Ben and Jen Wedding Plans

"Extra" has learned the bride has chosen yellow and white roses, famed jeweler Harry Winston created their gold wedding bands, and the 200 guests will be bussed to the reception.

Us Magazine's Ken Baker says the Santa Barbara soirée will be spectacular. It will begin with a Saturday night barbeque. The couple’s first dance will take place on a transparent floor being built over a swimming pool. And the famous guests, originally invited by phone, will receive formal invitations revealing the location three days before the event.

Baker believes he already knows where the black tie wedding and reception will take place. He says, "It’s a $29 million estate. It’s a sprawling hillside location and it’s called Soto El Monte. Jennifer Lopez has spent the last two weeks obsessing over every detail."

Owners of Dream Locations, Ronnie Haran-Mellen and partner Jennifer Goei, have taken a vow of silence, refusing to say where or even if they will provide the locale. But they do specialize in renting luxury Santa Barbara homes for events, like a $25 million estate that rents for $25,000 a day.

So where will Ben and Jen's A-list guests spend the weekend? One option is the San Ysidro Ranch. It’s the perfect celebrity getaway with 500 acres of seclusion and privacy.

Inside the ranch is the very room where JFK and Jackie Kennedy honeymooned. Other wedding preparations detailed in Us Magazine are that Jen will use her famed hairdresser Oribe and her wedding party will get their eyebrows tweezed by eye master Anastasia.

But saying "I do" may be just the beginning of this romantic story. The word is that Jen wants a family. And with Mrs. Affleck free from any projects for the next year, the timing couldn’t be better.
