Lauren Sánchez and Jeff Bezos are married! The Amazon founder and former journalist tied the knot in Venice, Italy over three extravagant days. The nuptials are reported to have cost around $50 million, taking over luxury hotels, yachts and high security on account of the attendants!
With a guest list of just 200 people, the guests of the lavish wedding included some of the world’s favourite VIPs! Dressed to impress, celebrities brought their A-Game when it came to accessories, so let’s check out the best jewellery at the Bezos-Sánchez wedding…
Kendall Jenner
Channelling Italian bombshell, supermodel of the Kardashian Clan, Kendall Jenner, wowed in 245 carats of Lorraine Schwartz Colombian emeralds. Renowned for their vivid green hue and exceptional quality, Columbian emeralds are particularly rare. To have curated both matching emerald earrings and necklace is an admirable feat that speaks of Schwartz’ craftsmanship and skill.
The necklace features 110 carats of Colombian emeralds with a 65-carat feature teardrop emerald at the centre. Kendall wears pear cut drop emerald earrings to match, styled with messy updo that could rival Pamela Anderson! Symbolic of love and new beginnings, emerald jewellery is a perfect choice for a romantic wedding!
Victoria Ceretti
The model was proclaimed to be the wedding of the century’s ‘best dressed guest’ throughout the festivities, turning heads with her refined looks. She wore a cluster-style diamond necklace with elegant slick back bun as she arrived on the famous venetian water-taxi and a simple diamond choker necklace with pear drop diamond for the final event of the ceremony, despite suffering a wardrobe malfunction when her vintage Dolce & Gabbana gown started to snag and rip!
Jennifer Goicoechea Raymond
Wife to the king of R&B Usher, Jennifer Goicoechea Raymond also donned dreamy emeralds to the event of the year. After calling her his boo for five years, the couple recently sealed the knot in Las Vegas shortly after this half-time performance at the Super Bowl 2024.
Crafted by Glenn Spiro, the diamond and emerald necklace cascaded down her décolletage, paired with leopard print to create a fierce and feminine look!
Kim Kardashian
Kim Kardashian styled her 1982 vintage Versace copper brown dress with statement diamond necklaces. Crafted by London jewellery house Moussaieff, the layered necklaces combined brown, yellow and white diamonds together to create statement tonal pieces that complimented Kim’s dress perfectly. The lower necklace combined pear, heart and marquise cut stones with large champagne diamond pear cut drop, whilst the choker used white pear-cut diamonds for a striking look.
Syndney Sweeny
The Euphoria star leaned into the romantic setting styling a custom Oscar de la Renta pink strapless gown with long blonde waves and Messika pear-cut diamond necklace. The Parisian jewellery brand is well known for crafting striking high jewellery for celebrities including Rihanna, Beyoncé and Gigi Hadid.
This is not the first time the blonde bombshell as donned Messika diamonds – At the Oscars After-Party organised by Vanity Fair, she stunned in a multi-row diamond necklace set weighing a total 0f 63 carats in total.
Lauren Sánchez’s Wedding Jewellery
Now time for the bride herself! We were truly amazed at just how bright and large the former journalist’s ring actually was when she stepped
Lauren Sánchez’s Pink Engagement Ring
Bezos proposed to Sánchez with the ring in May 2023 with a large pink diamond ring. The ring is believed to be an insane 30 carats, cushion cut and set on a pave diamond band. The engagement ring was thought to have cost around $5million but is now believed to be worth more due to the increased rarity of pink diamonds!
A pink engagement ring is a sweet and romantic choice symbolizing love and tenderness. Beyond pink diamonds there are pink sapphires, tourmalines and topaz pieces that make beautiful and striking pieces!
Lauren Sánchez’s Wedding Ring
The bride swapped out her rose toned ring in favour of an even bigger (yes bigger!) diamond ring after her wedding ceremony. She debuted a brilliant white diamond estimated to have cost $10million, a fifth of the price of the whole wedding! But how many carats is Lauren Sanchez’s engagement ring?! Well, if 30 carats weren’t enough, Lauren’s new ring weighs between 35 -40 carats and stands out as a statement ring.
The ring was made in collaboration between the bride and celebrity favourite Lorraine Schwartz. Experts believe the diamond to be a flawless D colour and extremely high clarity, explaining the high price tag.
The oval cut engagement ring has been a popular choice amongst celebrity brides over the past years, with the likes of Hailey Bieber, Kourtney Kardashian and Blake Lively loving the elongated and refined look.
Don’t worry though, when you marry a billionaire, you don’t have to choose between rings, as Lauren went on to swap her pink engagement ring to her right hand and wear both stunning rings!
From dazzling emeralds to diamond rings you could see from space, the Bezos-Sánchez wedding wasn’t just a celebration of love but it was a masterclass in opulence, personal style, and statement jewellery.
