Julia Roberts usually keeps her romantic life private, only treating us to photos of her husband, Daniel Moder, on rare occasions.

But today must be our lucky day, because the Valentine's Day actress shared a selfie she took with her husband in honor of their anniversary. Roberts uploaded a snap of her and Moder wrapped in a blanket on the beach, with a caption that said: “19 years ♥♥ Just getting started! #conwings.”

In the pic, Roberts is seen wearing a tropical button-up and an orange hat embroidered with a bird, while her husband looks like he just hopped out of the water. Celebrity friends sent their well-wishes to the couple—like Rita Wilson, who said, “Happy happy anniversary! Gotta celebrate big on 20th!”

It's become a tradition for Roberts to share an intimate pic of Moder on their anniversary. Last July, the actress posted a different selfie, where she was seen kissing Moder's cheek with the caption: “18 years #heckyes.”

The couple first met back in 2000 on the set of the movie The Mexican. Moder worked as an assistant cameraman, while Roberts starred in the film. After hitting it off, they tied the knot in 2002.

Now, 19 years later, the couple are happily married and living together in Malibu. They share three children together: twins Hazel Patricia and Phinnaeus Walter (16), as well as their younger son, Henry Daniel (14).

In addition to Roberts's post, Moder also shared a special tribute to their long-lasting romance. The cinematographer posted a throwback and said, “Today we start our 20th year of marriage. This photo was on a dusty road before that big idea … just holding on to this beautiful girl one day at a time. One epic day at a time.”

Congrats to the happy couple!
