If the couple divorced and remarried, just add a second marriage - it's as simple as that. You "end" the first marriage and then add the second marriage with the new date. You can add a marriage note in the second marriage about the reason why they remarried. I don't think a note is necessary for the first marriage, unless you want to write something about that specifically and why they divorced.
I have a contemporary situation where the kids decided for some reason that they didn't want anyone to know about their real wedding date and wanted a fancier public wedding a year later and wanted the second one to be the known and celebrated date. I put the first wedding in and marked it as Private with a note that this was the registered marriage and they "publicized" and celebrated the second marriage, which, although was a real marriage, wasn't registered with the state.
