During the June wedding, the couple will reportedly have two Grammy-winning stars perform for them and their guests.

The Daily Mail reported that for Lady Gaga and Elton John's performances, the soon-to-be newlyweds have paid a premium price in Venice for the exclusive nuptials.

A source informed the outlet, "Lauren wanted some big talent to sing for them, and it just doesn't get any bigger than Gaga and Elton. It also helps that Gaga and Elton are good friends and were happy to do it together, which is cool. It will be like a mini vacation for the besties."

The insider also gave a hint about what the performances will be, and added that both stars will sing "several well-known tunes" from their extensive playlist. Moreover, the source added that they might perform a duet together to further entertain the couple and their guests.

However, representatives for Lady Gaga and Elton John have denied that the stars are scheduled to perform at the wedding.

A different source told The US Sun that Sanchez and Bezos have booked the Grand Canal Suite at the five-star Aman Venice.

The suite reportedly costs $11,600 per night and is the largest available among all the accommodations at the hotel, per the outlet.

"It is the biggest they have, and it's the talk of the hotel. The room is spectacular and even has access to a rooftop terrace overlooking the city," the insider said.

The source added that some other guests will be staying elsewhere in the hotel, with the Kardashians reportedly being one of those who have booked a suite.
