With Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos in Venice, celebrations for their highly anticipated wedding are underway. The three-day affair, from Thursday to Saturday, will see around 200 guests join the couple, with an estimated cost of €40-48 million ($46.5-55.6 million). Venice expects to profit €20-30 million ($23.4-35.1 million) from the event. While the legal wedding date remains unclear, the Venice mayor's office confirms no official request for a legal ceremony has been received. Sanchez has already showcased stunning outfits, including a vintage Alexander McQueen gown and a Schiaparelli couture dress. A-list celebrities like Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner, Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Orlando Bloom, Oprah Winfrey, Tom Brady, Bill Gates, Kendall Jenner, and Kylie Jenner have been spotted arriving in Venice. The first evening's events are expected to take place at the medieval Madonna dell’Orto cloister, though venues may shift due to planned protests by the group No Space for Bezos. The wedding planners, who also worked on the Clooneys' Venetian wedding, aim to minimize disruption and use local suppliers. Around 80% of wedding provisions are sourced locally. While Dolce & Gabbana is speculated to be the designer of Sanchez's wedding gown, Oscar de la Renta is another possibility.
