Even billionaires love the classics. This was sweetly proven when Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez exchanged vows in a lavish yet incredibly romantic, star-studded wedding celebration on the island of San Giorgio in Venice, Italy, on Friday, June 27.

The Elvis Presley Song Played at Jeff Bezos’ Wedding Ceremony Will Melt Your Heart

To underscore that deeply emotional moment, the powerful couple chose one of legendary Elvis Presley’s most iconic and heartwarming ballads.

 

Which Elvis Classic Did They Choose?

 

It wasn’t a modern hit or a trending tune, but rather “Can’t Help Falling in Love” – a melody that has transcended time, touching millions of hearts across generations. To ensure perfection for this moment, Italian singer Matteo Bocelli, son of the legendary tenor Andrea Bocelli, performed a moving rendition of the timeless classic during the ceremony.

The choice of “Can’t Help Falling in Love” not only reflects Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s refined musical taste but also conveys a profound message about love. The song’s simple yet deeply meaningful lyrics – “Wise men say only fools rush in, but I can’t help falling in love with you” – perfectly encapsulate the feeling of surrendering to true love, an irresistible emotion that defies calculation.

In the ancient and romantic setting of Venice, witnessed by friends and family, Elvis’s poignant melody, delivered through Matteo Bocelli’s soulful voice, truly melted the hearts present. It’s a testament that no matter how high one climbs in life, love remains the strongest bond, and classic melodies always possess an eternal power to celebrate life’s most beautiful moments.
