Jennifer Lopez, 52, and Ben Affleck, 49, walked down the aisle at the Little White Chapel in Las Vegas shortly before midnight on Saturday July 16th.
The couple, who have been engaged since April this year, then flew to Paris to celebrate their honeymoon.
“We did it. Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient….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,” Lopez wrote to her fans in her ‘On the JLo’ newsletter on July 17th.
“Behind us two men held hands and held each other,” Lopez continued. “In front of us, a young couple who made the 3 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.”
Ryan Wolfe, the lead pastor at Grace Christian Center of Las Vegas, said the couple had “their own vows that they wanted to share with one another” during the ceremony and reports say the couple looked very much in love.
Ben and J-Lo first started dating back in 2002 when they met on the set of film ‘Gigi’, they postponed their wedding set for September 2003 and officially split up in January 2004.
After both remarrying other partners and having children, the couple got back together last July.
