When billionaires tie the knot, it’s anything but ordinary—and Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez are proving that point in grand fashion.
The couple is getting ready to say “I do” next week in Venice, Italy, and let’s just say the guest list is already a who’s who of Hollywood, business, fashion, and politics.
From lavish gifts to luxury yachts and celebrity sightings, their upcoming wedding has all the makings of the most talked-about event of the year.
A-List Guests, Five-Star Hotels, and a $500 Million Yacht
Bezos and Sánchez will reportedly stay with their immediate families on Jeff’s ultra-luxurious $500 million yacht, Koru, during the celebration.
As for their guests—fewer than 200 in total—they’ll be comfortably settled in nearby five-star hotels like the Hotel Cipriani and Aman Venice.
Guests are also expected to receive high-end gifts, including custom hand-blown glassware made by Venetian artisans from Laguna B.
With the event projected to cost between $15 million and $20 million, nothing is being left to chance.
Celebrity Friends Who Made the Cut
Lauren has spent years building close friendships with powerful women, and many of them are expected to be there.
Kim Kardashian, for instance, became close with Lauren after they went head-to-head in a fashion auction, only to bond and jet off to Paris together for fittings.
Kris Jenner is also part of Lauren’s inner circle and reportedly grew closer after attending a Beyoncé concert together in 2023.
Katy Perry, who joined a Blue Origin space mission with Jeff, may miss the wedding due to tour commitments, though her partner Orlando Bloom is expected to attend solo.
Long-time friends like Fox Sports host Charissa Thompson and actress Eva Longoria are almost certainly attending.
Actress Jessica Alba and TV personality October González—Lauren’s close friend and the wife of her ex, Tony González—are also likely to be there, along with their families.
Names like Oprah Winfrey, Gayle King, Jewel, Mick Jagger, and Kathy Hilton have also been floated, along with fashion and entertainment stars like Xochitl Gomez and Lucinda Aragon.
Business Titans and Billionaire Besties
The celebration isn’t just packed with celebrities—it also includes power players from the business world.
Elsa Marie Collins, a philanthropic powerhouse and close friend of Lauren’s, is likely attending.
Lauren has even donated $1 million to Elsa’s nonprofit, This Is About Humanity.
Also on the list? Veronica Grazer, attorney Lydia Kives, and Natasha Poonawalla of the world-renowned Serum Institute.
Other moguls expected to join include Bill Gates, TKO Group CEO Ari Emanuel, Barry Diller, and entrepreneur Tina Chen Craig.
Glam Squad and Fashion Elite Join the Festivities
Fashion insiders aren’t being left out either.
Australian model Miranda Kerr, makeup artist Amanda Diaz, stylists Jamie Mizrahi and Victoria Trilling, and designer Diane von Furstenberg are all expected to be part of the celebration.
Even Lauren’s younger sister and photo coach, Elena Blair, will be there to support her big moment.
Models Brooks Nader and Camila Morrone are also reportedly on the list, alongside other fashion icons from around the globe.
High-Profile Political Guests Are Also Expected
It wouldn’t be a true power wedding without a political twist. Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner are said to be invited, along with Karlie Kloss and husband Joshua Kushner.
There’s even speculation that Donald Trump and Melania might show up, especially considering that Bezos and Lauren had front-row seats at Trump’s inauguration.
Donald Trump Jr. and his girlfriend Bettina Anderson—who is reportedly friendly with Lauren—are also expected, according to Page Six.
A Wedding That’s Set to Make Headlines
With just days to go, Venice is bracing itself for one of the most glamorous, exclusive, and extravagant weddings the city has ever seen.
Whether it’s the billion-dollar guest list, the Hollywood-meets-space-exploration vibe, or the seamless blend of power and friendship, this celebration is destined to steal the spotlight.
Stay tuned—this isn’t just a wedding, it’s a cultural moment.
