Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas had a surprise Vegas wedding
Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas headed from the Billboard Music Awards on Wednesday night to a surprise Las Vegas wedding.
Jonas and Turner were married in a ceremony led by an Elvis impersonator, parts of which were streamed on Instagram by Diplo, CNN reports. "Gonna hit this wedding real quick," he posted on one video.
The two announced their engagement in 2017, about a year after they began dating. Jonas had previously teased a summer wedding, which was to be held in France. Turner had also said her Game of Thrones co-star Maisie Williams would be her maid of honor.

Another one of Diplo's videos showed country music duo Dan + Shay performing while Nick and Kevin Jonas stood at Joe's side, BuzzFeed reports. The Jonas Brothers had performed at the Billboard Music Awards earlier after announcing their first tour in almost a decade.
Instead of rings, E! reports Jonas and Turner exchanged Ring Pops at the ceremony. Clearly, compared to Sansa Stark's own wedding, this was a significant step up.
