Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s lavish wedding

The billionaire couple had invited 200 of their nearest and dearest friends for a three-day extravaganza in the Italian lagoon city, where events included a welcome dinner, an outdoor wedding ceremony and a pajama party to top it all.

Guests included Bill Gates, Queen Rania of Jordan, Kim and Khloe Kardashian, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, Oprah Winfrey, Gayle King, Orlando Bloom and a host of other A-listers. India was represented by socialite Natasha Poonawalla, who had also joined Sanchez at her Paris bachelorette earlier.

The wedding itself was topped off with a “Dolce Notte” or “sweet night” pajama party where nobody showed up in actual nightwear. Bill Gates opted for designer pajamas from Prada, while Kim Kardashian wore a corset with a plunging neckline, sheer stockings, garters, heels and a massive robe.

Usher wore a blue tuxedo where the jacket resembled a robe, while Oprah Winfrey looked every bit the diva in a bronze silk outfit. The bride Lauren Sanchez opted for a pink Atelier Versace gown in silk and chiffon.

Gifts from Amazon

Sanchez earlier told Vogue about the gifts that guests will receive at the pajama-themed reception. Men will be gifted Vibi Venezia blue velvet Venetian slippers, while women will receive plush, black open-toe slippers from Amazon. The gifts are supposed to symbolise their two lives coming together. “So you have a little of both!” Sanchez explained.

Aside from this, guests also had goody bags in their rooms filled with traditional Venetian fare - including pastries from one of the city’s oldest pastry makers.
