Jeff Bezos & Lauren Sánchez's Guests Have No Idea What To Expect

According to a source, the details of Bezos and Sánchez's wedding are shrouded in mystery, and their guests have no idea what to expect. They claimed that attendees were not informed of the locations for the three-day celebration and were only given the arrival time of their water taxis.
The insider explained that Bezos and Sánchez expected guests to show up and be driven to the location for their wedding ceremony. So far, several A-listers have been spotted in Venice after booking rooms at some of the five luxury hotels in the city.
The Aman hotel, per Page Six, reportedly built a special pier to accommodate its celebrity clientele, including the Amazon billionaire and Sánchez.
Other famous hotels like St. Regis, where billionaire philanthropist Bill Gates is rumored to be staying, have also made necessary adjustments for their celebrity guests.

Although wedding guests may not know the locations for Bezos and Sánchez's festivities, the source noted that they won't be underdressed for the events. They claimed that attendees were given mood boards to guide their wardrobe choices, along with examples for inspiration.
The move ensured that Bezos and Sánchez could give guests a general idea of what to wear without spilling the tea about their celebration plans. However, the couple isn't the first to pull this move as billionaires Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant did the same thing during their six-day wedding in 2024.
Bezos and Sánchez's rumored locations for their three-day festivities include the Island of San Giorgio Maggiore, Madonna dell'Orto church, and the Arsenale. Most guests reportedly arrived in Venice on Wednesday to kick off the celebrations at a villa on the small island of San Giovanni Evangelista.
