Chris Klein feels ''very grateful'' to have met his new wife Laina Rose Thyfault.

The 36-year-old actor, who married his long-term girlfriend at the Rainbow Ranch in Montana earlier this month, is over the moon following their nuptials.

The 'American Pie' star said: ''Laina looked beautiful. She holds herself with such grace. I am a very grateful man.''

The newlyweds decided to get married at the ranch in Big Sky Country even though they're both originally from Texas.

Chris explained to PEOPLE magazine: ''We fell in love with the area and the nature. Luckily, we have families who love to travel and also love nature, so it was the perfect spot for us.''

The pair's wedding reflected the beauty of the outdoors, according to their wedding planner Jennifer Horsley.

She said: ''Laina and Chris wanted to stay true to the nature of Montana and chose native grasses, sage and flowers in a soft colour palette to reflect the beauty of Montana.

The duo performed their first dance to George Strait's hit 'I Got a Car' during their ''big old country hoedown'' reception.

The Hollywood hunk - who was previously in a relationship with 'Batman Begins' actress Katie Holmes - first met Laina through a mutual friend and proposed to the blonde beauty in Venice Beach, California back in December 2014.
