Kanye West and Kim Kardashian

Kanye West enjoyed a low-key guys' night out before he marries Kim Kardashian.

The 36-year-old rapper, who is expected to legally tie the knot with his reality TV star fiancée over the next few days ahead of their lavish wedding in Paris later this month, caught up with several of his pals, including Tyga, at his home in Los Angeles on Thursday night (01.05.14), but is planning to have a proper bachelor party in France.

A source told gossip website X17.com: "Kanye wanted to have a boys' night before he and Kim get their wedding licence. It wasn't a full-blown bachelor party with strippers or anything, just a chill night with friends.

"Some of the boys did let loose, but I'm sure Kanye will do something bigger in Paris."

Earlier in the evening the 'New Slaves' hitmaker joined a small group to celebrate the launch of businessman Ben Horowitz's new book, 'The Hard Thing About Hard Things: Building a Business When There Are No Easy Answers.'

And a source told E! News that he has "never looked happier."

The insider added: "(He was) talking to everyone and was in such an incredible mood. I've never seen him smile more. You could tell he was just really happy to be there."
