On Sunday, Lopez, 52, revealed on her On the JLo newsletter that she and Affleck, 49, tied the knot at A Little White Chapel. She wrote, "So with the best witnesses you could ever imagine, a dress from an old movie and a jacket from Ben's closet, we read our own vows in the little chapel and gave one another the rings we'll wear for the rest of our lives," adding that the ceremony was "exactly what we wanted."

A source tells PEOPLE that the newlyweds "plan on having a bigger party so they can celebrate with family and friends." "They don't have a honeymoon planned yet. Jennifer says that every day with Ben is a honeymoon," the source says.

The pair announced their engagement in April after having rekindled their romance last year. As Lopez put it in her wedding newsletter, "It turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient."

"Stick around long enough and maybe you'll find the best moment of your life in a drive through in Las Vegas at 12:30 in the morning in the tunnel of love drive through, with your kids and the one you'll spend forever with," the Marry Me actress added. "Love is a great thing, maybe the best of things — and worth waiting for."
