āOut of the corner of my eye, this sort of aqua-green figure went floating across the frame about 20 feet in front of me,ā McConaughey toldĀ PeopleĀ in 2016. āMy eye went up and I remember what came out of my mouth. I didnāt say, āWho is that?ā I went, āWhat is that?’ā
āAs l was trying to get thatās attention across the room, I went in my head, āThis is not the kind of woman you call over across the room, McConaughey. Get your ass out of your chair and go get her.ā Which I did,ā he recalled.

The pair ultimately tied the knot at their home in Austin, Texas in June 2012. Their kids Levi and and Vida served as ring bearer and flower girl, respectively.
Alves told the outlet that the kids seemed āto understand what we are doing on a spiritual level.ā
āWe decided to embrace the ritual of marriage as an opportunity and adventure weāll take together,ā McConaughey added.
Prior to their move to Texas a decade ago, the family lived in Malibu, Calif. for quite some time.

āWe were living a happy life in Malibu,ā AlvesĀ told Southern Living. āWe had a beautiful house that weād built together and put a lot of love and care into. We were raising our kids there. I was growing everything in the yard. I had bees making honey.ā
Alves said that aĀ family emergency prompted them to take a tripĀ to Austin, during which she noticed that her famous husband appeared lighter in Texas than he did in the Golden State.
