Casey Affleck's no-show at brother Ben Affleck’s wedding with Jennifer Lopez raises eyebrows
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez walked down the aisle for the second time a month after saying "I do" in Las Vegas. The star couple celebrated their wedding in a grand manner at Ben Affleck’s Georgia mansion which proved to be a star-studded affair. Ben Affleck’s loved ones might have made it to the wedding on Saturday, August 20, but his younger sibling Casey Affleck failed to mark his attendance at the occasion.
TMZ a few hours prior to Ben’s wedding obtained the video of the younger Affleck when he stepped out for a quick coffee run in Los Angeles. The publication revealed that the ‘Manchester By the Sea’ actor was in no mood to converse on the matter but he did utter a few words that sounded like he “fell asleep.” Speaking of Ben Affleck’s wedding to Jennifer Lopez, actors like Matt Damon, ‘Clerks’ actor Jason Mewes, director Kevin Smith, Jordan Monsanto, and top Hollywood talent agent Patrick Whitesell among a few others made it to the gorgeous venue in Georgia.

An insider spilled the beans to Hollywood Life that Jennifer Garner had a scheduling conflict due to a project she was working on. “Jennifer Garner is hard at work on a project in Texas and won’t be attending the wedding celebration, but she’s been totally supportive of her kids being there and is really positive in general about the whole thing”, said an insider.
The source added, “There is nothing more important to her than her kids’ happiness so the fact that they feel welcomed and at ease and have bonded with J.Lo and her kids is just the best thing she could ask for.”
