Sophie Turner — also known as [Sansa Stark](http://time.com/5053939/game-of-thrones-sophie-turner-sansa-stark-season-8-fate/) — won’t be tying the knot with fiancé Joe Jonas until after the next season of[ _Game of Thrones_ has wrapped](http://time.com/5088555/game-of-thrones-season-8-premiere-date-2/). But she’s already selected her bridesmaids, and naturally her _Thrones_ costar and fellow Stark [Maisie Williams](http://time.com/5095394/game-of-thrones-maisie-williams-coraline-jones/) is on her list.

In an interview with [_Radio Times_](http://www.radiotimes.com/news/tv/2018-01-21/maisie-williams-reveals-she-is-going-to-be-sophie-turners-bridesmaid/), Williams let slip that her friend Turner had already popped the bridal party question. “I’ve already got it,” she noted about her role as a bridesmaid. As for Turner’s plans, she had this to say: “We’re waiting until this season’s done until we get into any of that, but I think she’s already let her little heart wander and imagine.”

The [DNCE singer](http://time.com/4909946/bonnie-tyler-total-eclipse/) and Turner have [been engaged](http://time.com/4983806/sophie-turner-joe-jonas-relationship-timeline/) since October after appearing to see each other for about a year, and held their engagement party in the fall. Williams and Turner, meanwhile, [have been pals](http://time.com/4801073/maisie-williams-sophie-turner-game-of-thrones/) since the hit HBO drama started filming back in 2011, appearing on red carpets together all the time — and supporting each other on social media. The final season of the mega-series won’t air until 2019, bringing a close to one of the [biggest shows on TV](http://time.com/5035335/kit-harington-game-of-thrones-gupowder/) and a career-defining experience for both of the young actresses. In the meantime, Williams is promoting the animated movie _Early Man_ and will appear in the upcoming X-Men offshoot [_New Mutants_](http://time.com/4853722/comic-con-2017-movies-television/item//), while Turner will star in another X-Men installment, [_Dark Phoenix._](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt6565702/?ref%5F=nm%5Fflmg%5Fact%5F1)
