Lauren Sanchez's and Jeff Bezos' Wedding Is Prime for Fashion
Lights, camera, months of speculation, Lauren Sanchez's and Jeff Bezos' wedding was a full throttle celebration in Venice. In recent days, celebrity guests like Oprah Winfrey, Gayle King, Barry Diller, Diane Von Furstenberg, Kim and Khloe Kardashian, Kylie, Kendall and Kris Jenner, Tom Brady, Wendi Deng, Sydney Sweeney, Tommy Hilfiger, Dee Ocleppo, Leonardo DiCaprio, Stacey Bendet, Karlie Kloss, Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner, Orlando Bloom and Usher have been spotted strolling on the streets and boarding classic mahogany the festivities are being chronicled by international media outlets, attendees seem to have some restrictions. Upon their arrivals, wedding guests had their phones stowed away, according to one source. Many of the designer label-loving attendees packed accordingly. That's a good thing, since their style is being scrutinized at every turn. Even Kylie Jenner's three-year-old son Aire landed an article in The Daily Mail for carrying a stuffed monkey that may have been the Baby Milo bag that Timothée Chalamet had on the red carpet previously.

And Venice is a glorious place to have a wedding and celebrate with people that you care about. This is life at its wealthiest level. And we get to see it and view how they are celebrating their wedding. It's kind of wonderful.'While 'it's unfortunate that it gets some nasty publicity along with it,' Klein said, 'that's to be expected.' Suggesting that protesters were 'protesting their own cause,' the designer added, 'I'm sure that Jeff Bezos is very generous to Venice and the world.'Even Thursday night's thunderstorm and downpours didn't appear to dampen guests' moods en route to a dinner in the 15th-century Madonna dell Orto church. The Schiaparelli-clad Sanchez and others smiled, ducking under blue umbrellas. The hue matched Amazon's brand color of choice. An Amazon spokesperson declined to comment about whether the umbrellas are available on the website, or if anything Sanchez and Bezos wear this weekend will be sold by the e-tailer. All of the wedding could bode well with consumers, as Amazon Prime Day 2025 will be held July 8 to 11. The revelry is 'a great opportunity' for Amazon to gain positive publicity, according to retail analyst Bruce Winder. 'When you think about the venue, the celebrities in attendance and the outfits guests are wearing, it makes for an incredible once-in-a-decade event. People love celebrity weddings, and their nuptials create inspiration for soon-to-be couples and other event planners,' he said. As for the bride's wedding gown, she wore a body-sculpting Dolce & Gabbana gown with lace sleeves that she described on Instagram as 'not just a gown a piece of poetry.' Sanchez needed no introduction to the designers, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana. She and Bezos reportedly met them a few years ago, when their respective yachts were anchored side by side in Portofino. Sanchez and Bezos were also front-row guests when her son Nikko Gonzalez modeled in the designers' runway show in Sardinia. In addition, the coverage helps promote Amazon's increased presence within the accessible luxury products area — 'albeit indirectly,' Winder said. The no-gifts event and the couple's donations to Venice nonprofits 'shows their sensitivity to the situation,' he added. Their invitation informed guests that donations were being made to UNESCO's Venice office, CORILA and to the Venice International University. After wearing an Oscar de la Renta ensemble for her first day in Venice, Trump turned up in a pale pink strapless gown from Tony Ward all of these camera-ready celebrity-studded moments will be captured in a photo shoot remains a question mark. Asked if Annie Leibovitz, a Vogue favorite who is traveling out of the country, is shooting the nuptials, a staffer in her studio declined to comment. Vogue had an advance exclusive with Sanchez about her wedding dress that was shot by Tierney with the Venetian Gothic architecture and celadon-colored canals, the 200 invitees are getting a taste of traditional pastries from Venice's oldest bakery Rosa Salva. Antonio Rosa said he has been busy making pastries that were delivered in boxes for the wedding guests. The sixth-generation business owner, who uses Amazon to buy things he can't find in Venice, like trays to serve coffee on at the Rosa Salva Hotel, was enthusiastic about how the Sanchez-Bezos wedding is drawing attention to for the current scene, Salva said, 'It's a normal day in Venice like any others. There's no confusion — no protesters.' Earlier this week, Greenpeace and activists from the U.K. action group Everyone Hates Elon rolled out a huge banner imprinted with 'If you can rent Venice for your wedding you can pay more tax.' Greenpeace's Christine Gebeneter described the wedding as 'a symbol of an extreme overconsumption lifestyle, which is made possible by lax tax rules for billionaires.' She said, 'We ask governments to implement a tax on ultra-rich individuals, so that those contributing over-proportionately to the climate and nature crisis pay what they owe to our societies.'CORILA, the Consortium for the Coordination of Research on the Venice Lagoon, received 'a generous donation' from Bezos and Sanchez that will be used to 'help preserve Venice for future generations,' according to the nonprofit's Pierpaolo Campostrini. The couple did not ask CORILA 'to specify the project for which the money will be spent,' he said. That will be decided by CORILA's board in the following weeks, Campostrini said. A spokesperson at the Venice International University declined to specify the amount of the Sanchez-Bezos donation. A media request to UNESCO was the worldwide media spotlight shining bright on Venice, that hadn't translated to major hikes in shopping at Noventa di Piave Designer Outlet, which has outposts for Prada, Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Bottega Veneta and more. A staffer at the shopping center said Friday, 'We must admit that no direct impact has been observed on our business so far due to Jeff Bezos' wedding. Nonetheless, we are pleased for the newlyweds and for the opportunity this event has provided to enhance the city of Venice.'

