Bless Jennifer Lopez’s heart for sharing the iconic details of that special day with us.
Jennifer Lopez Shares Inside Details Of Her and Affleck’s “Perfect” Wedding
Guys, this is not a drill. Earlier this week, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck tied the knot in a surprise ceremony in Las Vegas after obtaining a wedding license on Saturday. TMZ initially broke the story, reporting that the pair had filed for the license in their full legal names, Benjamin Geza Affleck and Jennifer Lynn Lopez).
On Sunday, the “Marry Me” actress confirmed the news on the night edition of her “On the Jlo” newsletter. She also shared some pictures, along with the wedding details.
“We did it. Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient,” she wrote, before delving into her and Ben’s wedding story. “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. Behind us two men held hands and held each other. In front of us, a young couple who made the three hour drive from Victorville on their daughter’s second birthday—all of us wanting the same thing— for the world to recognize us as partners and to declare our love to the world through the ancient and nearly universal symbol of marriage.”

Lopez then shared details of the “small” affair and how they were able to pull it together. Turns out that she and Affleck almost didn’t make it in time for their own wedding, but the staff “graciously stayed open late a few minutes”. They even got to snap some memorable pics in a pink Cadillac convertible that was “evidently once used by the king himself (but if we wanted Elvis himself to show, that cost extra and he was in bed).”
Jennifer Lopez On the “Old” Gown She Wore to Her Wedding
What we obviously want to know most about Affleck and Lopez’s wedding is, without a doubt, the wedding gown. For the special walk of her life, Lopez opted to don a vintage. She didn’t go for the glitz and glamour of the wedding gown she wore for her role in “Marry Me”.
