I think he's almost drunk! Hang on George, you've got a long night with all the drinks from the Boys...

He's a seasoned drinker. And he's got his buddies to make sure he gets to where he needs to be later tonight and tomorrow morning. I wonder if G&A will spend the night together or will they do the old tradition of the groom not seeing the bride the night before the wedding? This whole thing is just WOW!

Wow is right!

Thanks Sevens, TheMinis and everybody else who has posted articles and pictures.  Get some sleep as we might have more candid shots tomorrow!

Oops, you guys are already tomorrow!  Any pictures yet?  hahahahaha

It's almost time for my mid-morning coffee here! But I think as it's late at night in Europe, they've all gone to bed already. More photos expected later in the day.

Love this picture! I assume this is of them at the end of the evening going home? Anyone else notice the towels hanging over the top of the window to stop paparazzi getting pictures?

I meant, he wasn't with the other boys last night? Strange .

Thanks to all for these terrific photos of all the guys having such a fun time last night. George seems really relaxed and thoroughly enjoying himself. Or was that the tequila helping him out a bit?!

Translation:

VENICE - He ordered " the usual " : noodles with truffles , zucchini flowers with crab and shrimp with figs . But he wanted to exaggerate . Among the first also wanted a taste of mushroom risotto . Indeed, more than a taste, two plates, because he liked it so much. " Last night he wanted to exaggerate , was delighted - explain by the restaurant that just spread the news has been besieged by photographers - greeted all the staff , went in the kitchen , shook everyone hugs ."

Not only that, when the owner showed the guests the truffle that he used to prepare the dishes , George ran out from the kitchen to smell at all. The almost ex bachelor of Hollywood arrived around 23 Da Ivo . Unexpected say the owners , to the point that they had to move most of the guests who were still there , asking them to vacate the tables. Hard to believe , in fact , judging from the siege of the photographers who started at 21, but changes little . After cocktails at Cipriani, with a small group of very close , among whom were Rande Geber , the husband of Cindy Crawford and Grante Heslov , his friend and producer of " The Men Who Stare at Goats " George has done in a party of his favorite restaurants . There were six in all, seven with the bodyguard . And partied late into the night .

The last photo take from the bridge, thanks Sevens

well you have to have a mishap on your stag night, poor Rande, thats a waste of casamigos

I wish I was in Venice... lucky people who is there and can see all of this. And we in our houses.

No photos of Nick or Nina at either dinner.  Did they attend?

Great set of photos, thanks to everyone who posted.
Love Amal's red dress.....very sexy !

Thanks Joanna.

More good pictures.

NEWS/ George Clooney Wedding Countdown: Details About His Bachelor Party, Plus Photos!

Friday marked George Clooney's last night as a bachelor!
The 53-year-old partied with seven friends, including Rande Gerber, Cindy Crawford's husband, at the Da Ivo restaurant in Venice, Italy, where he is set to wed Amal Alamuddin on Saturday. She celebrated with her friends at a bachelorette party, or hen party.
Her husband-to-be and his friends arrived at his bachelor party, also known as a stag party, around 11 p.m. as fans cheered from an adjacent bridge. They surprised the restaurant owner, Giovanni Fracassi, who had not expected the actor. Clooney kissed the man's wife upon arrival.
"it was a very intense night, it was unexpected," Fracassi told E! News. "He just called and said shortly beforehand, 'I want to come over.'"
Fracassi then asked several diners to move elsewhere inside the 37-seat venue as the group arrived and was seen putting up red and white polka dot tablecloths on the tables and screens on the windows to protect their privacy, a source said.
"It was amazing, he looked so happy and relaxed," one of the clients told E! News about Clooney. "He had exactly the same [meal] we had—starters with crab-stuffed zucchini flowers and fresh figs with baby shrimp. And then a selection of tortellini with black truffle and also risotto with porcini, chiodini and inferli mushrooms."
"I can tell you it was an amazing experience," the person added. "Some of the other clients tried to get an autograph, but his right-hand man told them that it was a really special night and that maybe they could ask again in the next few days when he was in Venice."

