Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's wedding plans

Recently, in an interview with Vogue magazine, the couple opened up about their wedding plans.

“We’re still thinking about the wedding,” Sánchez said, “what it’s going to be. Is it going to be big? Is it going to be overseas? We don’t know yet. We’ve only been engaged five months!” 

Sharing her story of the proposal with Vogue, Sánchez said that Jeff had proposed to her at the beginning of their summer at the sea. He hid the ring under her pillow after a starlit dinner à deux. 

She later found it at bedtime.

“When he opened the box, I think I blacked out a bit," she told the magazine.

Sharing pictures from the Vogue photoshoot on her official Instagram handle, she thanked Bezos for his "constant support and encouragement".
