Social media users appeared to get a peek at the gift bags on Monday after fashion stylist Rob Zangardi shared a snapshot of them to his Instagram. In his carousel of photos, he also included a group photo of Lopez's glam squad, which includes hairstylist Chris Appleton, nail artist Tom Bachik, makeup artist Mary Phillips and stylist Mariel Haenn.
Zangardi's post also included a photo featuring several white heels from Lopez's footwear line, JLO. It's unclear if they're the ones Lopez rocked during her wedding weekend.

According to the insider, there was a "big focus on beautiful and floral spirit-free and spirited cocktails" with a collection of signature drinks offered throughout the wedding weekend.
The garnishes and glassware of the cocktails were inspired by the "light pastel and vibrant floral" color scheme of the nuptials.
Guests were treated to spectacular fireworks shows on both Friday and Saturday night. The couple said their vows during a ceremony on Saturday, which was officiated by life coach and podcast host Jay Shetty.
There was an all-white dress code for the attendees of the ceremony. Lopez walked down the aisle in a stunning custom Ralph Lauren gown with a flowing, ruffled train and cathedral-length, sheer veil. Affleck donned a white tuxedo with a black bowtie and black trousers.
