Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez are not exactly sailing into their wedding quietly — the billionaire couple has reportedly gone full luxury takeover in Venice, Italy, ahead of their high-profile nuptials.
Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ that Bezos and his bride-to-be will stay at the iconic Aman Venice Hotel, one of the city’s most prestigious and jaw-dropping properties — and they’ve booked the entire place out.
Let’s just say this isn’t your average honeymoon suite.
🏛️ The Venue: Aman Venice — Old-World Glamour, Billionaire Budget
Built in 1550 and nestled along the Grand Canal, the Aman Venice is a 16th-century palazzo-turned-hotel where opulence meets Renaissance charm. And from June 25 through June 29, it will be entirely Bezos territory.
The entire property — suites, event spaces, and possibly even canalside entrances — has reportedly been reserved for Bezos, Sánchez, and their VIP guest list.
💰 Price Tag? Rooms start at a cool $2,000 per night and soar past $10,000 for ultra-exclusive suites. But for a man worth over $200 billion? Pocket change.
🛥️ Wait, No Yacht Wedding?
Here’s where things get interesting.
The couple’s 417-foot yacht, Koru, is currently docked in Croatia, just across the Adriatic Sea from Venice. Early reports suggested the power pair might be tying the knot aboard the mega-yacht — a floating mansion featuring its own sculpture of Lauren Sánchez as the figurehead.
But the decision to book out the Aman Venice raises eyebrows:
Are they changing plans for a land-based ceremony in a palazzo instead of the sea?
Or is the Aman simply the pre-party palace, with the vows still set for the open water?
Either way, Venice is watching — and buzzing with excitement (and a bit of protest).
👀 Locals Are Paying Attention… and So Are Protesters
Bezos and Sánchez have not gone unnoticed in Italy’s historic canal city.
While some locals are starstruck by the power couple’s presence, others have reportedly expressed frustration and concern, especially given Venice’s ongoing struggle with tourism, overcrowding, and its fragile ecosystem.
Still, the luxury takeover continues — A-list guests are expected, and security is already ramping up around the Aman.
💍 A Timeline of Bezos & Sánchez: Billionaire Romance Goals
Here’s how we got to this mega-wedding moment:
- 2019: Their romance goes public
- 2021: Bezos blasts off into space (literally) with Lauren cheering him on
- 2023: He proposes aboard Koru
- 2024–2025: They tour Europe, attend fashion week, and plan the wedding of the year
Now, their long-anticipated wedding week is finally here — and if these early moves are any sign, it’s going to be a five-day extravaganza of couture, canals, and serious coin.
🕊️ Still a Mystery: Where Will They Say “I Do”?
Despite all the buzz, one major question remains: Where exactly will the ceremony take place?
- On the 417-foot yacht?
- Inside the palatial Aman Venice?
- A secret historic church or museum?
- Or even multiple venues across several days?
For now, the only thing confirmed is that the wedding is happening this week, and it’s going to be one of the most lavish celebrity unions in recent memory.
