I have never heard of remarrying after converting. I have heard of crowning as a blessing by the Church for the marriage, but marrying after one is already married sounds off
well, yes, I agree, and apparently so do the OCA guidelines. But other places have other sensibilities. The service books I've seen don't give any clues what these anniversary celebrations involving crowns are that have popped up a couple times, and the people who have had them haven't indicated (nor do they necessarily know) that they are done only for people without an Orthodox wedding (ie converted before marriage) or whether they are generically done for any couple who requests it for an anniversary.
EDIT: for those who have had some sort of anniversary crowning, could you elaborate, and also indicate what jurisdiction? My hunch is that you are Antiochian?
