Clooney And Bride Appear In Public After Wedding

By Tom Kington, for Sky News in Venice

George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin have appeared in public for the first time as a married couple.

They waved from a motor launch on Venice's Grand Canal after tying the knot at a ceremony in the lagoon city on Saturday.

The couple smiled to crowds after leaving the Aman hotel in Venice where they had exchanged vows the evening before and spent their first night together as Mr and Mrs Clooney.

Stepping into a motor launch, the Hollywood star and the British-Lebanese lawyer set off to join friends and family staying at Venice's Cipriani hotel.

The couple were surrounded by over 20 launches packed with photographers and police who made up an impressive flotilla which stretched across the width of the canal.

Fifty-three-year-old Clooney, wearing a grey suit and tie, waved as members of the public cheered him and his wife, who was wearing a white dress embroidered with pink and fuschia designs.

The dress was among a number of striking outfits that human rights lawyer Alamuddin, 36, has worn in Venice, reportedly on the advice of US Vogue editor Anna Wintour, who was a guest at the wedding.

Police launches sounded their sirens as boats jostled to squeeze round a water bus filled with surprised tourists in the canal, moments before Clooney's launch passed under the Accademia bridge, where up at 200 people waved and threw flowers.

The previous night, guests including Matt Damon, Bono, Cindy Crawford and actress Emily Blunt partied until 2am after Clooney and Alamuddin reportedly entered the palazzo through an arch of white roses before exchanging vows.

The announcement that the couple had tied the knot on Saturday was made by Clooney's spokesman Stan Rosenfield when the party was under way.

"George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin were married today (September 27) in a private ceremony in Venice, Italy," Rosenfield said in Los Angeles.

The inscrutable Vogue editor Anna Wintour is also among guests

The announcement came as a surprise since the couple are officially due to wed in a civil ceremony in Venice on Monday.

Venice City Council had previously said it would block off streets around the municipal building due to host the ceremony to keep onlookers away.

Italian media suggested on Saturday that the Monday ceremony would go ahead to render the marriage legal in Italy.

The wedding was Clooney's second after he was married in 1989 to actress Talia Balsam.

Clooney and Balsam exchanged vows before an Elvis impersonator in Las Vegas and separated four years later.
