Jeff Bezos, Lauren Sanchez to marry in Venice tens of celebrity guests

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez are set to marry in a lavish wedding in Venice, Italy, from June 26-29, featuring a star-studded guest list that includes Oprah Winfrey, Kim Kardashian, Ivanka Trump, and many other high-profile personalities. The couple, engaged for nearly two years, has made extensive plans, booking luxury hotels like The Gritti Palace and Aman Venice for their guests, and preparing for extravagant festivities including a potential fireworks display. Sánchez, who has reportedly chosen a dress by Oscar de la Renta, will also embark on a space trip with an all-female crew as a unique wedding gift from Bezos. Despite speculation about the wedding's cost, Bezos has denied claims that it will exceed $600 million. The couple's engagement was marked by a $2.5 million diamond ring, which Sánchez described as so large it left her momentarily stunned. As preparations continue, Venice is mobilizing resources to accommodate the influx of distinguished attendees.
