Bennifer’s Surprise Vegas Wedding Inspired Funny Tweets & Memes

J.Lo is now Jennifer Affleck, and Twitter is over the moon. Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck got married in Las Vegas on July 16, more than 20 years after they first started dating in 2002 before calling off their first planned wedding and splitting in 2004. TMZ was the first to report that the couple got their marriage license, before J.Lo confirmed the wedding to fans in her On the J.Lo newsletter. “We did it,” she wrote. “Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient. Exactly what we wanted.”

Fans and celebrities alike are elated for the newlyweds, who stayed friendly in the decades since their breakup but only got back together romantically in 2021, much to the surprise of the entire world. Since reuniting, Bennifer has moved fast, getting engaged in April and tying the knot at a Las Vegas chapel with only their children in attendance. “In the end it was the best possible wedding we could have imagined,” J.Lo wrote. “One we dreamed of long ago and one made real (in the eyes of the state, Las Vegas, a pink convertible and one another) at very, very long last.”
