Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck flew to Nevada this weekend to tie the knot at a ceremony in Las Vegas.
And in her On the JLo newsletter, the 52-year-old entertainer told me she was wearing a dress “from an old movie.”
It turns out the star actually wore two dresses for the big day, the second being a lace selection from Zuhair Murad.

In addition to the matron sleeveless dress from an earlier film she was working on, the fashionista wore a little more glamour.
Her designer dress boasted long sleeves with an off-the-shoulder detail and a sweetheart neckline.
It had a corset bodice and a long train, along with a lace trim veil.
Meanwhile, Jennifer noticed that her new husband was wearing a coat from his own closet.
The mother of two – who shares 14-year-old twins with ex-husband Marc Anthony – beamed in photos shared with fans on Sunday.

Lopez received the star treatment from noted hairdresser-artist Chris Appleton.
He gave her a voluminous look of deep, luscious curls that fell a chestnut color across her chest.
Prior to her vows, he asked the music artist how she was feeling, to which she replied, “I feel great. I’m so excited!’
Then she gave some background on her dress as she explained, “I’ve had this dress for so many years and I was saving and keeping it and now, and now I’m wearing it on my wedding day.”

The wedding comes nearly 20 years after the couple called off their engagement due to “excessive media attention.”
At the time, they had hired decoy brides to appear in various locations to trick the paparazzi.
This time, the couple slipped away with their children for an intimate ceremony.
“They both thought it was a fun and casual way to tie the knot,” an insider said Us Weekly.

After meeting on the set of the movie Gigli in 2002, Jen and Ben fell in love and adopted the collective name “Bennifer” given to them by fans.
After a proposal complete with a six-carat pink diamond ring, the pair planned a lavish wedding in September 2003 in Santa Barbara.
However, just days before the date, the duo announced that they planned to postpone the event.
Months later, they ended their romance completely, with Lopez marrying Anthony the following year and Affleck marrying Jennifer Garner shortly after.
