What is the true story behind the movie The Vow (2012)?

The Vow is based on the true story of Kim and Krickitt Carpenter. In 1993, just ten weeks after they got married, the couple suffered a serious car accident that left Krickitt with a traumatic brain injury. She had no memory of Kim, their marriage, or anything that had happened in the three years prior to the accident.

Despite the fact that Krickitt initially wanted a divorce and had no recollection of their relationship, Kim remained devoted to her and continued to try to rebuild their marriage. Over time, Krickitt regained some of her memories and eventually fell back in love with Kim. The couple renewed their wedding vows and have been happily married ever since.

While the movie takes some creative liberties and changes certain details, it remains a fairly accurate depiction of the real events.
