Newlyweds Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez Bezos pack on PDA ahead of star-studded wedding celebration
Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez Bezos were spotted sharing a kiss before leaving their hotel for a celebration after their lavish nuptials in Venice, Italy.
The billionaire and the former journalist were photographed beaming at each other before embracing on Saturday.
Lauren wore a strapless pale pink chiffon gown with silver embroidery along with dangling diamond earrings while Jeff sported a black suit.
Several of the couple's celebrity guests were also seen in glamorous attire while heading out for the third day of the wedding festivities.
Media mogul Oprah Winfrey donned a high-necked brown satin pantsuit with feathered cuffs while exiting a hotel with her friend, TV host Gayle King, who was clad in a floral cape over a cream-colored satin dress.
The two carried handheld fans and Winfrey waved at onlookers as they made their way down the stairs.
Kylie Jenner was spotted in a white fringe crop top with a matching long skirt while riding in a water taxi with her mother Kris Jenner and sister Kendall Jenner. Kris wore a black and white patterned coat with black feathered trim while Kendall sported a royal blue velvet and chiffon hooded minidress.
Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Brooks Nader showed off her curves in a black off-the-shoulder bodysuit with a lace overlay as she was helped into a water taxi.
Earlier in the day, the new Mr. and Mrs. Bezos were seen out and about after saying, "I do" on Friday.
Lauren and Jeff were pictured arriving at Harry's Bar in Venice, Italy. The couple smiled and waved at the masses as they were escorted by bodyguards.
In some photos, Lauren could be seen sporting a wedding ring, sans her striking engagement ring.
Several other celebrities joined the newlyweds at the venue Saturday. Usher and his wife, Jennifer Goicoechea, were seen arriving at the event, while Kris Jenner and her boyfriend, Corey Gamble, made their own appearance. A reportedly newly single Orlando Bloom was also in attendance.
Model Karlie Kloss and actress Sydney Sweeney were seen leaving the restaurant as well.
Friday was the couple's big day.
Shortly after tying the knot, Lauren took to Instagram to debut her wedding dress and new name. Her updated Instagram account now reads, "Lauren Sánchez Bezos."
"06/27/2025," she captioned her post, adding a red heart. She also debuted her wedding gown on the cover of Vogue.
Her Dolce & Gabbana wedding dress was a mermaid-style lace gown with sheer long sleeves and a high neckline. She told Vogue in her cover story she felt "like a princess."
She acknowledged that her wedding gown was more conservative than the revealing looks she has worn in the past.
"It is a departure from what people expect," she said, "from what I expect — but it's very much me."
Lauren said she was expecting Jeff to be surprised.
"It is a departure from what people expect, from what I expect — but it's very much me."
"Yes. I think he will be pleasantly surprised. I think he's going to be so happy. I mean, it's so elegant. It's timeless," she said.
Her two sons, Nikko and Evan, walked her down the aisle, she revealed to Vogue. Her daughter, Ella, was her maid of honor and delivered a reading during the wedding ceremony. All three of her kids, whom she shares with ex-husband Patrick Whitesell, were wearing Dolce & Gabbana for her wedding.
A-list guests arrived in style for the wedding, including Oprah Winfrey and best friend Gayle King. Also seen making their way to the festivities were Ivanka Trump and Karlie Kloss, along with tech titan Bill Gates and Bezos' father, Miguel Bezos.
Celebrities have been flooding the Italian streets for days prior to the luxurious wedding, one of the year's most talked-about celebrations.
On Thursday, celebrities such as Bloom, Tom Brady, Kim Kardashian, DiCaprio, Kylie Jenner and others boarded water taxis at various luxurious hotels in Venice, Italy, ahead of the couple's extravagant welcome party.
According to People, the couple hosted a welcome party for their guests in a closed cloister adjacent to the Madonna dell'Orto church Thursday night.
Guests reportedly arrived in a convoy of about 30 boats. According to the outlet, guests were served pizza cooked onsite by a famous Neapolitan chef.
Throughout the day, baskets of white and purple flowers were brought in to decorate the venue, along with a piano, People reported.

