According to E! Online, George Clooney’s wedding to Amal Amaluddin was the place to be for Hollywood. So, why were Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner not there? Garner recently cleared the air on the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. In fact, she recounted a story involving meeting George Clooney for the first time right after getting rid of lice in her hair. She joked, “So anyway, people keep asking why we weren’t at George’s wedding and we were both ‘working,’ but I think he didn’t want Licey there.”
