See All of J Lo’s Wedding Dresses Through the Years, on Screen and in Real Life
It hasn’t been that long since they announced their buzzy second engagement in April 2022, but Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are officially married. Lopez broke the news in her newsletter, On the JLo, sharing that they exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony.
For the occasion, Lopez wore two distinct white dresses, the first being a “dress from an old movie,” as she wrote in the newsletter. Designed with a classic boatneck neckline and a boned bodice, the fitted number also featured a textured, floor-grazing maxi skirt. The 52-year-old superstar accessorised with a sparkly pair of studs and a diamond tennis bracelet, and her hair was styled into half-up bouncy waves. “So with the best witnesses you could ever imagine, a dress from an old movie, and a jacket from Ben’s closet, we read our own vows in the little chapel and gave one another the rings we’ll wear for the rest of our lives,” Lopez wrote.
For her second wedding gown, the star opted for a glamorous Zuhair Murad style from the spring 2023 bridal collection that included a stunning fishtail train. With its off-shoulder sweetheart neckline, long lace sleeves, and corsetted bodice, this bridal look is decidedly feminine and sultry. Another embellishment of note: her matching lace-trimmed veil.
The couple’s long-lasting romance came full circle, as they were previously engaged but parted ways in January 2004. As J Lo put it, “Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient. Exactly what we wanted.”
As we anxiously await pictures of the ceremony, let’s revisit some of J Lo’s wedding dresses, both on and off-screen.