Jay-Z Joins Beyonce on Stage on Cowboy Carter Tour in Paris, Omits Kanye West's Name in Hit Song
Jay-Z reunited with his wife, Beyoncé, for their first live performance together in six years on Sunday, June 22. Jay-Z — real name Shawn Carter — joined his superstar spouse on stage for her third and final Cowboy Carter Tour performance at Paris' Stade de France. The couple reeled off a string of their biggest hits, including 'Crazy in Love' and 'Drunk in Love,' which was remixed with Beyoncé's song 'Partition.' The rapper also treated Paris to a live rendition of 'N****s in Paris,' his hit collaboration with Kanye West from their 2011 Watch the Throne album. Jay-Z notably tweaked one specific lyric referring to his longtime collaborator. Instead of rapping, 'Just might let you meet Ye,' he said, 'Just might let you meet Bey,' per fan footage shared via social media. A Complete Timeline of Kanye West and Jay-Z's Relationship: From Collaborations to Falling Out While Jay-Z, 55, and West, 48, were once close friends, they appear to have had a falling out in recent years. In a since-deleted X post in April, West claimed that the drama stems from their collaboration on the song 'Jail,' which appeared on his 2021 album, Donda. 'Why did Jay Z have to say 'no red hat' on Jail,' West wrote via X. 'That s*** tore me to my soul. We fought about it and he told me either leave that line on there or take my verse off. Me wearing the red hat was the most stand out example of me going against 'the program.' Do you guys think he was instructed to say that?' In Jay-Z's verse on the track, he rapped, 'Told him, 'Stop all of that red cap, we goin' home' / Not me with all of these sins, castin' stones / This might be the return of The Throne (Throne) / Hova and Yeezus, like Moses and Jesus.' Everything Kanye West Lost After Series of Antisemitic Social Media Posts: Talent Agency and More The lines were a reference to West's support of President Donald Trump, which often saw the rapper wearing a red 'Make America Great Again' cap. In March, West made headlines for disparaging posts about Jay-Z and Beyoncé's twins, Rumi and Sir, 8. (Jay-Z and Beyoncé, 43, also share daughter Blue Ivy, 13.) Shortly after his tweets about Jay-Z's kids, West apologized in additional X posts, writing, 'I LOVE JAY Z AND I DO FEEL BAD.' He also claimed he was hurt by Jay-Z not attending his 2014 wedding to now-ex Kim Kardashian. 'I FELT LIKE BOTH HIM AND HIS WIFE COULD HAVE HELPED ME HAVE MORE LEVERAGE WITH MY KIDS,' West continued, referring to claims that he had been denied access to his four kids with Kardashian, 44. 'THEY COULD HAVE USED THEIR CULTURAL POSITION TO NOT JUST WATCH THE KARDASHIANS RUN ME OVER. S*** HURTS … SO F*** BOTH OF THEM CAUSE WHEN I NEEDED THEM IT WAS F*** ME.'

Rita Ora Said She Proposed To Taika Waititi The Way She Would've Wanted Someone To Propose To Her, And Sorry, I'm Sobbing
Rita Ora is sharing details of her engagement to Taika Waititi. The two began dating in 2021 after meeting at a barbecue at Taika's house in 2018, and in 2022, they got engaged. "Rita proposed to me," Taika previously told Vogue, "and I said 'yes' instantly." Rita shared more details about their engagement this past week on the Begin Again podcast, recalling how it all went down during a trip to Palm Springs. Related: You Have Excellent Facial Recognition If You Can Recognize These 12 Celebrities As Kids "I rented a hotel room in Palm Springs. A really nice fancy one, filled it up with balloons — heart-shaped balloons and a heart-shaped cake, because I'm basically doing what I would have wanted for mine," she said, laughing. Related: 13 Accidental Celebrity Deaths That Shocked The World Rita said, "He walks into the room and he's like, 'What the hell? Is it Valentine's Day?' I'm like 'No!'" So "anyway, I get down on one knee, and he was just like, 'What is happening?'" Rita said she initially thought his reaction meant he would say no. She remembered thinking, "Maybe he doesn't want it. Maybe it's okay to just be in a relationship." "Which was fine with me, too," she clarified. "But I just wanted to lock him down." Luckily for her, Taika said yes: "He said, 'Absolutely. What the hell, get up.'" And we all know what happened from there — Taika and Rita got married in August 2022. "It was beautiful," Rita told the host of their nuptials.
