Prior to the Friday night event, an exclusive source told PEOPLE she kicked off her celebrations at Lafayette’s in Paris on Thursday, May 15.
“The atmosphere was very relaxed and very Parisian,” a source exclusively told PEOPLE of the event. “It was a pre-wedding all-girl party for 13,” the source said of the star-studded guest list.
At the restaurant, the women drank “espresso martinis and everybody got up and danced when Lauren asked for Earth, Wind and Fire,” the insider said. Their meal concluded with a surprise vanilla meringue cake for Sánchez.
The children’s book author posted photos on Instagram alongside her friends, in celebration mode. “Forever starts with friendship, surrounded by the women who’ve lifted me up, illuminated my path in dark times, and shaped my heart along the way. 🤍,” she captioned the Thursday, May 17 Instagram post.

PEOPLE confirmed in March that Bezos and Sánchez sent out their wedding invitations, with plans to marry in Italy off the coast of Venice on their $500 million yacht named Koru in June. The highly anticipated nuptials are expected to have a star-studded guest list.
The couple went public with their relationship in 2019 and got engaged in May 2023. PEOPLE confirmed that they were vacationing in the South of France when the billionaire popped the question. Later, Sánchez was photographed rocking her engagement ring as she spent time with her fiancé on the yacht.
A source told PEOPLE that Bezos and Sánchez were “on cloud nine — so happy and madly in love” after their engagement.
Sánchez’s current bachelorette festivities and upcoming nuptials follow a busy few months. In April, she led a star-studded all-female expedition that included Perry and Gayle King into space.
In September 2024, she authored her first children’s book — The Fly Who Flew to Space — about a fly who is “bad at school and kind of wanders and gets stuck in a space capsule.” Shortly before the book hit shelves, she told PEOPLE how “humbled” she was to release it.
“I’m so thrilled my kids get to see me do this because they encouraged me to write this for years and I finally made it happen,” the mom of three said.
