It was revealed that the actor wore three custom gowns for her wedding celebrations that were created with “love, care, and consideration woven into every detail of the silhouettes. Modern heirlooms for a timeless romance,” as mentioned Ralph Lauren on its social media.
The fashion house, which also shared details about the dreamy outfits, further wrote: “Drawing inspiration from archival #RalphLauren pieces, #JenniferLopez’s custom handkerchief wedding gown reimagines a turtleneck column dress with the addition of a dramatic ruffle hem.” It added that over “1,000 hand-cut handkerchiefs and 1,640 feet of fabric were cut into ruffles and attached hand, creating a voluminous, romantic skirt. Each handkerchief becomes a nostalgic keepsake and a modern heirloom, while the intricate constructed ruffled sleeves become a statement in craftsmanship and dignified design.”

“The silhouette reimagines its column shape with a collection of spectacular ruffles at the hem, its sculptural design flowing effortlessly from the delicate turtleneck into a voluminous work of art,” Ralph Lauren added.
Later, Jennifer slipped into a chandelier pearl gown that, as per People, featured micro-pleats of silk tulle, pearl, and Swarovski embellishment; and was hand-made 30 artisans who took 700 hours to create it.

 
The third gown featured a sleek mermaid silhouette and came with a removable hood and embellished keyhole neckline.

The groom, on the other hand, complemented her in a classic white tuxedo jacket paired with black trousers and a matching bow tie from the same designer.
The star couple tied the knot for the second time over the weekend (Saturday) in a star-studded three-day ceremony in Georgia which was, reportedly, officiated celebrity life coach Jay Shetty.
While Jennifer has been married thrice, it was ben’s second marriage after he divorced Jennifer Garner in 2018.
