Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and former journalist Lauren Sanchez , engaged for two years, are reportedly set to wed next week in Venice, Italy, with a star-studded guest list. An insider revealed to the Daily Mail that VIP attendees will receive lavish gifts, including hand-blown glassware from local Venetian glassmaker Laguna B.
San Giorgio Maggiore island likely to be off limits for visitors
According to the publication, Bezos’ $500 million superyacht, Koru, will be anchored off San Giorgio Maggiore island, home to the historic 16th-century Basilica of San Giorgio Maggiore. The insider noted that the island will be closed to visitors from June 24 to June 29, with Venice’s mayor speculating the wedding may take place on the yacht. A private tender service will reportedly ferry guests between the island and the yacht.
The report further said that Bezos has reserved the Scuola Grande della Misericordia, one of Venice’s grandest historic buildings, from June 26 to June 28, though its connection to the wedding remains unclear. The guest list, expected to be under 200, may include celebrities like Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom, and members of the Trump family.
Jeff Bezos-Lauren Sachez wedding gift for guests
The Italian source told the Daily Mail that each guest will receive custom glassware from Laguna B, a company founded by Marie Brandolini, who was inspired by traditional Murano glassmaking. Her son took over after her passing in 2013, per Vogue. The vibrant, handcrafted glassware, featuring stripes and floral designs, retails for $167 per large cup.
The insider further added that guests will receive additional “opulent” gifts, though specifics remain undisclosed. Sanchez is known for her love of designer bags, such as the $5,750 Balenciaga 9AM Coffee Cup Clutch Bag and a $7,000 crystal-adorned Judith Leiber UFO-inspired bag gifted by the Kardashian family after her Blue Origin space trip.
The report said that Rosa Salva Venetia, a local bakery, will provide pastries like tiramisu, cream-filled pastries, and fritelli for the multi-day celebration, though it will not supply the wedding cake. According to a 2023 Vogue interview, Bezos has left the wedding planning to Sanchez, ensuring an extravagant affair.
