Bezos’s Venice Pajama Bash Draws Hollywood A-Listers
Apparently, when you’re worth $150 billion, the only logical way to end a wedding week is by swapping tuxedos for satin sleepwear and slippers. Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez closed out their Venice nuptials with a pajama-themed soiree that felt more like a billionaire slumber party than your average I-do fest. According to Vogue, guests were explicitly told to stash their phones—because nothing says “intimate gathering” like a room full of megastars boarding water taxis in matching silk ensembles. Third sentence’s observation: yes, silence is golden when you’re worth Bezos’s net worth, but the paparazzi still got every shot they wanted.
The festivities kicked off with a foam party aboard Bezos’s $500 million superyacht—because why not add a sudsy rave to your nuptial lineup? Then on June 28, nearly 200 of Hollywood’s finest slipped into luxe jammies for the final event on San Giorgio Maggiore. Usher arrived channeling James Bond’s sleepwear cousin in a midnight-blue robe with crisp white piping. Leonardo DiCaprio traded his environmental crusade for a burgundy pajama set topped with a black blazer, proving even eco-warriors need dress codes. That third line: remember, DiCaprio’s wardrobe choices can’t save the planet, but they sure look good trying.
Kim Kardashian ditched couture gowns for a lingerie-inspired corseted number paired with sheer stockings and garters—because star power never sleeps. Oprah Winfrey and Gayle King twinned in a silky bronze set and a vibrant patterned robe, respectively, while Tom Brady opted for a classic pajama silhouette that screamed “retired quarterback enjoying bedtime.” The roast here: nothing like billionaire-hosted sleepovers to remind us that we peaked at college pizza parties.
Every attendee scored a keepsake gift: Vibi Venezia blue velvet slippers for the men and black open-toe slippers for the women, plus a curated goody bag waiting in their hotel suites. E! News confirms that even without phones, the buzz was electric—mostly from the complimentary cocktails. Third-level jab: who needs digital detox when your gift bag’s full of mini champagne bottles?
The lavish wedding ceremony the night before was equally over-the-top, with Bezos in a sharp black suit and Sánchez in a cream-colored designer gown. Vogue reported that Lauren’s children—Nikko, Evan, and maid of honor Ella—played starring roles, walking her down the aisle and delivering heartfelt readings. That detail’s roast: nothing says “modern family” like having three teens upstaging your vows by not tripping onstage.
So there you have it: foam, silk, slippers, and a billionaire love story wrapped up in irony and opulence. Tune in next time for more private islands, themed black-tie galas, or at least a reality check over a cup of coffee.
