JLO and Ben’s wedding in Vegas

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck said “I do” in a low-key wedding in Las Vegas this weekend. Here’s what we learned.

It was take two for the two Hollywood stars after their failed 2003 wedding . This time, the 52-year-old singer and actress and the 49-year-old actor didn’t change their minds at the last minute.

The news of the wedding was announced yesterday (July 17) by Jennifer Lopez herself in her newsletter On The JLo. The star confirmed that she walked down the aisle wearing “a dress from an old movie.” The wedding dress from Zuhair Murad‘s bridal collection was made of white lace with long sleeves, sweetheart neckline, corset and fishtail train, and a matching lace-trimmed veil.

Later, JLO donned another simple, sleeveless dress that featured a quilted fabric.

For his part, Ben Affleck wore a white tuxedo from his own closet, as his new wife wrote, as the couple exchanged “the rings we will wear for the rest of our lives” at the Little White Wedding chapel.

Last April, the couple had announced their engagement. The actor proposed with an 8.5-carat natural green diamond flanked by a pair of white trapezoidal diamonds.

Jennifer Lopez wrote last weekend, “Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Patient for 20 years.”

TheLittle White Wedding is a Las Vegas landmark that has celebrated love since 1951. Sylvester Stalone, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Brittney Spears, Freddie Prince Jr. Joan Collins, Michael Jordan, Slash, Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, Frank Sinatra and Mia Farrow, Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner are just a few of the stars who have been married there over the years.
