Jennifer Lopez Affleck recently shared brand new details about her lavish second wedding to Ben Affleck, which took place in Georgia in August. “It had rained at sunset every day that week. Everyone was worried about the heat, the aptly named ‘love bugs,’ the details, would the guests all arrive on time, etc.—not to mention the thunder and lightning that arrived almost on cue each day at the exact time the ceremony was supposed to start that Saturday,” Lopez Affleck wrote in her “On the JLo” newsletter on September 1. “The truth is, I never had one doubt. All week I felt the calm and easy certainty that we were in God’s hands…”
She shared that they walked down the aisle to Marc Cohn’s “True Companion,” the same song they originally chose for their canceled wedding back in the early aughts. “The twenty years between those dreams of youth and the adult world of love and family we embraced that day, brought more to this marriage than either of us ever could have imagined,” wrote Lopez Affleck. “We weren’t only marrying one another; we were marrying these children into a new family.”
She continued, “Some old wounds were healed that day and the weight of the past finally lifted off our shoulders. Full-circle—and not at all the way we planned it. Better.”
