Venus Williams Marries Andrea Preti; Power Couple Follow Second Wedding With Five-Day Celebration in Florida
The couple is expected to split their time between Williams’ primary residence in Florida and Preti’s home in Italy. No official statement has been released regarding immediate honeymoon plans, as both are expected to return to their respective professional commitments in early 2026.
Tennis champion Venus Williams and Italian actor Andrea Preti have concluded a five-day wedding celebration in Florida, marking the couple's second marriage ceremony. The multi-day event, held at a private estate, brought together family and high-profile friends to celebrate the couple’s union following a smaller, legal ceremony held earlier in 2025.

A Multi-Day Celebration in Florida
The festivities spanned five days, featuring a series of curated events including a welcome dinner, a formal ceremony, and a farewell brunch. Guests reportedly included several figures from the sports and entertainment industries, though the couple maintained a degree of privacy by limiting social media coverage during the event.
The Florida celebration served as a more public acknowledgement of their relationship compared to their initial vows. Sources close to the couple noted that the extended schedule was designed to allow international guests, particularly those traveling from Preti’s native Italy, time to congregate and celebrate.
Williams, a seven-time Grand Slam singles champion, and Preti, known for his work in Italian cinema and television, have remained relatively low-key regarding their private lives. The pair was first linked publicly in 2024 and have since made occasional appearances together at global sporting and fashion events.
The couple’s first wedding was a quiet, legal ceremony held months prior. This second, more elaborate iteration in Florida focused on traditional customs and larger-scale hospitality.
Career and Future Outlook
While Williams has scaled back her competitive tennis schedule in recent years, she remains an active figure in the business world through her interior design firm, V Starr, and her apparel brand, EleVen.
