Marc Anthony's Wife Renew Vows

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (Latinmusic magazine) - Singer Marc Anthony and former Miss Universe Dayanara Torres renewed their wedding vows, five months after announcing their separation.

The couple emerged Saturday from the grand Cathedral of San Juan holding hands and kissing as bridesmaids in scarlet gowns showered them with white rose petals.

Hundreds of well-wishers lined the narrow cobblestone streets outside the cathedral. The couple responded with one more kiss before being whisked away in a black limousine.

A private reception followed in the courtyard of a colonial-era garrison located a short distance from the cathedral. The lavish ceremony was attended by other well-known artists, politicians and sports figures.

Although they announced a split in July, the couple never legally filed for separation. Torres has described the church wedding as "a new beginning."

Anthony, a Grammy-winning singer born in New York to Puerto Rican parents, married Torres in a Las Vegas civil ceremony on May 10, 2000.
"The plan was always to do the church wedding," said Jennifer Neiman, Anthony's publicist. "It was one of those things that they always intended to do and they never found the time to do."
