Jennifer Lopez, Ben Affleck hire luxury event planner for lavish wedding bash

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are pulling out all the stops for their upcoming wedding celebration.

Multiple sources exclusively tell Page Six that the newlyweds — who got legally hitched in Las Vegas on July 16 — have hired luxury event planner Colin Cowie to create the lavish wedding bash of their dreams.

One insider confirmed that the party will take place at Affleck’s 87-acre property in Riceboro, Ga., likely in the next few weeks.

Cowie has created some of the most extravagant soirées for some of the biggest names in Hollywood, including Oprah Winfrey, Kim Kardashian, Jerry Seinfeld, Michael Jordan, Nicole Kidman and even Lopez in the past.

He and his team promise to give their clients everything from “a royal wedding of epic proportions [to] the most glamorous, sophisticated and tasteful backyard wedding.”

But his services are not for those with shallow pockets. According to Cowie’s website, his company — which has offices in New York and Los Angeles — produces national and international events “with budgets ranging from $25,000 to $25 million.”

A source previously told us Lopez and Affleck’s wedding celebration would be a multi-day affair and that there could be a party on the nearby St. Simons Island, known for its beautiful beaches, wellness retreats and a picturesque lighthouse.

We were told that the two- or three-day ordeal would be for “everyone they love but could not invite” to their shock nuptials in Sin City.

The source also said the couple’s guest list includes famous pals Casey Affleck, Matt Damon, Jimmy Kimmel and Lopez’s “Shades of Blue” co-star, Drea de Matteo.

The multifaceted entertainer, who just celebrated her 53rd birthday while on her Parisian honeymoon, and the Oscar-winning actor, 49, rekindled their romance last year nearly two decades after calling off their first engagement.

In a “spur-of-the-moment” decision, the pair “flew to Vegas” and said “I do” at A Little White Chapel in front of two of their five combined children: Lopez’s Emme, 14, and Affleck’s Seraphina, 13.

The “Jenny From the Block” singer is also mom to Emme’s twin, Maximillian, whom she shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony, while the “Argo” star co-parents Sera, Violet, 16, and Samuel, 10, with ex-wife Jennifer Garner.

Reps for Lopez, Affleck and Cowie did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.
