After the wedding, the Bad Boys star and his wife decided to hold another wedding ceremony on their tenth anniversary and host a grand party.
Will Smith said,
“We had an OK wedding. We just came back from Tom and Katie‘s wedding. So, that made me realize we didn’t have a big wedding.
“They had a real wedding. It was just the most amazing, beautiful, wonderful, fairytale experience ever and I was just sitting beside Jada going, ‘Phew!’
“I hadn’t had too much success when we got married, so I couldn’t afford that. Ten years–we’re going to go back and do it again–renew the vows and all that.”
