What’s the most glamorous way to arrive at a billionaire’s wedding? Private jet? Vintage car? Helicopter?
The right answer is obviously on a superyacht.
A handful of luxury yachts made their way to Venice ahead of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s wedding. While it’s unclear if the yachts are there specifically for the multiday event, some of the owners have ties to the couple, making it possible they were invited.
Take a look at the yachts that are moored in Venice amid Bezos and Sánchez’s wedding.

Bezos and Sánchez are celebrating their wedding with around 200 guests, inviting celebrities, billionaires, and even royals to their nuptials.
Many of their A-list guests have arrived in Venice via private jet, including Kim Kardashian, Bill Gates, and Oprah Winfrey.
Still, several luxury yachts arrived in Venice this week as well, potentially bringing some of the guests to the wedding via the sea, which would be fitting for a friend of Bezos.
Bezos and Sánchez are often spotted on his $500 million yacht Koru. Most recently, they were photographed hosting a foam party on the yacht on Sunday off the coast of Croatia.

The superyacht Were Dreams arrived in Venice on Tuesday, according to MarineTraffic.
The Were Dreams is 52 meters long and can house 11 guests.
It was once owned by Andrey Kostin, the CEO of Russia’s VTB bank. It’s unclear who now owns the vessel, and unlike some luxury yachts, it isn’t available to charter.

The 53-meter Limerence’s owner hasn’t been made public, and the yacht can be chartered, so it isn’t clear who used it to travel to Venice during the week of Bezos and Sánchez’s wedding.
According to Yacht Charter Fleet, the vessel can host six guests and has luxury amenities like a helicopter pad.

The 60-meter-long Arience moored in Venice on Monday.
Miller’s investment in Amazon helped him become a billionaire, so it’s not surprising that he may have headed to Italy for Bezos’ wedding.
Though Miller owns the Arience, it can also be chartered by others for a fee. As said on its Yacht Charter Fleet listing, the vessel can host 12 guests and has a gym, a waterfall, and a home theater on board.

Khan, who owns the NFL’s Jacksonville Jaguars, has owned the $360 million Kismet since 2024.
Khan made the yacht available for chartering in September 2024, charging $3 million a week for its use. The 122-meter-long vessel can host up to 12 guests and has luxury amenities like a spa, three pools, and Jet Skis.
