LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Jenny McCarthy and Donnie Wahlberg are celebrating a significant milestone in their relationship with a touch of nostalgia.

The intimate ceremony, held at the same venue where they were married a decade ago, was shared with fans on Instagram.
Wahlberg, 55, captured the moment with a heartfelt post on his Instagram Stories, writing, "Happy Anniversary! (yeah we did a thing — again)" alongside a photo of him gazing into McCarthy's eyes.
The couple, clearly savoring the moment, posed for photos near the water, evoking memories of their original wedding day.
Although they celebrated with a replica of their original wedding cake, McCarthy, 51, chose not to wear her original wedding dress from Bergdorf Goodman. Instead, the couple opted for matching midnight blue outfits, giving a modern touch to their special day.
In a joint Instagram post, Wahlberg shared a transformation video that began with the couple dressed in casual black sweats, then transitioned to their stunning anniversary attire.
He captioned the video, "Walking into our next ten years like! Happy 10th Anniversary Baby! So excited to share the rest of forever with you! One decade down, eternity to go!."

McCarthy also took to Instagram to express her love for Wahlberg. In a tribute video set to Etta James' classic 'At Last,' she reflected on their decade-long journey together.
"How do I feel like a newlywed after ten years of marriage? It’s easy when you’re married to Donnie Wahlberg," she wrote.
McCarthy described Wahlberg as "My calm in the storm," "My greatest adventure," and "My happily ever after," highlighting the deep bond they've shared over the years.
The couple’s tradition of renewing their vows annually has been a key part of their relationship. McCarthy explained the significance of this ritual during an appearance on 'Live with Kelly and Mark' in March, comparing it to renewing a driver’s license.
"You stand in front of each other… Life gets so busy, and we just want to remind each other of the vows and the path and the love we share," she said.

"And I'm telling you, it was one of the greatest ideas ever to go to therapy before there's a problem, to figure out how to have those conversations with each other."
