However, they've already had to move locations due to safety concerns amid protests - originally, they had planned a huge party planned at the Scuola Grande della Misericordia on Saturday night but it has now been moved to another venue in the Arsenale area of the city, according to local media. Locals have been protesting the event for days, and around 20 activists were seen hours before the pre-wedding party in St Mark's Square, the iconic heart of Venice.
