Ben Affleck quoted his own movie in wedding speech to Jennifer Lopez, who of course, loved it

Yes, JLo, how perfect indeed. The line does have a certain je ne sais quoi to it that would seem fitting for a romantic speech, but we have to wonder if there were other lines Affleck work-shopped before landing on that one from his violent 1920s mobster flick. Guess their shared film Gigli didn’t have much to offer in terms of poetic proses for the newlywed couple?

While Affleck’s wedding speech may have been flawless, Lopez discussed further in her post that the lead-up to the big day was anything but magical, with issues like a mass stomach bug and untimely rain popping up throughout the week.

“It had rained at sunset every day that week,” she wrote. “Everyone was worried about the heat, the aptly named ‘love bugs,’ the details, would the guests all arrive on time, etc.—not to mention the thunder and lightning that arrived almost on cue each day at the exact time the ceremony was supposed to start that Saturday.”

The singer added, “Oh, and all of us caught a stomach bug and were recuperating ‘til late in the week, that, and along with a few other unexpected setbacks, had all the makings of a doozie of a wedding weekend.”

None of that stopped the rekindled couple, as they eventually made it down the aisle and tied the knot at Affleck’s Georgia home on August 20.
