The moor millionaires the merrier!
A fleet of multi-million dollar superyachts descended upon Venice ahead of Jeff Bezos’ impending Italian wedding to Lauren Sánchez.
Luxurious vessels were moored along the coast as A-listers and billionaires flooded the floating city for the Amazon founder’s multi-day wedding festivities.
Michael Jordan’s $115 million megayacht, M’ Brace, was spotted sailing along the shores of Venice earlier this week.
The former basketball player, who has a reported net worth of $3.5 billion, purchased the 244-foot ship in 2018. The yacht features an observation deck, outdoor bar, outdoor shower and swimming platform, according to Sports Illustrated.
Pakistani-American businessman Shahid Khan — who has a reported net worth of 13.1 billion and owns the NFL’s Jacksonville Jaguars — anchored his $360 million yacht dubbed Kismet close by.
The 400-foot superyacht features interiors by Reymond Langton Design and a 7-star wellness suite including a hammam, sauna, cryotherpay chamber, massage studio, and fitness center, as well as a movie theater and underwater dining room, according to its website.
Hedge fund honcho Bill Miller’s nearly 200-foot superyacht, Ariance, was also spotted floating in the Venetian waters.
Miller, who has an estimated net worth of $500 million, was not seen aboard the $650 million boat which boasts five decks accessible via a glass elevator, a penthouse-like suite and a private jacuzzi.
Last week, resident of Alibaba Group J. Michael Evans parked his pretty ship, White Rose of Drachs, which is reportedly worth $80 million.
The former Goldman Sach exec’s yacht, built in 2004, spans more than 200 feet and has interiors and exteriors designed by Donald Starkey and enough capacity for an 18-person crew.
Ivanka Trump and Diane von Furstenberg were seen arriving on land via water taxis — though it’s unclear if they were staying on one of the many impressive yachts at sea.

Bezos’ $500 million megayacht named Koru hasn’t been seen in Venice yet.
However, the tech tycoon, 61, and Sánchez, 55, have been spotted sailing on the opulent floater in the weeks leading up to their big day.
On Sunday, the couple celebrated Sánchez’s son Evan’s 19th birthday with a foam party aboard the yacht in Croatia.
Bezos proposed to the “Fly Who Flew To Space” author while cruising on his stunning ship in 2023 after five years of dating.
He presented her with an enormous 20-carat diamond engagement ring valued to be worth an estimated $2.5 million.
Bezos and Sánchez are poised to say “I do” this week with expected A-list guests including Oprah Winfrey, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kim Kardashian, Bill Gates and Barbara Streisand.
