Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner marries Joe Jonas in shock Vegas wedding

Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner and singer Joe Jonas have tied the knot in a surprise Las Vegas ceremony which cost $600 and was officiated by an Elvis Presley impersonator.

The pair were in Vegas on Wednesday for the Billboard Music Awards but a few hours later footage from DJ Diplo’s Instagram Stories showed them exchanging vows reportedly at the A Little White Chapel where the likes of Britney Spears, Eva Longoria and Bruce Willis and Demi Moore have wed.

In the clips, Joe, 29, is seen waiting at the altar before Sophie, 23, enters and walks down the aisle in a white veil and jumpsuit and gold Gucci mules.

Sophie, who plays Sansa, the Lady of Winterfell in Game of Thrones, is shown repeating the words: ‘I thee wed.... and I love you... and I thank God He gave me you.’

Then the couple, at Elvis’s direction, repeated to each other in unison: ‘I promise you, I will never leave you. I will love and trust you all the days of my life.’

Elvis then instructed Sophie to kiss the ring, but as it was a candy ring, she decided to give it a big lick.

Country stars Dan and Shay played their hit Speechless during the ceremony.

Jonas Brother Joe and Game of Thrones star Sophie got engaged in 2017 after more than a year together.

They were first pictured as a couple at the MTV EMAs in 2016.

Sophie briefly discussed how she and Joe first got together in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar.

She said: “We had a lot of mutual friends, and they’d been trying to introduce us for a long time. We were following each other on Instagram and he direct-messaged me one fine day, out of the blue.”

The couple’s quickie wedding is in stark contrast to the four-day extravaganza in India last December when Joe’s brother Nick, 26, tied the knot with Priyanka Chopra, 36.

But Sophie and Joe may still have a lavish blessing.

Line of Duty's Martin Compston set to star in new drama based on Val McDermid idea  

They originally said they’d been planning to get married in France this summer - with Sophie telling Harpers Bazaar they planned to keep it “an intimate thing”.

For Sophie it’s a happy real life wedding after two mis-matched oens in Game of Thrones to Tyrion Lannister and Ramsay Bolton.

She’d previously revealed that her Game of Thrones co-star - and real life best friend - Maisie Williams would be her maid of honour. It wasn’t clear if Maisie was at the ceremony on Wednesday.

As long as it’s not a Game of Thrones-style Red Wedding everyone will be happy.
