Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are reportedly planning a second, even more, expensive wedding according to usmagazine. Page Six reports that the Selena actress, 53, and the Pearl Harbor actor, 50, have planned a spectacular three-day celebration at Ben’s house in Georgia, beginning with a rehearsal dinner on Friday, August 19. The wedding itself will take place on August 21. It will be all about J.Lo, a source reportedly informed the publication. Ben wants her to be the center of attention on their wedding day. HollywoodLife has reached out to their representatives for comment but has received no response.
The expansive estate of Ben outside of Savannah, Georgia, is more than suitable for a huge gathering. According to Homes and Gardens, the approximately 87-acre estate on Hampton Island overlooks the North Newport River. There are reportedly two enormous houses on the property, one measuring 6,000 square feet and the other 10,000 square feet, as well as a cottage affectionately named “The Summer Cottage.”
The report follows Bennifer 2.0’s surprise wedding at the Little White Chapel in Las Vegas on July 16. Jennifer said in a post-wedding newsletter, “We did it!” “Love is gorgeous. Love is nice. And indeed, love proves to be patient. Twenty years of endurance, Therefore, with the best witnesses imaginable, a dress from an old movie, and a jacket from Ben’s closet, we read our own vows in the little chapel and exchanged the rings we’ll wear for the rest of our lives…it was the best wedding we could have ever imagined. In the eyes of the state, Las Vegas, a pink convertible, and each other have finally become a reality,” she continued.
Ben’s Good Will Hunting friend Matt Damon and his brother, Ocean’s Eleven actor Casey Affleck, will attend the second event, which is expected to attract a significantly larger crowd.
