Jeff Bezos and his fiancée, Lauren Sanchez, are reportedly dialing down their wedding costs. The couple will tie the knot in the romantic city of Venice, Italy, in a three-day celebration from June 24-26. A source exclusively revealed to the Daily Mail that the event will be small and low-key, in contrast to public perceptions of a grand wedding. The insider shared that their nuptials have “had a make-under.” The pair has reportedly lowered their wedding costs, partly due to criticism from the Blue Origin all-female crew space flight mission.
Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez don’t want their wedding to ‘lightning rod for inequities,’ says ‘source’
Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez are reportedly looking to keep their wedding as low-key as possible. According to the Daily Mail‘s exclusive report, the pair’s nuptials are expected to cost less than £10 million, with fewer than 200 guests, a sharp decrease given Bezos’s billionaire status. A source shared that their wedding plans are “understated” and “not an ostentatious blow out.”
According to the source, Bezos and Sanchez have realized that the effects of the Blue Origin all-female crew space mission weren’t in their favor. The couple is reportedly “responding to it by being less ‘Marie Antoinette.'” Despite the criticism, the insider claimed that the two are good people and that people have been underestimating them. The source continued, “They don’t want the wedding to be a lightning rod for inequities in the world. It’s just a wedding.”
Bezos and Sanchez are reportedly planning to have their wedding at the Fondazione Cini, a monastery located on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore. Last month, Page Six reported that the couple’s wedding is being set up by George and Amal Clooney’s wedding planners. The star-studded guest list includes Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump, Kris Jenner, and Kim Kardashian. Katy Perry, Eva Longoria, and their respective partners have also received invitations for the event.
Bezos popped the question to his fiancée during their vacation in Europe in 2023. Ahead of the wedding, Sanchez also hosted several of her close friends for a bachelorette party. Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Katy Perry, and more attended the gathering.
