Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez are married.
The billionaire businessman, 61, and his Emmy-winning fiancée, 55, exchanged vows June 27 in front of 200 guests during a star-studded ceremony in Venice, Italy, NBC News reported.
Sánchez confirmed the news the same day on Instagram by sharing a photo of herself wearing a white Dolce & Gabbana wedding gown with Bezos by her side in a dark tux. “06/27/2025,” she captioned the shot.
The former TV journalist changed her name on her newly wiped account to Lauren Sánchez Bezos.
Vogue also shared pics and videos of Sánchez in her gown to tease the magazine’s June 2025 digital cover story about the couple’s wedding.
“I’m just like so emotional … I’m going to be a mess, but in the best possible way,” Sánchez says in one video that showed her modeling her dress, which was inspired by the wedding gown Sophia Loren wore in the 1958 film “Houseboat.”
Sánchez added in the video that she wanted the couple’s wedding to be “filled with love.”
Bezos and Sánchez’s ceremony was the highlight of a planned three-day wedding celebration. The festivities, which are set to take place in multiple venue across Venice, were scheduled to begin with a welcome party on June 26, city hall officials previously told NBC News.
For days, celebrities have been arriving in Venice to celebrate with Bezos and Sánchez, who announced their engagement in 2023 after nearly four years of dating.
A-listers spotted in the scenic city in recent days include Oprah Winfrey, Tom Brady, Queen Raina of Jordan, Kim Kardashian, Sydney Sweeney, Tommy Hilfiger, Diane von Furstenberg, Domenico Dolce, Stefano Gabbana, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner.
Bezos and Sánchez have also been photographed out on the town on several occasions, with the bride-to-be turning heads with her eye-catching fashions.
On June 26, Sánchez was photographed wearing a strapless gold Schiaparelli gown with embroidered flowers and a corseted bodice as stepped onto a taxi boat with Bezos’ assistance.
The day before, she was seen wearing a one-shoulder Alexander McQueen gown from the late designer’s Spring 2003 collection.
Sánchez opened up to Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb about planning her wedding when she visited TODAY in November 2024.
“Thinking about the dress, I have to say. I do have a Pinterest, I’m just like every other bride,” she said, laughing.
