Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and fiancée Lauren Sánchez‘s “wedding of the century” is set to take place in Venice, Italy in a matter of days.
While details of the ceremony have been kept under wraps, it’s expected to be a spectacular affair with an abundance of familiar faces in attendance.
So who exactly should we expect to see on the day?

While the guest list has been kept a secret, there are a few safe bets we’ll probably see at the billionaire couple’s nuptials.
Sánchez was one of the women who travelled to space on Blue Origin’s most recent all-female mission, so it’s no wonder that Katy Perry – one of Sánchez’s fellow travellers –and her husband Orlando Bloom are said to have scored an invite.
Amid the rife speculation of troubles between the couple, it’s said that Bloom will be attending the event solo, which will only add fuel to the rumour currently circulating online.
However, it’s most likely that Perry won’t be in attendance due to the fact she is currently in Australia for her Lifetimes tour.
Bezos’ fiancé is also close friend with stars such as Eva Longoria, Kris Jenner, Kylie Jenner and Kim Kardashian, all of whom could very well make an appearance at the event.
People report that a source has confirmed Ivanka Trump’s attendance, however it’s unclear if President Donald Trump will be joining his daughter or if he has more important business to attend to.
According to TMZ, Oprah Winfrey, Gayle King and Karlie Kloss will also be travelling to Italy to celebrate the couple.
The Rolling Stones rocker Mick Jagger is also rumoured to be attending.

The Financial Review reports that “dozens” of private jets are expected to fly into Venice travelling from places including “Los Angeles, Tanzania, London and Budapest”.
Bill Gates will allegedly be flying in from Brussels for the occasion, while Rupert Murdoch’s son, Lachlan Murdoch, is expected to be travelling in from London.
Other A-list names reportedly on the guest list include Lady Gaga and Elton John.
Bezos and Sánchez had a star-studded engagement party in August 2023, so the same guests might get an invite to the main event.
The celebrities who attended that bash included actors Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield.
Hugh Jackman’s former partner Deborra-lee Furness and actress Jessica Alba were also in attendance.
Unfortunately, the couple have remained very tight lipped on the nuptials so we’ll have to wait and see who actually rocks up to the wedding of the century.

City officials confirmed the three-day celebrations would take place between June 24 and 26, according to a CNN report.
Several luxury accommodation venues throughout the city appear to be preparing for the big weekend with five of the city’s luxury hotels almost completely booked out.
After the location of Bezos and Sánchez’ wedding was revealed, concerns were raised about the impact the influx of VIP guests would have on the slowly sinking city and possible disruptions for citizens and tourists.
But city officials aren’t concerned.
“We are mutually working and supporting the organizers, to ensure that the event will be absolutely respectful of the fragility and uniqueness of the city,” Venice Mayor Luigi Brugnaro said in a statement, per Page Six.
Brugnaro added that it “is their utmost priority to make sure the city functions as normal, for all, with no abnormal disruption to anyone.”
“Venice is used to being the stage for events and shows every week, without significant impacts,” Brugnaro later shared.
There have, however, been protests in the city, aimed at Bezos and the wedding.
Signs reading “No Space For Bezos” and “Veniceland: A playground fit for an oligarch” have recently been displayed in the popular tourist destination.
The couple’s wedding planners, Lanza & Baucina Limited, later weighed in to defend them.
“From the outset, instructions from our client and our own guiding principles were abundantly clear: the minimising of any disruption to the city, the respect for its residents and institutions and the overwhelming employment of locals in the crafting of the events,” they said in a statement provided to Page Six.
