โ€œIt was super, super small,โ€ an insider told Page Six. โ€œ[Jenniferโ€™s] mum and kids were there. They just wanted to be married so they got married.โ€

Whatโ€™s more, fans were even given a glimpse at one of her two wedding dresses thanks to a TikTok video uploaded by hair stylist, Chris Appleton.

The first was a simple white frock with matching bag that had been in JLoโ€™s wardrobe for years.

โ€œIโ€™ve had this dress for so many years, and Iโ€™ve just been saving it, saving it, saving it, and now Iโ€™m wearing it on my wedding day,โ€ she said in an emotional clip shared in her On the JLo newsletter.

Meanwhile her second dress that she wore to Vegasโ€™ iconic Little White Wedding Chapel was a more glamorous, off-the-shoulder and lacy Zuhair Murad bridal gown with a matching veil.

In February, Jennifer told People that her relationship with the Gone Girl actor is very different this time around.

โ€œWeโ€™re older now, weโ€™re smarter, we have more experience, weโ€™re at different places in our lives, we have kids now, and we have to be very conscious of those things,โ€ she said.

โ€œItโ€™s a beautiful outcome that this has happened in this way at this time in our lives where we can really appreciate and celebrate each other and respect each other.โ€
