We’ve waited days since Jennifer Lopez officially tied the knot (for a second time) to Ben Affleck to see photos of her custom Ralph Lauren wedding dress. After initially marrying in a Las Vegas ceremony in July, the couple said “I do” in front of family and friends in Georgia on August 20 at Affleck’s estate. While paparazzi photos captured the couple in elegant white looks, Lopez finally shared official photos from their special day.
Just like after their first wedding ceremony at A Little White Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas, Lopez posted a first-look on her blog, On the JLo. And just like the quick-change she did in Vegas, the Georgia ceremony also had a few different looks — three custom ones from Ralph Lauren to be exact!
In the first pic, Jennifer Lopez stood in front of a full-length mirror in her ceremony gown, which the brand described as a reimagined turtleneck column dress with ruffle hem. The skirt contained over 1,000 hand-cut handkerchiefs and 500 meters of ruffled fabric that was attached by hand. The cap-sleeve featured a cascading ruffle from the back of the turtleneck for a “romantic, heritage-inspired sensibility.”
Lopez’s second dress was covered in thousands of cascading strings of pearls. It took 30 artisans over 700 hours to hand-embroider the design with micro-pleats of silk tulle, tiny pearl embellishments, and Swarovski crystals.
Her third look of the night was a body-hugging mermaid moment. The halter style gown with full skirt and organza overlay, had an embellished keyhole cutout and back design embellished with Swarovski crystals.
“The dresses were dreamy… thank you Ralph Lauren 🤍,” Lopez captioned the photos in her On the JLo newsletter.
Already craving more? Us too. Ralph Lauren also shared close-up detailed shots of Lopez’s “dreamy” designs. And the star promised fans she’ll be “sharing a few more pics and delicious details on our big day coming very soon On The JLo…”
We do know that the groom also went with custom Ralph Lauren, in a classic tuxedo cream-colored dinner jacket with black pants, piqué bib shirt, black bow tie and patent shoes.
Lopez has been a longtime fan of the American brand, and wore a Western-inspired ensemble by Ralph Lauren to the 2021 Met Gala in September.
For Lopez’s first trip down the aisle in Vegas to marry Affleck, she went with a look straight from her own closet. “I’ve had this dress for so many years, and I’ve just been saving it, and saving it, and saving it, and now I’m wearing it on my wedding day,” Lopez said on her website of the sleeveless throwback number. In other photos, she swapped into an off-the-shoulder long-sleeve white lace wedding dress from Zuhair Murad’s Bridal Spring Summer 2023 Collection with a sweetheart-style neckline, corset bodice and fishtail train, and completed the look with a matching lace-trimmed veil.
