On Saturday, December 28, Jeff Bezos will begin a new chapter by marrying Lauren Sanchez in an extravagant ceremony in Aspen, Colorado, five years after the public revelation of their relationship, which led to Bezos’ divorce from MacKenzie Scott. This split saw him relinquish over $35.6 billion in Amazon stocks.
The wedding, costing $600 million, signifies the end of Bezos’ past and honors his future with Sanchez, nearly 20 months post-engagement. The celebration will feature a winter wonderland theme, embellished with sparkling lights and holiday decor, offering a cozy festive atmosphere for guests.
The exclusive guest list includes luminaries like Bill Gates, Queen Rania of Jordan, and Leonardo DiCaprio and features a special dinner at the renowned Matsuhisa restaurant.
