Pierce Brosnan's wife Keely Shaye glows in sheer lace wedding gown in photos marking 23rd anniversary

Pierce Brosnan and Keely Shaye Brosnan are celebrating 23 years of marital bliss this weekend , flashing back to their beautiful Ireland wedding on August 4, 2001.

In honor of their big day, Keely, 60, took to social media with a few gorgeous throwback photos from their wedding day at Ballintubber Abbey in County Mayo, Ireland.

The snaps captured the joy of the special day and their wedding looks, with Pierce, 71, rocking a classically sleek and sharp black tuxedo and metallic silver tie, fit for James Bond .

Keely, on the other hand, wore two separate dresses for her nuptials . For the ceremony, she opted for a gorgeous white gown with a sheer lace top with a dracula collar, scalloped hems, and beautiful lace pattern work.

She paired the look with her jet black locks styled into waves and a veil, but switched things around for what seemed to be a post-ceremony style, ditching the sheer lace top for a figure-hugging white satin gown underneath.

Her hair was styled up and she also wore a tiara-like headband in one photo as she posed with her arm around her new husband, who also rocked a boutonniere.

Keely captioned the sweet throwback: "August 4th, 2001, Ashford Castle, County Mayo, Ireland. 'You are the finest, loveliest, tenderest person I have ever known.' FSF."

"Happy Anniversary my love @piercebrosnanofficial Here's to the next 23 years together. May they continue to be creative, adventurous, loving, inspiring, and joyful. Time [flies] on love's wings."
