Well, no one saw this coming! Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are officially husband and wife. (Here's a reminder of what her stunning green diamond engagement ring looks like.) If you expected it to be a big, glamorous affair, think again. The two married during a late-night ceremony last night in Las Vegas. Lopez shared the news today via her On the JLo newsletter, even sharing a few candid photos. 

Lopez said that she and Affleck married at A Little White Wedding Chapel with their children as their witnesses. Instead of a custom designer gown, Lopez also shared that she wore "a dress from an old movie" and that Affleck wore a jacket from his closet. One of our dear readers (and a fashion PR we know, no less) informed us that it was an Alexander McQueen dress, which she knew because she bought it from Selfridges back in 2015 for her own wedding.

Lopez also wore a veil for the occasion. The dress is a sweet fit-and-flare embroidered dress that's surprisingly low-key but also perfect for the somewhat casual wedding. She kept her jewellery minimal, and her hair and makeup were natural but definitely wedding ready. Scroll to see her first Instagram post as Mrs. Affleck (she changed her name to Jennifer Lynn Affleck) with a simple silver wedding band on her finger, as well as a few more candid photos from the momentous occasion.
