Ben Affleck’s daughter Violet skipped his wedding with JLo to show loyalty to mom Jennifer Garner
Over the weekend, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez exchanged vows, but their wedding party was missing one important member, Violet, the eldest daughter of Affleck. In order to show respect for her mother, Jennifer Garner, the 'Argo' star's oldest daughter, Violet, 16, reportedly skipped the Las Vegas wedding last weekend. A source told Page Six, “Violet stayed home because she’s extremely loyal to her mom.”
The source also claimed that Affleck had informed Garner about the ceremony at the last moment. The source said, “Ben did tell Jen about the wedding, but I’m told that it was only Friday at the earliest. It was very, very minimally planned in advance and was largely spur-of-the-moment. [Lopez] has been ready to get married since the night that Ben proposed. She wanted to lock this down and remove any chance for cold feet ASAP!”

Even though Violet didn’t attend, two other Lopez-Affleck kids were there, Sera, 13, whom Affleck shares with Garner, and Emme, 14, whom Lopez shares with ex Marc Anthony. The 'Marry Me’ actress posted a photo of Emme at the wedding on Sunday, July 17. A source reportedly told Page Six that Sera was present. However, there was no explanation provided as to why Affleck's other children Sam, 10, and Max, 14, Emme's twin, weren't present for the wedding.
Meanwhile, Lopez wrote in her OnTheJLo newsletter, “They were right when they said, ‘all you need is love. We are so grateful to have that in abundance, a new wonderful family of five amazing children and a life that we have never had more reason to look forward to.” “Stick around long enough and maybe you’ll find the best moment of your life in a drive-through in Las Vegas at twelve-thirty in the morning in the tunnel of love drive-through, with your kids and the one you’ll spend forever with. Love is a great thing, maybe the best of things — and worth waiting for,” she added.

Garner, on the other hand, appeared to be unconcerned about her ex-husband getting married as she relaxed in the sun on Lake Tahoe in Northern California. According to a source who spoke to Hollywood Life, Garner was ‘happy’ when Affleck and Lopez got engaged. The source added, “She acted completely favorable to it and even congratulated them. Jennifer and Ben have been broken up for a very long time and there is no reason whatsoever that she would be upset about this. She is happy if he is sober and he is doing well, both of which he is and both of which are of utmost importance to JLo.”
