After a two-year-long engagement, Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez will tie the knot in Italy.
A source has revealed the couple will say 'I do' on Friday, June 27 on the island of San Giorgio, which is home to the famous Basilica of San Giorgio Maggiore, a 16th century Benedictine church.
Jeff's $500million superyacht, Koru, will be docked in the harbor and the island will not be open to the public.
The ceremony is part of three events, all at different locations, which will take place to celebrate the newly weds.
It is believed that on June 26, there could be a gala at a private cloister along the iconic Lid potentially at Chiostro della Madonna dell'Orto.
And on June 28, there will be a lavish party at a palazzo or church, our source added.
The insider confirmed that guests are expected to arrive in the country over the next few days and leave by June 29.
The guest list is thought to have less than 200 people, with A-listers like Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom and even members of the Trump family expected to come.
In addition to the private tenders, around 60 of Venice's water taxis are reserved for the week, with some of the 400 gondolas on the island out of commission as well.
The source claimed that a celebrity wedding planner, who is not working this event, has heard that guests will receive 'opulent' gifts just for attending the nuptials.

And it looks like all of this opulence is thanks to Lauren herself, as her hubby-to-be revealed in a 2023 Vogue interview that he wouldn't dare get involved with wedding planning.
'Oh, God, no. Do I look that dumb?' Jeff told the outlet when he was asked if he had a big part in the preparations.
In the interview, Lauren mentioned Christian Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, and Valentino as some of her favorite designers, but didn't share anything about which one will make her gown.
After exchanging their vows, Jeff and Lauren's families will officially become blended.
The Amazon founder welcomed four children with his ex-wife MacKenzie Scott, whom he married in 1993. They were together for 25 years before parting ways after his romance with Lauren was exposed, and they finalized their divorce in 2019.
There is little known about Jeff and MacKenzie's four kids - three biological sons and a daughter they adopted from China.
Meanwhile, Lauren welcomed a son, named Nikko Gonzalez, with footballer Tony Gonzalez in 2002 before splitting. She then walked down the aisle with Hollywood agent Patrick Whitesell in 2005, and together, they had a son, named Evan Whitesell, in 2006 and a daughter, named Eleanor Whitesell, in 2008.
They were together for more than a decade up until her affair with Jeff was brought to light in early 2019.
The 2023 proposal took place aboard Jeff's $500 million superyacht and was sealed with an impressive sparkler.
Estimated by some to be between 15 and 20 carats, Lauren's diamond ring has been valued at between $3 and $5million dollars.
Since going public in 2019, the couple have showed off their love around the world, holidaying aboard Jeff's megayacht.
