Jennifer Lopez saved her wedding dress ‘for so many years’

Worth the wait.

For her wedding to Ben Affleck in Las Vegas over the week, Jennifer Lopez wore not one, but two beautiful bridal dresses.

And one of her big-day looks, a sleeveless white Alexander McQueen gown in textured floral jacquard, had been waiting in the superstar’s closet for a truly special occasion.

“I’ve had this dress for so many years, and I’ve just been saving it, saving it, saving it, and now I’m wearing it on my wedding day,” Lopez, 52, shared in a video included in Sunday’s edition of her On The JLo newsletter confirming the nuptials.

People was the first to report that the “Waiting for Tonight” hitmaker had pulled the McQueen design out of her closet to tie the knot with Affleck, 49. The dress, which originally retailed for $5,175, also features a jewel neckline, fitted bodice and gathered full skirt.

In her newsletter, Lopez shared that she wore “a dress from an old movie” down the aisle at the Little White Wedding Chapel; it’s unknown to which film she was referring.

The “Marry Me” star’s other bridal look was an off-the-shoulder lace gown by Zuhair Murad with long sleeves, a sweetheart neckline, corset bodice and fishtail train. Lopez paired it with a matching lace-trimmed veil and bouquet.

Affleck, meanwhile, sported a white tux from his own closet to say “I do.”

But these won’t be the last of Bennifer’s wedding looks: As a source tells Page Six, the couple are planning a multi-day party for friends and family to celebrate their union, which which double as a 53rd birthday party for Lopez.

Per our source, the pair would like to hold the event sometime in the next two weeks for “everyone they love but could not invite” to their Vegas wedding, which was only attended by their children.
