AMAZON founder Jeff Bezos and his fiancée Lauren Sanchez are said to have invited an A-list crew of 200 high-profile guests to their wedding.
From Trump family members to reality TV stars, here is an inside look at the glamorous guest list of the so-called wedding of the century.
This week in Venice, Italy, the 61-year-old founder of Amazon is set to wed his partner, a former TV reporter with whom he’s been in a relationship for six years, although specific details about the ceremony are still under wraps.
While the guest list is being kept a tight secret, it’s anticipated that the event will be packed with immensely wealthy and highly influential celebrities.
Considering that Bezos and Sanchez attended the White House for President Donald Trump’s inauguration, it’s not unexpected that a member of the Trump family might appear at these festivities.
Despite Bezos owning The Washington Post, which is known for primarily endorsing Democratic presidential candidates, he’s cozied up to Trump in recent months and has become a supporter.
For their wedding, the president and his wife Melania aren’t expected to show for the celebrations, but it’s believed that daughter Ivanka and her investor husband Jared Kushner will show, The New York Times reported.
Outside of politics, Hollywood elites and industry-defining business leaders are expected to be peppered throughout the celebrations.
Some major players expected to show include broadcasting businessman Barry Diller and his fashion designer wife Diane von Fürstenberg.
Attendees may also brush shoulders with fellow tech magnate Bill Gates, who attended one of the couple’s engagement parties.
But high-powered entrepreneurs aren’t the only people believed to be on the list. Glitzy TV stars like the Kardashians are expected to make a bombshell showing at the A-list event.
Kim Kardashian should be showing up to celebrate their love, and her mom Kris is also said to have gotten an invite.
Kim and actress Eva Longoria were two familiar faces who joined Sanchez in Paris for a ritzy bachelorette party weekend.
Other beloved TV stars on the list include talk show sensation Oprah Winfrey and her best friend, news anchor Gayle King.
King was a notable member of the all-female flight crew that blasted off into space with Bezos’ aviation company Blue Origin.
Models Karlie Kloss and Brooks Nader are also believed to be in attendance, according to TMZ.
And Hollywood bigwig Michael Kives, who is a billionaire investor and former talent agent, is said to be coming along with mega film producer Brian Grazer.
Although Katy Perry secured the invite, she won’t be able to attend as she’s tied up with a sold-out tour in Australia.
Instead, her husband Orlando Bloom will be representing the family.
Outside of the recognizable faces, dozens of family members are expected to attend. Sanchez and Bezos have seven kids from previous relationships, so they’ve got big families in attendance.
LUX WEDDING
Bezos is said to have booked lavish $11,600 a night hotel suites and reserved seven yachts to accommodate his mega-famous guests.
One source who previously spoke with The U.S. Sun said the couple was planning on getting hitched at an iconic open-air theater on an island.
Some locals living in Venice fear that the events could bring an unwanted influx of people and shutter off key parts of the city, but the couple have vowed to limit any disruptions.
Prestigious event planning company Lanza & Baucina, which is organizing the wedding, said that the couple has supported “the city and its all-important lagoon through non-profit organizations and associated projects.”
