Bezos & Sanchez Return to Italy: A Love Story Continues Post-Venice Extravaganza

Jeff Bezos and his new wife Lauren Sanchez returned to Italy for Italian Tech Week in Turin, less than three months after their Venice wedding

SCANDALOUS! Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez Reunite in Italy Amid Backlash Over Their Extravagant Wedding

Just three months ago, the world witnessed the most talked-about wedding of the century - Jeff Bezos' nuptials to his stunning wife, Lauren Sanchez. The A-list couple tied the knot in an extravagant affair in Venice, surrounded by A-list guests and a reported $20 million price tag. Now, they're back on the scene, rekindling their romance in Italy at the prestigious Italian Tech Week 2025 in Turin.

The billionaire tech mogul, 61, and his beautiful bride, 55, couldn't wait to return to the European country, where their fairytale wedding still lingers in the minds of everyone who witnessed it. As they made a glamorous appearance at the convention, the power couple exuded an aura of confidence and adoration for each other.

When Bezos wasn't delivering remarks on stage, he and his lovely wife were inseparable, strolling hand-in-hand through the crowds. Lauren flashed a radiant smile as they posed for a photo, their chemistry palpable. The newlyweds looked like the epitome of a power couple, with an unflappable expression that hinted at their deep connection.

Lauren's chic outfit was on point - a white turtleneck, matching slacks, and a cream Celine belt added to her sophisticated look. She donned sunglasses over her eyes, exuding elegance and poise. Meanwhile, Bezos opted for a blue button-down shirt, jeans, and leather footwear, completing his sharp ensemble with beaded bracelets on his left wrist.

Their appearance at the Italian Tech Week 2025 convention comes just three months after their ultra-exclusive wedding in Venice. Described as "the wedding of the century," the ceremony took place on San Giorgio Maggiore island, with almost 200 VIP guests in attendance. The high-profile nuptials were a star-studded affair, featuring guests like the Kardashian sisters, Oprah Winfrey, Ivanka Trump, Usher, and Orlando Bloom.

However, the wedding was not without controversy. Locals expressed outrage over the reported $20 million price tag, and activists criticized the couple for their excessive display of wealth in a city struggling with economic issues. Despite the backlash, Bezos and Sanchez seemed to be in bliss, exchanging vows on the picturesque island surrounded by crystal-clear waters.

Their love story began two years ago when Bezos proposed to Sanchez aboard his $500 million superyacht. The Amazon founder, who is known for his love of luxury and extravagance, spared no expense in making their special day truly unforgettable. The couple's wedding week was a closely guarded secret, with the guest list being extremely exclusive - around 70 out of 200 attendees were family members.

Sanchez made waves during the wedding when she debuted her stunning Schwartz ring, valued between $1.5 million and $3 million. The bejeweled beauty spoke to Vogue ahead of the big day, revealing that they didn't follow many traditional wedding customs. "We don't have a lot of traditions that we're keeping," Sanchez said with a smile.

However, she did incorporate some unique elements into their ceremony. For example, her Dolce earrings served as the traditional "something borrowed." But what really caught everyone's attention was her decision to carry an artifact from space - a souvenir she obtained during her 11-minute space journey aboard Blue Origin. The piece of cosmic wonder had a special significance for Sanchez, who described it as "one of the most profound experiences I've ever had in my life."

"Seeing Earth from space, I came down and I couldn't describe it," she told Vogue. "It was the greatest experience I've ever had. Jeff said, 'It's gonna change you more than you think,' and it completely has, visually, spiritually."

The couple's Italian getaway may have been a welcome break for them, but the controversy surrounding their wedding still lingers. Will they be able to weather the storm of criticism that followed their lavish nuptials? Only time will tell.
