George Clooney to Amal Alamuddin: "I can't wait be your husband"

George Clooney isn't holding back his excitement to walk down the aisle.

During Sunday's Celebrity Fight Night charity gala in Italy, the 53-year old actor received a special humanitarian award and talked about his upcoming nuptials with lawyer Amal Alamuddin, 36, in Venice.

Now video footage from the event has surfaced online, showing Clooney gushing over his fiancee (in the audience) during his acceptance speech: "In closing, I would just like to say to my bride-to-be Amal, that I love you very much, and I can't wait to be your husband."

After his closing, you can hear a woman in the audience (perhaps Alamuddin?), saying "Oh my God!"

Clooney said they plan to tie the knot in "a couple of weeks" in Venice.

The couple, who met in Italy, confirmed their engagement in April.
