Wuv, twoo wuv...it's still going strong, nearly 30 years later.

Cary Elwes posted on social media Saturday the sweetest 51st birthday tribute to Robin Wright, his co-star in the 1987 cult fantasy film The Princess Bride. The two play love interests Westley and Buttercup.

Elwes, 54, posted a photo of the two sitting in their costumes on their outdoor set, with her wearing the red dress she sported when her character gets kidnapped under a matching puffer coat. The actor sports an olive green parka over his black pirate's outfit, as well as a cap.

"Happy Birthday Robin," Elwes wrote. "You were a princess when we met, and now you're lovelier than any queen. Please join me in wishing her the very best. @robingwright."
