George Clooney and Amal Almuddin have picked a wedding location.

The Oscar winner and the international law attorney will tie the knot in Venice, Italy! 

Clooney revealed they had chosen the City of Canals for their big day during his speech earlier tonight at the Celebrity Fight Night in Italy Gala in Florence. Rumors of a Venice wedding circulated earlier this summer.

"He said he is an honorary 12-year resident of Italy and then said they were getting married in Venice," a source said. "He also said to Amal [from the podium], 'I love you very much.'"

Sources also tell E! News that Clooney revealed the wedding will take place in a couple of weeks.

Clooney, Reba McEntire and Lionel Richie were honored with the inaugural Andrea Bocelli Humanitarian Awards at the gala, which benefits the Andrea Bocelli Foundation and The Muhammad Ali Parkinson Center.

Almuddin stunned in a strapless black Dolce & Gabanna gown and long jeweled earrings.

Tonight marked Clooney's first red carpet appearance since traveling to Duke University and then to a hospital in Dusseldorf, Germany a little over a week ago for treatment for a back injury that he suffered years ago while filming a very violent scene in Syriana.

Meanwhile, the bride-to-be sparked speculation a few days ago that she's going to wearing an Alexander McQueen wedding dress because she and her mother, Barria, spent two hours on Thursday at the fashion house's London headquarters.
