Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas will have a SECOND wedding
First Vegas, next... France
Words by Maisie Bovingdon
Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas tied the knot in a surprise wedding ceremony in Las Vegas on Wednesday night, just moments after the Jonas Brothers performed at the Billboard Music Awards.
The couple - who met in 2016 and got engaged one year later - exchanged vows at Chapel L’Amour inside A Little White Wedding Chapel, which was officiated by an Elvis Presley impersonator.
While some fans want to know where to buy the Game of Thrones star's Gucci shoes, others are questioning if there will be another wedding ceremony.
It has been reported the couple will tie the knot again in France, but they had to get married in America first to legalise their vows.
A source told PEOPLE: 'They had to get married in the States to make it legal, but the wedding is still in Europe.'
Joe, 29, previously revealed he and Sophie were planning to tie the knot in France, and knew to stock up on the alcohol after Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra's wedding.

However, a French religious ceremony for international couples is not legally binding, unless they have resided in the country for over 30 days, as stated in the U.S. Embassy & Consulates in France documentation.
It reads: 'In France a religious ceremony does not constitute a legal marriage.'
