Following their flash wedding in Las Vegas, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck tied the knot for the second time at a three-day celebration over the weekend. For the singer, the wedding should have been “a dream”, as an insider now reveals.
From the location to the guests, Jennifer Lopez is said to be gushing about her wedding to Ben Affleck. In any case, an alleged insider told “People” magazine that the opulent three-day celebration in the US state of Georgia over the weekend was “a dream” for the singer.
The 53-year-old feels “extremely lucky” to be Ben Affleck’s wife. “She keeps saying ‘my husband’ and that’s very cute.” She also loved “having all the kids there. She loved the place. It all felt very special,” the source said.
Lopez’ twins Emme and Maximilian were present. The 14-year-old comes from her marriage to singer Marc Anthony. Ben Affleck’s children from his first marriage to Jennifer Garner were also there: Violet, 16, Seraphina, three years his junior, and Samuel, ten. Affleck’s ex-wife Jennifer Garner reportedly declined to attend the celebrations. Another insider told Hollywood Life magazine. She “is working hard on a project in Texas and as a result will not be attending the wedding reception,” the statement said. But she already “wished all the best” to the newlyweds.
The wedding party’s dress code was exceptional: all wedding guests wore white – and Lopez wore an Italian-made white Ralph Lauren dress with a long train, Fox News reported. The US celebrity portal “TMZ” published aerial photos of a covered banquet table on the shore. According to information from the “Bild” newspaper, the Hindu monk and life coach Jay Shetty led the ceremony.
A month ago, Lopez and Affleck had said yes in a small group in Las Vegas. This weekend’s party, on the other hand, was at Affleck’s home in Savannah, Georgia.
According to “People” magazine, the property in the southern US state has special meaning for the newlyweds. “Ben bought the property 20 years ago when they were first engaged,” a source said. Affleck and Lopez dated from 2002 to 2004. “They have a special connection there and his 50th birthday was last week so it made sense to do it that day.”
