Lopez and Affleck were spotted as they arrived at Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica, California, in celebration of their wedding anniversary on July 16. That week, the Mother star teased her new song “Midnight Trip to Vegas” in an Instagram post and revealed the song’s lyrics in her newsletter. The track revisits the couple’s 2022 Las Vegas wedding.

“Then you whispered in my ear / Said let’s get out of here / We can disappear tonight,” Lopez sings in the song. “What about a / Midnight trip to Vegas / Just me and you baby / Throw the kids in the back / Of the pink Cadillac / And us in the bathroom changing.” 

Lopez and Affleck did not appear to make a major celebration over Affleck’s birthday last year, which came shortly after their nuptials. Back in 2021, a source told PEOPLE that the couple shared a “quiet celebration” with Lopez’s now 15-year-old twins Max and Emme to celebrate Affleck’s 49th birthday.
