Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez are ready to seal their union in Venice, Italy, from June 24 to 26. Although the destination itself is worthy of raising eyebrows, it is the long list of speculated performances and A-list guest list that has set this city abuzz.
Venice, with its eternal beauty and history, is today in the throes of what many have called a ‘new cultural renaissance’. The city’s enduring popularity with celebrities makes it the perfect setting for one of the year’s most eagerly awaited weddings. Wedding producer Danielle Nay told the Daily Mail, “The whole of Venice is buzzing, now that the cat’s out of the bag.” She explained that the choice of location was a ‘smart move’ considering the city’s reputation for receiving high-profile weddings.
Although the couple has not yet confirmed the exact location, a Radar Online insider surmises that the wedding ceremony could be held on the idyllic island of San Giorgio Maggiore. The location boasts a 16th-century church and the exclusive Fondazione Giorgio Cini, providing a serene but regal atmosphere.
Early reports had indicated that Bezos could get married on his private yacht, but that has been ruled out. As Daily Mail explained, a source confirmed, “The wedding will not take place on Jeff’s yacht, that has been ruled out.”
Lady Gaga and Elton John to Perform
Topping the over-the-top bash with yet more star power, Daily Mail announces that pop legends Lady Gaga and Elton John will play at the wedding. “Lauren wanted to have some super talent sing to them, and it just does not get any bigger than Elton and Gaga,” a source confirmed.
The two performers, who share a strong friendship, were reportedly thrilled by the opportunity to sing together in such a picturesque setting. “It also helps that Gaga and Elton are good friends and were happy to do it together, which is cool. It will be like a mini vacation for the besties,” the source added. Guests can expect to hear ‘several well-known tunes’ and possibly a duet between the two icons.
Luxurious Rooms and Guest List
Bezos and Sánchez are said to be residing in the high-end Aman Venice hotel, that is, in its Grand Canal Suite, which rents for about $11,600 a night. According to an insider who spoke with The Sun, “It’s the biggest they have, and it’s the talk of the hotel.” The suite even has a rooftop patio that offers panoramic city views.
Numerous A-list guests, such as members of the Kardashian clan, will likely be housed at the same swanky palazzo. “It’s an amazing palazzo that’s the fanciest hotel in Venice,” said the insider.
From a quintessential Italian backdrop to musical royalty crooning the couple, Bezos and Sánchez’s nuptials are looking to become nothing short of legendary.
