Now here's a story with an interesting, ahem, ring to it.

Magic Mike star Matthew McConaughey and his gorgeous lady love, Camila Alves, tied the knot three weeks ago at a heartfelt ceremony in Texas, saying their I-dos in front of a gushing group of friends and family.

Camila's wedding ring is etched with a simple, timeless message: "XOXO."

You can ease up on The Da Vinci Code–ish sleuthing, though: The digits reportedly refer to his favorite Bible passage, which is taken from—what else?—the Gospel of Matthew.

Matthew 6:22 reads: "The eye is the lamp of the body; so then if your eye is clear, your whole body will be full of light."

That passage was also reportedly read at the wedding, and Matthew told People, "We chose verses from the Bible that moved us and speak to who we are as a couple."

We didn't need a Bible passage, though, to tell us that these happy, beaming newlyweds are indeed all full of light these days!
