A source told E! that they all grabbed something to eat at Dunn’s Famous, a restaurant in the downtown area.”They were all having a great time and in a good mood. They requested to sit upstairs in a private area.” He added that “there wasn’t much drinking but there was some laughing going on. They were just having a good time.”
Kimmel and his friends then went on a two-hour bike ride around the city. They stopped to take pictures with the man of the hour and the beautiful scenery reports E!
“I’m not that involved with the wedding planning, but I will be there,” Jimmy Kimmel told Us Weekly. “It’ll be mostly a family affair and there will be a Catholic priest officiating.”
Their special day started the night before with a rehearsal dinner with family and friends. A post-wedding brunch was enjoyed after the ceremony.
