The ceremony took place outdoors as the sun set, which only enhanced the romantic moment.
Emma wore a white dress with one shoulder sleeve.
Bruce matched her in a white button-up shirt and white pants. He added a beige hat and beige sandals for style.
Their daughters, Mabel Ray and Evelyn Penn, served as flower girls, while Bruce’s daughters with ex Demi, Rumer and Scout formed the band.
It all culminated in another kiss, followed by a smiling Bruce happily tossing his hat in the air.
Emma explained in the emotional caption, “On our 10th wedding anniversary, we decided to renew our vows in the same place we said ‘yes’ in 2009.
“I’m so glad we did.”
She continued, adding: “Seize every opportunity to unite and celebrate with family and friends. Those are the moments and beautiful pockets of memories to hold onto for a lifetime. And may we keep those memories safe and alive for those who may not be able to.”
Among her, fans shared their love.
“With tears streaming down my cheeks, I thank you for sharing this beautiful video and your ongoing love story,” one person commented.
“I’m roaring,” another added, while a third repeated, “I just have no words. The grief must be so heavy. It breaks my heart.”
As a fourth said, “If only everyone could feel such love. Thank you for sharing your joy with us. I hope there are many more moments to celebrate as you navigate this new world.”
The couple married on March 21, 2009 in Turks and Caicos and the wedding was attended by Bruce’s daughters and ex-wife.
The model and her husband had a civil ceremony in Beverly Hills six days later.
FLOWER POWER
Earlier in the day, Emma shared a photo of a beautiful bouquet of flowers she received, recalling how she told her friend Juliya that her anniversary was coming.
“While later that day I got a text from my girlfriend saying she had left ‘something’ for me at my door. It was this sweet bouquet of flowers (pictured) with a note that said Happy Anniversary, among other things,” she wrote in the caption.
“It got me thinking about how difficult these kinds of ‘special occasions’ can be for caregivers. Where normally our person would acknowledge the event, now their changing brain just can’t. And it is.
“So my point is this. If you know someone who cares for someone else, don’t ask what you can do, just do it. This random act of kindness will honestly stay with me for a long time,” she wrote.
BIRTHDAY BASS
It was a week of celebration, because on Sunday Bruce celebrated his 68th birthday with his whole family together.
Emma, Demi and Bruce’s children Rumer, Scout and Tallulah were all present at the party, along with a few other guests.
In the video, everyone – including the actor – sang Happy Birthday.
Bruce appeared in good spirits, sang at least a few words to the song, chatted with revelers, and blew out the candles on his cake.
While everyone sang, he smiled, talked and gestured with his hands.
At one point he seemed to stumble a bit, perhaps just losing his footing.
He stumbled a little again after making a great effort to blow out the few candles in the cake.
The whole family, including Bruce, laughed at the light-hearted moment.
After the song ended, the group yelled, “Hip hip hooray.”
Bruce seemed to be making a lasso motion with his hands, even shouting “hurray” at one point.
He was hugged and kissed by some of the guests in attendance.
Demi captioned the post, “Happy Birthday BW! So glad we got to celebrate you today. I love you and love our family. Thank you to everyone for the love and warm wishes – we all feel them.”
And Emma says there are many more milestones and parties to come.
Their daughter Mabel will soon be celebrating her eleventh birthday, Evelyn will be nine and they are eagerly awaiting the birth of Demi and Bruce’s first grandchild.
Emma ended by saying they have “so many things to be thankful for”.
