Celebrities At Jeff Bezos Wedding
The Jeff Bezos wedding features stars from Hollywood, fashion, politics, and business. Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom, Barbra Streisand, Karlie Kloss, and Gayle King were seen among the arriving guests. Diane von Furstenberg and her husband, Barry Diller, were also spotted boarding a water taxi.
Lauren Sanchez, a former journalist, has strong ties in both business and entertainment circles. That’s reflected in the powerful and glamorous list of attendees. The wedding also includes Canadian investor Michael Kives and his wife, Lydia. The event highlights the couple’s influence and ability to bring together major names from multiple industries.
Locals Criticise Wedding Disruption
While Jeff Bezos’ wedding brings global attention to Venice, many residents have voiced concern. The activists have said that the celebrations disrupted daily life and contributed to overtourism. The locals have reported heavy boat traffic, blocked streets, and media activity, which have affected normal routines.
Despite the backlash, the wedding celebrations continue this week. Some Venetians see the event as another example of the city being used for lavish displays. Others, however, welcomed the attention Venice received. The event remains one of the most talked-about weddings of the year.
