When Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie got married last month, it seemed like no one knew about it beforehand other than the couple dozen guests who attended.

Brad’s equally secretive friend George Clooney got engaged to Amal Alamuddin back in April and was expected to plan a surprise, low-key ceremony of his own.

That is, until last night, when he announced the location and approximate date of his wedding to a room full of reporters and celebs.

George and Amal made their red carpet debut as a couple at the Celebrity Fight Night charity event held in Venice last night.

When Clooney took the stage, he shocked the crowd by casually revealing when and where he’ll be relinquishing his title as World’s Most Eligible Bachelor:

“I met my lovely bride-to-be here in Italy, whom I will be marrying in a couple weeks, in Venice of all places,” George told the audience.  

Naturally, George didn’t get any more specific with regard to the date or venue, but at least now we can properly prepare ourselves for the end of the Single Clooney Era.

So much for those rumors that George and Amal are fighting over a prenup. Clearly, if these two are fighting about anything, it’s who dropped more jaws on the red carpet.
