While a destination wedding can be a headache for many, when the bride and groom are Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez, a trip around the world to watch a couple make some vows is apparently as easy as a run to Erewhon. So, who traveled to Venice for the “minimal impact” nuptial celebration between the Trump-boosting founder of online marketplace Amazon and the space-traveling former journalist? A diverse crowd, as it turns out, including reality TV stars from the Kardashian and Jenner clan, retired athletes including Tom Brady, and actors such as Sydney Sweeney and Leonardo DiCaprio.
The names of some guests are no surprise to wedding watchers, especially after photographers caught sight of an info-packed attendee list earlier this week. About 200 people were expected to attend, that document revealed, including tech investor Robert Gelfond and wife Sandra Leong. As the week continued, other names trickled out. Orlando Bloom was spotted on a speedboat in the area…was he headed to the wedding fresh from his reported parting with (former Sánchez space buddy) Katy Perry? Photos of the Lord of the Rings elf in a tux confirmed that detail.
Another of Sánchez’s fellow space travelers also made an appearance: Gayle King was there, on the arm of longtime pal Oprah Winfrey. Tom Brady seemed relatively undeflated at the event, though he was in all black in high, humid weather reminiscent of the other, non Jeff Bezos Amazon. And Usher, with whom he shared a boat, certainly elicited an OMG or two. Love a man in cuff links.
The Family Trips With The Meyers Brothers podcast should probably get the Kardashian and Jenner crew on the horn, as they appeared to travel en masse to the shindig. But like any heads of state, they opted for separate conveyances for purposes, one can assume, of succession and safety. Corey Gamble and Kris Jenner traveled in one vessel, Kim Kardashian and sister Khloé Kardashian in another. Kylie Jenner, who wore black, shared a third with her (scandalously to some) white-clad sister, Kendall Jenner.
Though you can’t tell it from Leonardo DiCaprio’s Dodgers-capped visage (perhaps it was too hot for his usual mask), chunky blonde highlights also ruled the wedding day. On the lightest side of the spectrum was presidential daughter Ivanka Trump, arm in arm with husband Jared Kushner. Singer Ellie Goulding, who shared a boat with model Brooks Nader and sister Sarah Jane Nader, also sported the kind of do that advertisements for Sun-In falsely promised a generation. And Sydney Sweeney‘s sun-kissed ends felt beachy and fresh amid the more buttoned-up looks.
The majority of the guests followed a pink, black, and white color story, but there were a few exceptions. Jewel Kilcher, who we last saw celebrating Donald Trump‘s election then apologizing for it, wore a perhaps-appropriate red. And Queen Rania al Abdullah of Jordan was there in a pale teal-meets-seafoam gown that packed both stripes and flowers into the mix.
Expect more casual looks from that cast of characters later today, as the party continues. Bezos and Sanchez have already donned chiller attire for a Saturday lunch. Then it’s time for a rumored blow-out party tonight at—reports the BBC—”a former medieval shipyard,” where Elton John and Lady Gaga are reportedly set to perform.
