BILLIONAIRE Jeff Bezos has sent out invites to his highly anticipated mega wedding – which will reportedly take place on his $500million superyacht.

The second richest man in the world has been engaged to bombshell supermodel Lauren Sanchez for two years – and their wedding has finally been confirmed for this summer in Venice, Italy.

The lavish wedding will reportedly take place on the Amazon boss’s $500million superyacht called Koru, but may include luxury hotels too.

Expected guests include President Trump, Oprah Winfrey, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kim Kardashian and Bill Gates.

61-year-old Bezos popped the question to Sanchez with a $2.5million ring on the same boat in May 2023, after five years of dating.

The couple hosted a decadent engagement party their megayacht in Positano, Italy in August 2023.

Guests included DiCaprio and Gates, as well as the Queen of Jordan Rania Al Abdullah, Hollywood star Tobey Maguire and TV icon Kris Jenner.

That same year, 55-year-old Sanchez, a former U.S. TV journalist and helicopter pilot, told Vogue that she “blacked out a bit” during their proposal after seeing her multimillion-dollar 20-carat ring.

Bezos, whose estimated net worth is $212billion, reportedly placed the ring under her pillow before Sanchez found and opened the box.

Local media have speculated that the wedding may take place in the top two luxury hotels in Venice – as it would be practically impossible to anchor the megayacht in the most beautiful area of the city, Arsenale.

Speculation stirred after Gritti Palace and the seven-star Aman hotel were fully booked out from June 26 to June 29 this summer.

The Aman, a luxurious boutique 16th century palazzo, is where Hollywood legend George Clooney and his wife exchanged vows in a “private, symbolic” ceremony.

Rooms at both hotels start from $3,200 a night, but can cost up to ten times that amount depending on season and suite size.

In any case, the wedding on Koru in Italy beats out previous speculation that the pair were set to marry last December in Aspen, Colorado.

The bride-to-be has also revealed that she’s already chosen her dress, believed to be from Oscar de la Renta, and will be styled by Vogue boss Anna Wintour.

As a pre-wedding gift, Sanchez will also fly up to space on her billionaire fiance’s rocket in May.

The New Shepard spaceship will fly up for an 11-minute sub-orbital flight with an all-female crew – including pop star Katy Perry.

Sanchez has previously said that her fiance inspires her: “He’s so happy, he inspires me every day.

“He makes me a better person every day. He’s the most loving human I know.”

Meanwhile Bezos has told reporters: “Lauren is the most generous, most big-hearted person that you would ever meet… She never misses a birthday.

“The network of people that she gives birthday presents to is gigantic.

“And that’s just a small example.”

The pair began dating in 2019, but avoided being seen together until finalising their respective divorces.

Bezos and his ex-wife, MacKenzie Scott finalized their divorce in April 2019, after more than 25 years of marriage.

They former couple share four children.

Sánchez and her ex-husband, Patrick Whitesell, settled their divorce in October 2019, after 13 years together.
