Lauren Sánchez radiated joy during her recent date night as an engaged woman, showcasing her excitement for the next chapter of her life.
The stunning bride-to-be opted for a timeless Alexander McQueen dress while enjoying a pre-wedding dinner with Jeff Bezos in the picturesque city of Venice, Italy, on Thursday evening.
This exquisite gown features button-embellished stripes and a sophisticated one-shoulder neckline. The elegant navy blue bias-cut dress is a part of the late designer’s iconic spring 2003 collection. Notably, fashion boutique Timeless Vixen recently sold this same dress for $5,200, leaving it uncertain if Sánchez was the purchaser.
Sánchez, 55, styled her hair in soft waves, completing her look with a chic black clutch and strappy sandals that added a touch of sophistication.
Meanwhile, Bezos, 61, opted for a smart casual look featuring a sleek black suit paired with a cream T-shirt and stylish sunglasses that complemented his outfit.
The couple, who publicly declared their relationship in 2019, reached the milestone of engagement four years later. They were seen beaming with joy and waving at admirers during their outing.
The couple arrived in Venice via helicopter and were gracefully assisted into a water taxi, marking a luxurious entry into the romantic city.
Sánchez stunned in a chic sleeveless black gown paired with elegant stilettos, showcasing her fashion sense and poise.
A host of celebrities have been spotted flocking to the enchanting city this week in anticipation of the couple’s upcoming wedding festivities.
High-profile attendees, including Ivanka Trump and her family, arrived on Wednesday, followed by Oprah Winfrey, Kim Kardashian, and Orlando Bloom the day after.
Sources indicate that wedding guests have been kept in the dark regarding the specific locations of the festivities, but they have been provided with mood boards for outfit inspiration.
“Guests are unaware of the event locations,” a source recently shared with Page Six. “They have been given schedules but no details, as they will simply be taken there.”
Sánchez and Bezos are maintaining a level of secrecy as part of their plan to outsmart potential protests.
“The couple has deliberately kept multiple options open, reserving various venues across different dates,” a Venetian insider informed us.
This strategy aims to mislead both paparazzi and protesters, while also ensuring that they have contingency plans in place to accommodate any last-minute logistical challenges.
However, reports suggest that the couple is expected to host a welcome ceremony at the beachside restaurant La Pagoda, setting the stage for a beautiful celebration.
The actual wedding is rumored to take place at Teatro Verde on the stunning island of San Giorgio Maggiore, promising a picturesque backdrop for their vows.
Both Sánchez and Bezos have previously been married, with Sánchez having been married to Patrick Whitesell and Bezos to MacKenzie Scott.
