Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are married (again.)

On August 20, just about a month after their intimate Las Vegas ceremony, the couple said their “I do’s” once more — this time at Affleck’s $9 million, 87-acre Georgia mansion.

They had actually planned to get married at this same luxurious venue back in 2003 before their split the following year.

Big names like Matt Damon, Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes joined many of Lopez and Affleck’s family and friends at the extravagant ceremony. Famous life coach Jay Shetty officiated the wedding.

Affleck looked radiant in a tuxedo with a white jacket, while Lopez stunned in a white Ralph Lauren dress with a long train and a gorgeous veil. There was an all-white dress code for the guests as well.

Affleck’s brother, Casey, expressed his support for the newlyweds on Instagram. “Good things are worth waiting for,” he wrote. “Here is to twists and turns, new beginnings and finding new reservoirs of old love.”

The actor also took the opportunity to poke some fun at his family. “Welcome to the family. Get ready for some real dysfunction!” He joked. “Kidding. I am kidding. Jen, you are a gem. We love you so much!!!”

Lopez and Affleck’s first wedding took place at the Little White Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas on July 16. The singer shared details about the romantic affair in her newsletter for fans, On The JLo. “We did it,” she wrote. “Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient.”

The Marry Me actress kept gushing. “They were right when they said, ‘all you need is love.’ We are so grateful to have that in abundance, a new wonderful family of five amazing children and a life that we have never had more reason to look forward to,” she shared.

“Bennifer” met all the way back in 2001 and fell in love on the set of their rom-com, Gigli. They got engaged in 2002 and famously called things off in 2004 because of the pressures of romance under a microscope.

Two decades after sparks first flew between the actors, they rekindled their romance in April, 2021.

A few weddings later, it seems like things are working out better this time around.
