Bezos-Sánchez wedding leaks abound: their invitations were criticised, while a photographed guest list revealed Buster Knight, Laura Mele and Sophie Rose Gutterman among the bride’s glam squad
Amazon boss Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez have officially touched down in Venice for what stands to be one of the biggest weddings of the year – and much has been said about the couple’s leaked wedding invitations, which some have criticised for falling flat against the backdrop of the couple’s whopping US$20 million budget.
Before the start of the couple’s extravagant wedding, Beatrice Bavato, a tour guide responsible for receiving the couple’s guests, was photographed holding a clipboard filled with names of guests arriving for the celebrations over the next few days, along with their flight numbers and hotel destinations.

President Donald Trump reportedly scored an invitation to this wedding of the decade, although it’s unclear whether he and his wife Melania will attend. However, his daughter Ivanka Trump and her hubby Jared Kushner have already arrived in Venice for the celebrations. Jared’s brother Joshua Kushner and his model wife Karlie Kloss were also invited.

Others on the guest list, per TMZ, include Leonardo DiCaprio, Oprah Winfrey, Gayle King, Bill Gates, singer Jewel, Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Corey Gamble, Barbra Streisand, Eva Longoria, Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom, Brian Grazer, Barry Diller, Diane von Furstenberg, models Brooks Nader and Camila Morrone, and Queen Rania of Jordan. Perry won’t attend though, because she’s on tour.
Beyond these A-list names, the most notable on the clipboard were members of Sánchez’s styling team, including Buster Knight, as well as Laura Mele and Sophie Rose Gutterman, who both designed the look she wore ahead of her recent space trip.

Unexpected additions to her team appear to be Mindy L’Amour, a fashion stylist who specialises in corsets; and Samuel Horowitz, a sales executive at Dolce & Gabbana. This suggests Sánchez might wear a Dolce & Gabbana corset gown to her nuptials.
