already married, their ceremony will officially take place at the actor’s longtime Georgia home, described as “a remarkable re-creation of a Southern antebellum Greek Revival plantation home.” And my, how things have come full circle. Affleck, 50, first purchased the sprawling 87-acre Riceboro estate in 2003 for $7.11 million — the same time he was dating Jennifer Lopez. It was reported at the time the two were even planning to build a wedding chapel on the property.
But they ended their first engagement a year later, in 2004, and it never came into fruition. Comprised of three different structures, the compound overlooks the North Newport River and Hampton Island. The Big House is a 6,000-square-foot two-story main residence that features a veranda and overlooks the river.
Made up of four bedrooms and five bathrooms, features include pine floors, arched fireplaces and 15-foot-high ceilings. Along the path, behind the veranda, is the Summer Cottage, which comes screened-in for those steamy summer nights. It boasts a fireplace, exposed brick, pitched ceilings and a metal roof.
The final structure is known as the Oyster House, which spans a massive 10,000 square feet and comes with three primary suites and five other bedrooms with bunk beds “salvaged from marine vessels,” a previous listing says. A camp-style house, this is likely where the reception will take place. Affleck put the home on the market in 2018 for $8.9 million, but later removed the listing amid the 2020 pandemic.
