10 famous couples who reaffirmed their commitment with vow renewal ceremonies
In Hollywood, love often comes with a touch of grandeur, and for some A-listers, one wedding ceremony simply isn't enough. Many celebrity couples have chosen to renew their wedding vows to honor the tough times they faced together, to celebrate their milestones and to reaffirm their commitment to one another. Here’s a look at 10 couples who took the plunge a second time.
1. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West renewed their vows in 2019 to mark their fifth wedding anniversary. The ceremony took place shortly after the birth of their fourth child, Psalm West. Although the event was kept private, Kim shared some of her vows publicly on the screen, "You are my husband. You are my best friend. My biggest believer and my one true love.” Kim filed for divorce from Kanye in February 2021, ending a six-year marriage.
2. Beyonce and Jay-Z
Music royalty Beyonce and Jay-Z have renewed their vows not once, but twice. The couple, who first wed in 2008, celebrated their commitment again in 2014 during a family vacation in Corsica. They marked their 10th anniversary in 2018 with another vow renewal, sharing a glimpse of the event during Beyonce's On the Run II tour in the UK.
3. Chrissy Teigen and John Legend
Chrissy Teigen and John Legend revisited the romantic setting of their 2013 wedding at Villa Pizzo in Lake Como to renew their vows ten years later. Arriving by boat, the couple exchanged "I do's" once more, with a source describing the event as "breathtaking." "It was very romantic," a source told People. "They arrived by boat. It was breathtaking to see them still so happy together."
4. Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi
Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi surprised everyone when they renewed their vows during Portia’s 50th birthday celebration in January 2023.

Kris Jenner commented, “These two are couples goals and continue to amaze me with how cute they are together, a match made in heaven. Two peas in a pod. Their love and commitment to one another is amazing and it makes me so happy that they have each other to love and cherish and grow old with."
5. Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake
Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary with a vow renewal, though they nearly called it off. They had got married in Puglia, Italy, in 2012, and quietly swapped vows at the same place in the summer of 2022. Biel revealed during her appearance on 'Today with Hoda & Jenna', "It was very intimate. It was very small, a couple of our friends, and we literally barely put this thing together. We almost canceled it. We thought, 'This is silly, are we going to feel goofy doing this?' And actually it was so moving. I felt like, 'Wow, we're going to keep doing this. Look at us!' It felt really nice."
6. David and Victoria Beckham
David and Victoria Beckham, known for their long-lasting relationship, renewed their vows in 2006, seven years after their wedding. The renewal ceremony was a more intimate affair, attended by just six guests. While their 1999 wedding had made headlines for its opulence, the vow renewal was a much quieter and private event.
7. Bruce Willis and Emma Heming
On their 10th wedding anniversary in 2019, Bruce Willis and Emma Heming decided to renew their vows at the same location where they originally tied the knot. The vow renewal took place following Bruce Willis' diagnosis with frontotemporal dementia, after his earlier aphasia diagnosis. "Seize every opportunity to unite and celebrate with family and friends. Those are the moments and beautiful pockets of memories that you get to hold on to for a lifetime and we get to keep those memories safe and alive for the ones that might not be able to," Heming shared a video of the ceremony with these words.
8. Alec and Hilaria Baldwin
Alec Baldwin and his wife, Hilaria, renewed their vows in 2017 at St Patrick's Cathedral in New York City, five years after their initial wedding in Long Island. "I see what I have, and I'm very lucky," Alec shared before the ceremony, expressing his gratitude for their journey together.
9. Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne
After a tumultuous period that nearly ended their marriage, Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne renewed their vows in Las Vegas in 2017. The ceremony symbolized a fresh start for the couple, with Ozzy describing it as their "real wedding day," following years of challenges and growth together. "For me, this was actually our real wedding day. This is the one that I will remember. Sharon and I have been through so much, and this honestly feels like a new beginning," Ozzy told Hello! Magazine.
10. Jenny McCarthy and Donnie Wahlberg
Jenny McCarthy and Donnie Wahlberg got married in 2014 and for them, vow renewal is an annual tradition in their relationship. The couple celebrated their seventh wedding anniversary in 2021 with an intimate vow renewal ceremony at their backyard.
