Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner Got Married in Vegas Before Their Destination Wedding
Sophie Turner is officially a Mrs. Jonas. The Game of Thrones actress married the boy band member in Las Vegas following an affectionate public outing at the Billboard Music Awards on Wednesday, May 1.
The news was revealed by Diplo, who took to Instagram to document the ceremony live. The style of the surprise wedding was very on-theme for Sin City: The event was officiated by an Elvis impersonator in the iconic A Little White Wedding Chapel.

And the pair truly embraced the concept of “when in Vegas.” For the impromptu wedding, Turner wore a white dress with a veil and Jonas opted for a gray suit. The Elvis impersonator, of course, conducted the ceremony in a replica of the late legend’s sunglasses and a fiery red look.
Dan + Shay performed at the end of the aisle, and yes–the Jonas Brothers were all there for the occasion. Both Nick Jonas and Kevin Jonas supported Joe for the last-minute ceremony.
Turner and Jonas applied for a marriage license earlier Wednesday, according to People.

Jonas and Turner will likely still have a formal wedding ceremony this summer with family members and friends, including Game of Thrones cast members like Maisie Williams, who is the maid of honor in Turner’s bridal party.
“I don’t know why she’s thinking about [what she’s wearing to my wedding],” Turner told Entertainment Tonight last month in response to Williams’s comment. “I’m giving her the bridesmaid dress! She’s my maid of honor! One of two.”
Jonas and Turner sent out save-the-dates last year, revealing their wedding destination of France in the summer of 2019.
“Well, we’re getting married this year,” Joe previously told James Corden on the Late Late Show in February. “Yeah, we’re going to have a summer wedding, which I’m looking forward to. It’s going to be a lot of fun.” Indeed, a guest leaked the couple’s fancy champagne case save-the-date, which showed the nuptials will be held in France.
The couple got engaged in October 2017.
