Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's leaked wedding invite with bizarre request raises eyebrows

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's leaked wedding invite asks guests not to give gifts. The couple are due to tie the knot this week in a Venice ceremony.

However, the reported invite has now been leaked with one special request included. A copy of part of an invitation as been revealed, which is thought to have been sent to around 200 guests.

The billionaire couple have asked their special guests to not bring any gifts to their nuptials. The invite simple says: "We're excited for you to join us! We have one early request: please, no gifts."

The invitation, which was obtained by ABC News, has been slammed by fans as some have pointed out the cartoon images included. It features what looks like to be computer generated designs of butterflies, doves, the Venice canals, gondolas and feathers.

It also reads: "Instead, we're making contributions in your honor and with gratitude to you for making the journey to celebrate with us in Venice.

"Donations on your behalf are being made to the UNESCO Venice Office to safeguard the city’s irreplaceable cultural heritage, to CORILA to restore the lagoon habitats that protect Venice’s future, and to Venice International University to support research and education for sustainable solutions."

It ends with: "This magical place has gifted us unforgettable memories. Our hope is that through these efforts and by you joining us, Venice will continue to inspire wonder for generations to come."

Fans have since commented on the cartoon covered invite. One said: "Wow! Did they just send an evite for their multi million dollar wedding?"

As another added: "Wow what an ugly announcement/invitation. With all the money he has they could have at least done something pretty and classy," with a third saying: "Was the invitation made in microsoft paint?"

Those in Venice aren't pleased that the billionaire and his partner are having their wedding there. The No Space for Bezos campaign group said the pair have scrambled to change their plans after activists threatened to block the canals with inflatable crocodiles to stop their guests from attending.

However, the couple have now put a new plan in place as they have moved the special day to Arsenale which is a shipyard complex which will be pretty much impossible for protestors to get to.

Campaigners Everyone Hates Elon (EHE) and Greenpeace protesters laid out a huge 20x20m banner near to where the Amazon founder was due to marry his partner.

Set out in the city's famous St Mark's Square, the message reads: "IF YOU CAN RENT VENICE FOR YOUR WEDDING YOU CAN PAY MORE TAX." The groups are critical of Jeff, who is the second-richest man in the world, as he is reported to pay a 1.1% true tax rate.
