Venice, Italy is abuzz with activity as Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez prepare for their lavish wedding this Saturday. The couple has reportedly booked the entire Aman Venice hotel, displacing guests who had pre-existing reservations.
Sources say these guests were relocated to nearby luxury hotels, including the St. Regis, with Aman covering the costs and offering upgrades.
While some guests expressed frustration at the inconvenience, spa staff at the Aman are reportedly bracing for the demands of the A-list attendees.
Security is tight throughout the city, with increased police presence both on the canals and at hotels like the St. Regis, where some VIP guests are believed to be staying. The wedding venue has reportedly been moved to a more secluded location to avoid potential protests organized by activist groups.
The star-studded guest list is rumored to include Oprah Winfrey, Gayle King, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, Barbra Streisand, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kim and Khloe Kardashian, and Orlando Bloom.
