Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez are getting married in Venice this week. They won't be getting KitchenAids and silverware.

Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos and his bride-to-be Lauren Sánchez have arrived in Venice for their three-day wedding extravaganza. The couple had to change venues for their nuptials, a move that protesters in Venice have called an "enormous victory.

On Wednesday, other activists launched a float down the Grand Canal featuring a mannequin of Bezos clinging onto an Amazon box, his fists full of fake dollars. The British publicity firm that announced the stunt said it wasn’t a protest of the wedding “but against unchecked wealth, media control, and the growing privatisation of public spaces.”
