Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and his fiancée, Lauren Sanchez, are set to seal their love in a luxurious wedding ceremony in Venice, Italy. The couple’s three-day wedding extravaganza is expected to be a grand affair, with around 200 guests attending, including A-list celebrities like Orlando Bloom, Kim Kardashian, Oprah Winfrey, and Leonardo DiCaprio. The festivities began with a welcome party hosted by the couple in a closed cloister adjacent to the Madonna dell’Orto church, where the couple is expected to tie the knot on June 27.
The wedding celebrations have drawn attention not only for their opulence but also for the protests surrounding them. Locals have expressed concerns over overtourism in Venice, and activists have been vocal about their disapproval of the lavish wedding. Despite the controversy, the couple seems to be enjoying their special day, with Sanchez sharing moments from the celebration on Instagram and expressing gratitude to the women who have supported her.
The couple’s wedding plans have been making headlines for weeks, with reports suggesting that Bezos’s superyacht, Koru, might play a role in the nuptials. However, it’s worth noting that a report claimed the couple might have already tied the knot in a private ceremony in the US, under American law, which would mean the Venice celebration is more of a party.
Regardless of the exact nature of the ceremony, it’s clear that Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez are celebrating their love in style, surrounded by friends, family, and the beauty of Venice.
