Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck Tie the Knot for the Second Time After Their Las Vegas Wedding

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck said "I Do" just about a month after their July 2022 wedding in Las Vegas. This time, the wedding was grander and took place at Affleck’s 87-acre property in Georgia on August 20, 2022, a source told Page Six. Lopez donned a beautiful gown by Ralph Lauren, while the groom looked dapper in a white tuxedo jacket, black bow tie, and black pants. 

They exchanged vows in front of their friends and family, which included some big names from the industry, like Matt Damon, Jimmy Kimmel, Casey Affleck, and Drea de Matteo, reported Marie Claire. They were joined by Affleck's three kids from his marriage to Jennifer Garner, Violet, 16, Seraphina, 13, and Sam, 11. Also present were JLo twins, Emme and Max, 14, whom she shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony.

Jennifer Garner was not a part of the festivities, and neither was Affleck's brother, Casey, per Daily Mail. 

A couple of days after their Vegas wedding, a source told PEOPLE that the couple "plan on having a bigger party so they can celebrate with family and friends."

"They don't have a honeymoon planned yet. Jennifer says that every day with Ben is a honeymoon," the source added. "Ever since they started dating again, Jennifer has truly believed that this is it. She is looking forward to growing old with Ben," shared the source. "She is very happy and content with Ben. She couldn't ask for anything else. She thinks it's all perfect."

The pair announced their engagement in April 2022, after having rekindled their romance in 2021.

According to the marriage license obtained by PEOPLE, Lopez has listed Affleck's last name as her own. In a newsletter sent out on Sunday, July 17, 2022, the singer, 53, who wed Ben Affleck, 50, wrote, "With love, Mrs. Jennifer Lynn Affleck."

The On The Floor singer shared details of their very intimate wedding via her On The JLo Newsletter. "We did it," she prefaced in the newsletter. "Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient. Exactly what we wanted. Last night we flew to Vegas, stood in line for a license with four other couples, all making the same journey to the wedding capital of the world."

"We barely made it to the little white wedding chapel by midnight. They graciously stayed open late a few minutes, let us take pictures in a pink Cadillac convertible, evidently once used by the king himself (but if we wanted Elvis himself to show, that cost extra and he was in bed)," Lopez added.

She raved about having her kids as "the best witnesses you could ever imagine" and revealed that she got married in a "dress from an old movie."

"We read our own vows in the little chapel and gave one another the rings we'll wear for the rest of our lives. They even had Bluetooth for a (short) march down the aisle. But in the end it was the best possible wedding we could have imagined," Lopez wrote. 

"When love is real, the only thing that matters in marriage is one another and the promise we make to love, care, understand, be patient, loving and good to one another. We had that. And so much more. Best night of our lives," the bride wrote at the time.

Here's wishing the couple a lifetime of love and happiness.
