Ben Affleck congratulates Timberlake and Biel

Ben Affleck has congratulated Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake on their recent wedding.

The pair wed in Italy on Friday (19.10.12) and Ben thinks his 'Runner, Runner' co-star Justin and Jessica, who is close pals with his wife Jennifer Garner, make a great couple.

He told E! News: ''I'm very excited for him. He's a terrific guy. He's a really good actor. There's nothing that guy can't do.

''Jess is great. I'm happy for them.''

Meanwhile, Justin's former NSync bandmates Lance Bass, JC Chasez, Chris Kirkpatrick and Joey Fatone are said to be furious they were left off the guestlist.

A source told the New York Post's Page Six: ''The band were not invited and are pretty upset about it. But the wedding guests were mainly close family and friends.''

On Thursday (18.10.12), the bride and groom - who briefly split last year - hosted a party for guests, were they dined on fresh-made cheese, local olives and wine, while sitting around open fires.

The night before (17.10.12), the group celebrated at a beach where they watched fireworks and listened to live music.

Following the nuptials, Justin and Jessica released a statement confirming their marriage and saying what a great time they had.

They said: ''It's great to be married, the ceremony was beautiful and it was so special to be surrounded by our family and friends.''
