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.”

Activists with Greenpeace, No Space for Bezos, and a UK-based group called Everyone Hates Elon have all been making their displeasure known this week, with a large banner unfurled in St. Mark’s Square reading, “If you can rent Venice for your wedding, you can pay more tax.”

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez are making some last-minute changes ahead of their wedding in Venice, Italy this week, changing their post-ceremony venue over security concerns.