Truth no bride will admit about Kylie Jenner's wedding guest move
When Kylie Jenner stepped out at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's wedding, she knew exactly what she was doing. Her plunging, corsetted 'icy blue' dress (which, to anyone with eyes, is white) was destined for a million paparazzi photos and a thousand online debates. In the age of Instagram, every celebrity outing is an opportunity to make a statement, and the Bezos-Sanchez wedding was no exception. It was all about the spectacle. Jenner's bride-adjacent outfit felt intentional and designed to go viral – and it did. Social media erupted. Vogue 's Instagram post of the look was flooded with comments like, 'Who the f**k wears white to a wedding?' Others called it 'tacky' and said, 'You can't buy class'. One commenter asked, 'Has Kylie never been to a wedding before?' Now, you might think this is a trivial matter about rich people and fashion faux pas. And it is. But as someone who got married this year, I can tell you the personal toll a move like this can take. At my April wedding, which, surprisingly, didn't cause an entire Italian city to grind to a halt and was not attended by the Kardashian-Jenner clan, one of my friends wore cream. I know what you're thinking. Cream isn't white. And you're right. But it was close enough to cause a double-take in photos. I gently let her know it made me uncomfortable, but she insisted it 'wasn't white,' so it wasn't going to be an issue. And while, yes, it technically wasn't white, it did make me wonder why, out of all the colours in the world, she had to pick that dress. Here's the thing. In this day and age, many wedding guests, whether they're Kylie Jenner or my friend, seem to forget the basics of wedding etiquette. They get caught up in the moment, in what they're wearing, in how they will look in photos. And I get it. Weddings are a rare chance to dress up, to be seen, and frankly, to look hot. But somewhere along the way, the unspoken rule of 'don't wear white' has been forgotten. In fear of being labelled a 'bridezilla', I let the issue go and didn't say anything more about it. When the big day arrived, I was so caught up in the excitement of getting married that I hardly noticed or cared what anyone else was wearing. I was too busy laughing, dancing, and trying not to make ugly crying faces as I walked down the aisle (I didn't quite succeed at that last one). But in the months afterwards, a sour taste lingered whenever I thought about that cream dress. It wasn't really about the dress itself – it was about the fact that, out of all the possible outfits, my friend chose to flirt with crossing the line, and even after I told her I wasn't okay with it, she persisted. And while everyone told me I was being petty to care, I couldn't shake the feeling that it was about more than just the dress. You really don't understand until you're a bride, groom, or anyone planning a wedding, for that matter. You (hopefully) only get one day in your life where everything is about you. When a friend, who could quite literally wear anything to your wedding, chooses to push boundaries with their outfit, it makes you wonder: why? Is it an innocent choice, or a subtle power play? In the words of Succession, 'Was this a snubbing?!' My friend told me it was the only dress she could find that made her feel confident, and while I want her to feel her best, surely, there's a wedding pecking order in terms of who deserves to feel the best. I even worry I seem vain for discussing this. But the comments on Vogue 's post validate me, suggesting that for most people, wearing white to a wedding is still a big no-no. If we give Jenner the benefit of the doubt and assume Sanchez approved her outfit, I'm still baffled as to why she chose to make a statement at that moment, on someone else's special day. But honestly, maybe I shouldn't be that surprised. For celebrities, controversy is just another form of publicity, and maybe Sanchez was even in on it to create more buzz for the wedding, not that it needed it. But for the rest of us, it can feel more like a personal slight. So, if you're invited to a wedding soon, please, please, please, think twice about wearing pale colours. You might just make someone feel a little less special on their big day.

