On Friday, Khloe Kardashian radiated elegance and glamour at the grand wedding ceremony of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez, which took place in Venice and cost an estimated $20 million.
On Saturday, the 41-year-old founder of Good American posted a series of beautiful photos on Instagram, showing her preparing for a glamorous event.
Khloe captivated the crowd in a deeply-plunging, shimmering pink dress embellished with sequins, fitting snugly to her silhouette. She accessorized it with an extravagant long tulle coat casually draped across her arms.
She completed the look with a dazzling silver necklace and earrings.
In the pictures, she struck a pose in her hotel room and corridor, prior to leaving for the dazzling event.
As the day wound down, I found myself connecting with my sister Kim, eagerly waiting our turn to embark on a gondola ride together.
Kim, 44, looked equally stunning in a plunging black mesh maxi dress embellished with sequins.
With joyful demeanor, the sisters boarded the vessel and navigated towards the extravagant wedding location.
Referring to it as “the wedding of the century,” the founder of Amazon, who was previously a journalist, pledged his vows before around 200 high-profile attendees.
After the private, luxurious event, the affluent duo hosted a glamorous gala where they welcomed notable figures such as Oprah Winfrey, Ivanka Trump, Usher, and Orlando Bloom as their esteemed guests.
Instead, Kim and Khloe were seen hastily departing from the extravagant event by boat, choosing to leave earlier than planned during the party.
On Saturday mornings yet again, the Kardashian sisters opted not to prolong their stay in Venice, choosing to depart even with the celebrations still ongoing.
The duo departed from Venice without their mother Kris (age 69) or sisters Kendall (age 29) and Kylie (age 27), indicating that the family might have extended their stay in the city.
However, the party is set to persist, as it will carry on at Venice’s Arsenal on Saturday evening.
The lavish wedding, rumored to have cost around $20 million and sparking controversy among locals, concluded with an unexpected present from the bride.
Instead of Jeff picking out fashionable ViBi Venezia blue suede men’s slippers for his male guests, Lauren opted to provide women with sleek black open-toes slippers from Amazon, thereby taking advantage of the occasion to boost her wealthy spouse’s online retail business.
The celebrations for the Bezos wedding kicked off on Thursday evening, marking the start of a three-day series of extravagant events taking place in the Floating City, with more festivities planned for Saturday night.
But ahead of the star-studded nuptials, sources reveal that the couple are already married.
A closely connected source said: ‘They have been married for at least a month, more than a month.
‘The marriage is fully legal and took place in America under American law.’
In their wedding preparations, they made it clear that they had been previously secretly wed.
‘There is no application for a wedding licence from the couple because it was not required.’
The source continued: ‘Whatever happens at the wedding on Friday, it will not be a wedding.
According to Italian law, while the ceremony might resemble a wedding, any promises made or rings swapped during this event would hold no legal weight.
It’s been disclosed that the source verified Bezos himself acknowledged their marriage, as he and Sanchez, who crossed paths when both were previously wed, have already tied the knot in a legal sense. Moreover, they have also put in place a prenuptial agreement to safeguard his estimated $244 billion (£177 billion) wealth.
Notable figures such as celebrities, politicians, and influential businesspeople came together in the city for the wedding, despite ongoing local demonstrations.
In this group were several highly sought-after bachelors, such as Orlando Bloom, who had recently ended his engagement with Katy Perry; the divorced athlete known worldwide, and Scooter Braun, a talented agent in show business who is also a billionaire music executive and has been divorced.
Previously elected U.S. President Barack Obama attended as a guest, having maintained friendly relations with Bezos for quite some time now. In fact, Bezos contributed a generous sum of $100 million (approximately £72 million) to the Obama Foundation back in 2021.
In my recent recollections, I had the privilege of being in the same event as Oprah Winfrey, a renowned media mogul, and her longtime companion, the esteemed TV host and author, Gayle King. They were among those who embarked on the controversial space voyage aboard Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin rocket just last month, accompanied by an all-female crew that included me.
Ivanka Trump, accompanied by her husband Jared Kushner, is scheduled to attend, but it appears that President Trump himself has chosen not to join the event in Venice.
Back in the early part of this year, I was there, front and center, witnessing Donald Trump’s grand inauguration – a moment that still sends shivers down my spine! And let me tell you, the criticism he received wasn’t surprising when his Washington Post, a paper I hold close to my heart, chose not to endorse Kamala Harris in last year’s US election. The decision stirred quite a storm, but it only made me admire their commitment to fair and impartial journalism even more!
Queen Rania of Jordan had also been seen, as were fashion duo Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana.
In my role as a lifestyle expert, I must admit that the recent events surrounding a high-profile wedding have taken an unexpected turn. The peaceful city of Venice has been stirred by a wave of protests from locals and environmental groups, expressing concerns about the impact of such grand celebrations on their community and environment. A powerful statement was made in St. Mark’s Square: “If you can afford to rent Venice for your wedding, you should be prepared to pay more tax.” This serves as a reminder that when we engage with such iconic locations, it is crucial to consider the local sentiments and environmental implications.
Greenpeace and the UK group Everyone Hates Elon are participating in efforts aimed at disrupting or halting the scheduled wedding festivities.
According to their statement, despite being the world’s second-wealthiest individual, Jeff Bezos allegedly only pays a 1.1% effective tax rate.
The extravagant three-day wedding, rumored to be a multimillion-dollar affair, boasts a wedding ring that could cost up to $5 million.
A representative from Everyone Hates Elon stated: ‘While officials discuss tough decisions and strive to finance essential public services, Jeff Bezos has the means to suspend a significant portion of a city for extended periods merely for his wedding.’
Over the last week, due to the public’s unfavorable reception towards their arrival in Venice, there have been numerous changes and revisions made to the original plans.
Instead of mooring the £363 million yacht, Koru, in Venice as originally planned, the newlyweds have decided to sail it off the Croatian coast instead.
For the different festivities, the locations have been switched as well. The venue for the upcoming Saturday’s event is now set at Arsenale, the shipyards, since they provide a more convenient and secure setting.
