Kevin Smith describes Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez's wedding: 'Inspiring' Video

After attending Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s wedding, director Kevin Smith was convinced that true love does exist. 

"The wedding as presented, just absolutely beautiful," Smith told Fox News Digital exclusively at the "Clerks III" movie premiere. 

"Watching two people who worked so hard to get to that moment close the circle and how clearly in love that they are with one another was inspiring," the "Clerks III" director remarked.
