The Amazon founder and children’s book author tapped event planners Lanza & Baucina Limited — who are known for producing Venice weddings for A-list couples, including George and Amal Clooney in 2014 and Salma Hayek and François-Henri Pinault in 2009 — to help stage this week’s events.
Several celebrities have been seen in Venice this week for the wedding, including: Bill Gates, Paula Hurd, Oprah Winfrey, Gayle King, Usher, Jenn Goicoechea, Sydney Sweeney, Leonardo DiCaprio, Vittoria Ceretti, Orlando Bloom, Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner, Diane von Fürstenberg, Karlie Kloss, Tom Brady, Ellie Goulding, Queen Rania of Jordan, Jewel Kilcher, John Elkann, Lavinia Borromeo and Francois-Henri Pinault.
Also spotted were Kris Jenner and her boyfriend, Corey Gamble, along with her daughters Khloé Kardashian, Kim Kardashian, Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner. Kylie also brought her two young children, daughter Stormi and son Aire, to Venice.
An inside source told PEOPLE that Sánchez’s ex-boyfriend Tony Gonzalez will also be present during this week’s festivities in Venice, alongside their son, Nikko. Sánchez additionally shares children Evan and Ella with ex Patrick Whitesell. Bezos has four children with ex-wife MacKenzie Scott.
Although the Bezos and Sánchez — who have been in a relationship since January 2019 — have worked hard to keep the details surrounding their extravagant nuptials under wraps, another source previously confirmed to PEOPLE that Matteo Bocelli, son of Andrea Bocelli, performed at the star-studded ceremony.
Before their wedding, the bride and groom’s closest loved ones predicted that their multi-day celebration would be anything but a regular wedding. “I think it’s gonna be like a Princess Di thing,” Sánchez’s older brother, Paul, told TMZ in March. “It’s gonna be an amazing event. It’s gonna be star-studded and fun.”
