Officially Wed, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck

A source close to Jennifer Lopez tells CNN that she and Ben Affleck are now legally married.
According to the source, the pair wed on Saturday in “an private ceremony in Las Vegas.”

In her newsletter on Sunday, Lopez announced the couple’s Vegas nuptials and gave Jennifer Lynn Affleck a new name.

“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. “We barely made it to the little white wedding chapel by midnight. They graciously stayed open late a few minutes, let us take pictures in a pink Cadillac convertible, evidently once used by the king himself (but if we wanted Elvis himself to show, that cost extra and he was in bed).”

Lopez wrote she wore a dress from an old movie and Affleck wore a jacket from his 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,” she wrote. “In the end it was the best possible wedding we could have imagined.”

More than 20 years have passed since the beginning of the Bennifer love story. On the set of the romantic comedy “Gigli” in December 2001, when they played criminals stranded on a job together and developed a genuine friendship in real life, the couple first got to know one another.

By November 2002, the two were engaged. However, due to “excessive media attention,” they decided to postpone their wedding until September 2003.

They formally called off their engagement in January 2004 but never made it down the aisle.

After spending the next 17 years apart, having children and getting married, Lopez and Affleck eventually reconnected.

In April, as Lopez was enjoying a bubble bath, Affleck again got down on one knee.

“I was taken totally off guard and just looked in his eyes smiling and crying at the same time trying hard to get my head around the fact that after 20 years this was happening all over again, I was quite literally speechless and he said, ‘is that a yes?’ I said YES of course that’s a YES,” she wrote in her newsletter.
