From Daily Mail: It’s the luxurious, extravagant event that everyone’s been waiting years for – and one that some people still can’t believe is happening – the union of Amazon tycoon Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez.
After a two-year-long engagement, the day is almost upon us, as the power couple are set to finally get married next week in Venice, Italy, in a summer extravaganza.
The guest list is thought to have less than 200 people, with suspected guests including A-listers like Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom and even members of the Trump family.
A source in Italy has provided wedding details exclusively to the Daily Mail, after the coupe rented an entire Italian island for nearly a week ahead of their glitzy wedding. The source revealed the following:
• Island Access Restriction: San Georgio Maggiore island is off-limits to visitors from June 24 to June 29.
• Possible Wedding Venue: The wedding may take place on Bezos’ superyacht, Koru, which is be moored off the coast of San Georgio Maggiore island. Another possibility is the Misericodria, an iconic Venetian event space that is booked from June 26 to June 28.
• Guest Transportation: Private tenders and around 60 water taxis are reserved for transporting guests.
• Guest Accommodation: Approximately 200 guests will be staying at local hotels in Venice.
• Catering Service: Rosa Salva Venetia, a local bakery, will provide pastries for the event.
• Wedding Gifts: Guests are expected to receive opulent gifts.
• Wedding Dress: There are no details yet, but some of Sanchez’ favorite designers are Christian Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, and Valentino.
• Wedding Cost: The wedding is estimated to cost between $15 million and $20 million, calculating in possible transportation fees, wedding dress, and catering.
Meanwhile locals appear to be unhappy with the wedding plans, according to social media posts.

I don’t know Jeff Bezos’s connection to Venice—I hope he has a good story—but hearing about the revolt of locals, blocking canals and disrupting it, is funny.
