08/22/2022 05:00 pm EDT
Affleck's brother Casey Affleck missed the ceremony
One notable absence was Affleck's brother Casey Affleck, whom he directed in Gone Baby Gone. A TMZ videographer spotted Casey in Los Angeles, but the famously private actor didn't give a clear response. He mumbled when asked about his brother's wedding, appearing to say he "fell asleep." The Daily Mail reports that Casey had "prior parental commitments" in Los Angeles. Casey has two sons with his ex-wife, Summer Phoenix.
Famous collaborators were there, but no exes
Affleck and Lopez invited many of their famous collaborators and friends to the wedding. Matt Damon and his wife, Luciana Barroso, were reportedly there, alongside Kevin Smith and his wife, Jennifer. Affleck's William Morris Endeavor agent Patrick Whiteshell was there, as was Lopez's friend Leah Remini. Author Jay Shetty officiated the wedding. Affleck's first wife, Jennifer Garner, was not there. Lopez's exes – Marc Anthony and Diddy – also skipped the nuptials.
Affleck and Garner are parents to three children, Violet, 16, Seraphina, 13, and Sam, 11. Lopez and Anthony are parents to 14-year-old twins Max and Emme. They were reportedly at the wedding.
Lopez's dress was a custom Ralph Lauren design
Before the wedding, sources told Page Six that Lopez was expected to wear a custom Ralph Lauren dress made in Italy and Vogue is expected to publish photos of the dress. Lopez has a long relationship with the designer, recently wearing Ralph Lauren during the 2021 Met Gala. Lopez wore Alexander McQueen and Zuhair Murad gowns on the weekend she married Affleck in Vegas.
The wedding happened at Affleck's 87-acre estate on Hampton Island Preserve
The wedding ceremony on Saturday was part of a three-day celebration in Georgia. They married at Affleck's 87-acre compound on Hampton Island Preserve, where white was the dominant color of the day. Affleck even wore a white tuxedo. Jay and Silent Bob stars Jason Mewes and Smith posted a photo showing themselves and their wives also wearing all white to the ceremony.
Affleck's mother was reportedly rushed to the hospital before the wedding
Affleck's mother, Christopher Anne Boldt, was hospitalized on Friday, before the wedding. An ambulance was seen in photos taken outside Affleck's estate. Boldt reportedly fell from a dock and was taken to a hospital in nearby Savannah. She wasn't in the hospital long, as photos showed her leaving the building in a wheelchair, reports PEOPLE.
Lopez thought the wedding was 'perfect'
While we wait for comments from Lopez and Affleck themselves, those close to the celebrity couple are already talking about the wedding. One source told PEOPLE Lopez thought the ceremony was "perfect."
"It was a dream for her. She loved having all the kids there. She loved the location. It all felt very special," the insider said, adding that feels "extremely happy being married" to Affleck. "She keeps saying 'my husband and it's very cute," the insider added.
