Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez are one step closer to tying the knot.
Lopez, 50, and Rodriguez, 44, celebrated their engagement with a dinner party on Friday alongside their children, family and famous friends.
The “Hustlers” star posted a video of the event — set to Journey’s “Faithfully” — that showed a table decorated with floating white candles, pink and white rose petals and gold and silver place settings.
The menu “In Honor of Jennifer and Alex” showed guests were offered a salad for their first course, pumpkin squash tortellini with brown butter and sage for their second course and entrée choices of potato crusted sea bass or roasted chicken.
After dinner, vocal coach Stevie Mackey and singer Sheléa performed Michael Jackson’s “I Just Can’t Stop Loving You.”
J.Lo’s children, Emme and Maximilian, and A-Rod’s children, Natasha and Ella, were all in attendance. Lopez also posted a video of her mother Guadalupe Rodríguez sitting across from the soon-to-be bride, who stunned in all white.
Actress Leah Remini, Lopez’s longtime manager Benny Medina and songwriter Carole Bayer Sager were also guests.
Sager, 72, shared on Instagram that she was responsible for throwing the party, and that the couple thanked her with eight giant bouquets of white roses.
Lopez and Rodriguez got engaged in March after dating for two years. The former MLB star proposed with an emerald cut ring estimated to cost more than $1 million.
They have not announced a wedding date, but Rodriguez hinted at a destination wedding on “Strahan, Sara and Keke.”
“It’s going to be a long flight,” he said.