Outrage as Kylie Jenner Commits Ultimate Faux Pas at Bezos' Wedding
Lauren Sánchez will not be the only one wearing white when she tells Jeff Bezos, 'I do.' Photos from Friday afternoon show Kylie Jenner, 27, stepping into a boat wearing an off-white dress—a known wedding no-no, even for a ceremony in Venice, Italy. Mario Nawfal, an influencer on X with over 2.1 million followers, slammed Jenner's sartorial choice. 'While fashion icons flocked to Venice, one outfit stole the spotlight for all the wrong reasons,' he said. 'Ivanka Trump and Oprah Winfrey were among the A-listers turning heads at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's star-studded ceremony. Then, Kylie Jenner showed up in a white, form-fitting dress ... breaking the number one rule of wedding guest etiquette.' InStyle, which scolded Jenner for 'breaking a major wedding guest rule,' described her dress as a 'creamy white frock that featured a daringly-low plunging neckline, spaghetti straps, black bow details, lace accents throughout, a corset bodice, and a slinky silhouette.' Other A-listers stunned in long dresses and tuxedos as they descended upon Venice's Church of San Giorgio Maggiore, but nobody else appeared to wear white. Others photographed galavanting in the city of water include the rest of the Jenner-Kardashian clan as well as Oprah Winfrey and Tom Brady, who boarded a boat to the ceremony with the musician Usher. President Donald Trump's eldest daughter, Ivanka, and her husband, Jared Kushner, also made the trip. Hollywood was also out en masse. Leonardo DiCaprio, 50, is attending the ceremony with 27-year-old Vittoria Ceretti. Also in attendance are Orlando Bloom, who opted for a tuxedo, and Sydney Sweeney, who arrived wearing a short black dress. Bezos, 61, waved at a crowd as he was whisked from the ritzy Aman Hotel to the island of San Giorgio Maggiore for his ceremony. Weekend festivities are expected to cost Bezos an eye-popping $50 million. Still, that is a drop in the bucket for the fourth-richest man in the world, who Forbes estimates is worth $232 billion. Sánchez, 55, is yet to show off her wedding gown, but reports say it was designed by Dolce & Gabbana. She and Bezos traveled to Milan, Italy, in March to get fitted for their big day, which has been hyped as being the wedding of the century, despite protesters and Mother Nature's best efforts to spoil it.

Telling detail in Kylie Jenner's group chat text with Hailey Bieber amid marriage crisis
Kylie Jenner took to Instagram on Friday to share a rare glimpse at her group chat including close friend Hailey Bieber. The 27-year-old mogul revealed the name she has the model, 28, saved as when she posted a screenshot of a text thread labeled 'Love Island.' Hailey's contact card is missing her Bieber surname and simply reads, 'Hailey Rhode,' her first and middle names. The Rhode skincare founder has been married to troubled pop star Justin Bieber since 2018 and they share a nearly-one-year old son, Jack Blues. It comes amid rumors of marriage woes between the Biebers as the singer has displayed worrisome behavior in recent months. Kylie captioned her Instagram Stories post featuring the text exchange, 'the group chat when not everyone has watched the latest episode.' The 27-year-old mogul revealed the name she has the model, 28, saved as when she posted a screenshot of a text thread labeled 'Love Island' Hailey's contact card is missing her Bieber surname and simply reads, 'Hailey Rhode,' her first and middle names The excerpts from her friends where sent in invisible ink, so as not to reveal any unwanted Love Island spoilers. Included in the exclusive thread were other friends saved under 'Victoria Princess,' 'Sydney,' and 'Devon Carlson.' Hailey contributed multiple messages, proving she had a lot to say about the popular Peacock reality dating series. 'Justin's been a hard person to deal with recently because of what he's going through,' a source dished to Us Weekly earlier this week. 'It's been really hard on her.' The person added: 'Family issues have clouded her success.' 'Justin's going through a difficult time, and Hailey is giving him room to get himself back on track. He's doing his best, but it's tough,' a second source told the outlet. The second insider claimed the pair have been enduring more 'ups and downs' than usual and 'things have been very tense in the last month.' 'Hailey's worried about Justin, especially with a [baby at home]. He hasn't been down like this in quite some time, so there's concern,' it was revealed. As Justin continues to spark concern online over his bizarre social media posts, Hailey is said to feel frustrated over his 'loose cannon' antics. But, ultimately, the person close to the couple said: 'She knows that's part of the industry and who she's married to.' 'They don't talk about divorce,' the first source insisted. The second insider confirmed the odds of them calling it quits 'are very slim, especially because of their faith.' 'Faith is a big part of their life,' the source said. 'They believe they are soulmates and meant for each other.'
