What problems is Jeff Bezos’ yacht facing? 

However, with all these luxuries, the functions taking place on yacht will not be witnessing the city’s dreamy and picturesque background as Koru’s massive size does not allow it to be anchored, but only in the Arsenale area, near the monumental areas including those visually appealing due to the city’s rules and regulations. The rules say that vessels of massive size are restricted around historical places such as St. Mark's Square, the Grand Canal, the Giudecca Canal, the Bridge of Sighs, and the Rialto Bridge. 

Its maritime rules have become stricter after UNESCO warned Venice of placing it on the "Endangered" list after a lot of damage has been caused by the big ships. However, the guests will still get to see the serene locations, as a whole fleet of water taxis will be provided to take the guests across the canals. 

The two personalities announced their relationship in 2019 and got engaged in May 2023. They sent out their wedding invitations early this month. 61-year-old Jeff Bezos was married to MacKenzie Scott for 25 years and has four children with her.
