Following Amal Alamuddin’s arrival in Italy on Thursday for her wedding to George Clooney this weekend, the groom as well as a bevy of the couple’s A-list guests have arrived in Venice, too.

Clooney and Alamuddin were photographed waving to the cameras on Friday as they rode a water taxi with the Oscar winner’s best friends Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber.

According to USA Today, Matt Damon and his wife, Luciana, were also seen in Venice, in addition to Ellen Barkin, Miguel Ferrer, Richard Kind and Gabriel Byrne.

It’s rumored there will be a wedding on Saturday and a civil ceremony to follow on Monday.
Alamuddin was seen arriving at Milan airport, flying in from London, on Thursday with lots of luggage.

Clooney, 52, and the human rights lawyer, 36, got engaged in April. They obtained their marriage license in August, which was posted outside of Chelsea Old Town Hall in London, indicating they would marry in Italy.
