J-Lo and Marc Anthony Renew Vows…Would You?

So did you read that Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony renewed their marriage  vows yesterday in Vegas? They have been married for a whole four years.  Thy were in Las Vegas to celebrate his 40th birthday and decided to recommit to each other on the spur of the moment.  They renewed their vows at 3 :15 a.m. in the Caesars Palace’s Forum Tower Penthouse.

I think it is cool that they renewed their vows, really.  it just seems funny to me to have done it so soon.  But I think marriage in Hollywood time and marriage in real world time is like the difference between dog age and human age..so figuring it like that they have been married 28 years…sort of.

I dropped every hint in the book to Marc Audet when our 15th anniversary was coming up, that I wanted to renew our vows.  I could still fit in (the sacred)  size 6 outfit back then (moment of silence please)…and I was sewing a lot.  I had a fantasy of walking down the aisle looking fabulous in a designer wedding dress…and him being absolutely stunned at my beauty.

He. Did. Not. Get. It.

Remember, he doesn’t read between the lines.  I think I even said, “Wouldn’t it be cool to renew our vows for our anniversary?”

Apparently I was too vague.

I don’t remember what we did, but I am pretty sure that it did not include aisles, designer dresses or him being rendered speechless by my delicious self.

I think it is a good idea to renew vows, especially after there has been a near divorce or separation…or some other   significant event.  It gives the couple a chance to begin new and fresh symbolically.

I don’t really feel a need to renew them now.  My reasons for wanting to do it are gone (designer dresses, size 6, completely hot self) and they weren’t great reasons to begin with.

 Would you renew your vows?
