Alamuddin wore a custom off-the-shoulder Oscar de la Renta French lace wedding dress with a floor-length veil. She wore minimal makeup and her hair in loose waves. Clooney, 53, opted for a traditional black and white tuxedo made by his favorite designer, Giorgio Armani.
The Hollywood actor and his bride reportedly wrote their own vows which were read under an arch of white roses at Venice's Aman Canal Grande Hotel. After the intimate ceremony, they partied the night away with loved ones.
"Clooney held Amal's hand when saying part of his vows," a source told Us magazine.
The couple, who are both passionate about philanthropy, appear to have followed the likes of Clooney's good friends Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie who sold their wedding photos to HELLO! and People magazines for $2.5 million each. Both couples reportedly donated every penny to charity.
"Brad and Angelina knew there would be tremendous interest in their wedding pictures, and decided to donate the money to their charitable foundation. The couple has done this numerous times in the past," a source told RadarOnline.com.
Guests, which included Hollywood stars like Sandra Bullock and Matt Damon, feasted on a five-course meal including lobster, risotto, sea bass, and beef, while canapés included prosciutto and figs.
Family and friends reportedly passed the microphone around while saying kind words about the couple and Ramzi Alamuddin, who is Clooney's father-in-law, suggested that they start trying for a baby.
"Now it's time for grandchildren!" he was quoted as telling the newlyweds during his speech.
Clooney and Alamuddin began dating last year and they announced their engagement in April.
Alamuddin is currently representing Wikileaks founder Julian Assange and is an adviser to Kofi Annan, the special envoy to Syria. Clooney, who is also passionate about human rights, recently boasted about his accomplished wife-to-be.
"I'm marrying up," Clooney told Variety magazine.
