The Catholic wedding vows have never included the promise to obey. This addition to the wedding vows was added to the ceremony by King Henry 8 when he separated England from the Catholic Church and declared himself head of the Church of England. In the Catholic vows, both parties promise "to love and to cherish."

Does reconfirmation of wedding vows mean you have been married in the Catholic Church?

Yes it does. If, for example, you were married in a civil ceremony, the Church does not recognize that as sacramental matrimony and you must 'regularize' that marriage with the Church by confirming your wedding vows before a priest or a deacon. Some couples who have been validly married in the Church for many years will renew their wedding vows also, even though they have been validly married for years.
