Casey Affleck has revealed why he skipped his brother Ben's star-studded second wedding ceremony to Jennifer Lopez.
Hollywood actor Ben, 50, and the On The Floor hitmaker, 53, tied the knot in his £6.7 million home in Savannah, Georgia, over the weekend – just weeks after their Las Vegas nuptials.
But several important people were missing from the ceremony, including Ben's brother Casey. In a video obtained by TMZ, a videographer walked up to him as he stepped out of a coffee shop to ask: "How come you're not at your brother's wedding today?"
"I had other things," Casey, 47, replied before getting into a car and shutting the door.
Meanwhile, a source previously told People magazine that Casey, who is dad to Indiana, 18, and Atticus, 14, wouldn't be able to attend the couple's nuptials "unfortunately because of family, parental obligations at home."
Since the wedding, however, Casey has taken to his Instagram feed to post a photo of Ben, Jennifer and himself walking together in California back in 2002.
Welcoming the singer into the family, he captioned this: "Good things are worth waiting for. Here is to twists and turns, new beginnings, and finding new reservoirs of old love."
He then joked: "Welcome to the family. Get ready for some real dysfunction! Kidding. I am kidding," before adding: "Jen, you are a gem. We love you so much!!!" followed by a red heart emoji.
At the incredible wedding, JLo wore a beautiful wedding gown by Ralph Lauren with a giant train flowing behind her as she married the Hollywood actor in front of A-List guests.
Ben looked dapper in a matching black and white tuxedo as he embraced his bride.
His sprawling estate, where the wedding took place, backs onto a lake and it is reported that the couple arrived by boat and the evening ended with a fireworks display.
TMZ reported: “[Jennifer wore a] magnificent white gown with a long, long train — approx 20 feet — as she and Ben got ready for the march down the aisle.”
The pair’s children were in attendance at the wedding, with Ben’s three kids from his marriage to Jennifer Garner; Violet, 16, Seraphina, 13, and Sam, 11, present.
Jennifer’s twins, Emme and Max, 14, that she shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony, were also there.
Meanwhile, A-List guests who watched Ben and Jen marry are said to include Ben's longtime friend Matt Damon as well George Clooney, Jane Fonda, Renee Zellweger, and Jimmy Kimmel.