And of course, there were copious amounts of alcohol. Clooney's group arrived with three tequila bottles from his Casamigos label and also enjoyed wine–magnum Sassicaia 2010 vintage red, E! News has learned.
"He clearly looked as if he had been celebrating all day but there was no sign of the usual madness associated with a bachelor party," the client added. "Just lots of happiness, a relaxed group that looked as if they were celebrating with people they were really close to and cared about."
"He came in and it was clear it was a special place for him. He kissed the owners' wife on the cheek. Like old friends," another source told E! News. "I heard him talk to the owners as if they were family. The other clients, who had finished dinner, since it was 11 pm when they came in, refused to leave, it was so funny. You could clearly see it was a well-known place for him. He even wandered into the kitchen greeting everyone!"
The actor even autographed a wine bottle, writing, "Grazie, thank you for another perfect night. George Clooney." It is now displayed at the restaurant, along with other celebrity memorabilia, such as a photo of Elton John with the staff.
And what better way to end a fantastic bachelor party than with ice cream? After several hours, Clooney and his pals headed out and got themselves chocolate-coated Tuscan mint ice cream treats.
"We do wish him all the happiness in the world," the owner's wife said, about the actor and Alamuddin. "They are a really lovely couple."

George Clooney feasted like a king at Venice restaurant night before he was married
Even though he was set to marry future wife Amal Alamuddin in a matter of hours, the actor racked up a $5G bill at a Venice restaurant. Clooney had a little of everything that night, with plates of antipasto, pasta with truffles and even ice cream to cap off his final night as a bachelor.

Facebook George Clooney, Haiying Pan and Ristorante Da Ivo Venezia owner Giovanni Fracassi (l. to r.) at the restaurant where Clooney reportedly had his last meal as an unmarried man.

It was his last taste of freedom before getting married.

And it seems George Clooney spent it eating risotto, reports The Sunday Times (of London).

The manager of the Venice restaurant, Ristorante Da Ivo, where Clooney dined the night before marrying lawyer Amal Alamuddin has revealed that the heartthrob actor got through a hearty supper.

Clooney ate antipasto, pasta with truffles, two helpings of mushroom risotto, strawberries with vinegar and a traditional Italian dessert of zabaglione.
Just hours before his wedding, Clooney reportedly had a wide variety of things to eat, including antipasto, pasta with truffles, mushroom risotto, zabaglione and topped it all of with some ice cream.

He also helped himself to some ice cream.

Even better for Clooney, the $5,000 bill he ran with his guests was waived, said Giovanni Fracassi.

"No, he didn’t pay for his night, I didn’t want him to," said Fracassi, who added that the tip was “not much, like you would do for a friend.”
Clooney's $5,000 bill was waived as well by the restaurant, with the owner saying he was surprised that Clooney chose his restaurant. 'Vencie has man nicer restaurants than mine,' said Fracassi. PIERRE TEYSSOT/AFP/Getty Images Clooney's $5,000 bill was waived as well by the restaurant, with the owner saying he was surprised that Clooney chose his restaurant. 'Vencie has man nicer restaurants than mine,' said Fracassi.

Fracassi said that for a man getting married just 10 hours later, "he was really eating a lot."

Fracassi was honest enough to admit that he was surprised that Clooney chose his restaurant.

"Venice has many nicer restaurants than mine."

He had been phoned just 10 minutes before by Clooney’s assistant asking for a table for seven for somebody "important", reported the Sunday Times.

I guess he knew wifey would put him on a diet.

Another slow news day.  Well, if anyone knows how to lose weight.................

Why the Oscars deadline.. is he attending?


Wasn't there a story that Stacey put him on a diet as well?

This is obviously the same "friend" who says that Amal and George are headed to divorce. We talked about this story on the Christine Flowers thread. We've all seen pics of George these past few months. He looks the same. He even wore his wedding tux to the Globes and it looked like it fit him like it did at the end of September. Another story full of crap.

Yes, another slow news day PigPen.

Thanks for posting PP and opening up this GREAT thread of 
wonderful pictures....I've enjoyed my revision of George's 
"Night Out" with his closest friends.
I'm still amazed that none of them fell into the water !

Rande's face when George fell back onto him is a hoot. 

George doesn't allow himself to be over weight , he controls his weight. I think because of his neck injury .

What I didn't realise about the Da Ivo event, but have read since, is that 'The Boys' went in their boat to escort the girls to their venue before heading off to the restaurant - and then pitched up at their hotel after their meal.........

That explains one or two pictures of George with Amal in her red dress then.
