Hugh Jackman has been in the spotlight for quite some time, but we can't get over how different he looks in these photos.

The Australian actor posted some rare snaps from his wedding day to celebrate his 25th anniversary with Deborra-Lee Furness.

In the caption, he said, "Being married to you Deb is as natural as breathing. From nearly the moment we met ... I knew our destiny was to be together. In our 25 years - our love has only grown deeper. The fun, excitement and adventure more exhilarating; the learning even greater. I’m forever grateful to share our love, our life - and, our family together. We’ve only just begun. Deb, I love you with all my heart!"

In the slideshow of photos, the pair are seen smiling, signing their wedding papers and kissing on their special day. Jackman looks more Harry Potter than Wolverine in a pair of some vintage glasses, while Furness's chic gown is giving us major First Wives Club vibes.

The two married back in 1996 at St. John's Church in Toorak, Victoria after hitting it off on the set of their TV series Correlli. After tying the knot in '96, the pair adopted two children, Oscar and Ava, in the early 2000s.

This is not the first time Jackman has shown his devotion to Furness on social media. Last year, the 52-year-old actor posted a message in honor of their 24th anniversary, to which his longtime frenemy Ryan Reynolds jokingly responded, "Hang in there, Deb."

We'll be waiting for any wisecracks from Reynolds in the comments section. Congrats to the happy couple!
