Joe Jonas capped off a night performing with his brothers at the Billboard Music Awards by saying “I do” to “Game of Thrones” star Sophie Turner._  by [Raisa Bruner](https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/)  ## Raisa Bruner Jul 1, 2019 3:16 PM UTC  by [Raisa Bruner](https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/)  ## Raisa Bruner Jul 1, 2019 3:16 PM UTC _Game of Thrones_ star [Sophie Turner](https://time.com/5606516/sophie-turner-bachelorette-party/) and [Jonas Brothers](https://time.com/5601989/jonas-brothers-comeback-album/) singer [Joe Jonas](https://time.com/5437599/joe-jonas-halloween-costume-sansa-stark/) officially tied the knot in France over the weekend at a chateau, but the celebrity pair was almost overshadowed at their own wedding by the presence of a dog that stole the show. The dog appeared as one of Jonas’s groomsmen in photos from the big day, and even had a special dog-sized tuxedo outfit to keep him matching the rest of the squad. Joe kept a casual hold of the pup’s leash in the group photos. Some have [identified him](https://www.instyle.com/news/sophie-turner-joe-jonas-dog-porky-basquiat-second-wedding) as Porky Basquiat, the pair’s own Alaskan Klee Klai, which they adopted in 2017. Turner and Jonas, who have been dating since 2016, had an impromptu [Las Vegas wedding](https://time.com/5581617/joe-jonas-and-sophie-turner-married/) in May as well. But that one did not feature this canine superstar. This time, the whole crew turned out at the chateau in [Sarrians, France](https://www.elle.com/culture/celebrities/a28206011/sophie-turner-joe-jonas-wedding-venue-chateau-de-tourreau-photos/), including fellow actors [Maisie Williams](https://time.com/5602291/game-of-thrones-sophie-turner-maisie-williams-irl/) and [Priyanka Chopra,](https://time.com/5572816/priyanka-chopra-met-gala-2019/) who also happens to be Nick Jonas’s wife. The presence of the dog seems particularly fitting for this wedding, given that Turner is famous for playing Sansa Stark in blockbuster show _Thrones_. The Stark family are associated with wolves, and Turner even [has a tattoo](https://time.com/5592744/game-of-thrones-sophie-turner-tattoo-spoiler/) to commemorate her time on the show that reads “The pack survives” and has an image of a direwolf, the sigil of her house. > [](https://twitter.com/jessmcguire/status/1145120595039772672) > [](https://twitter.com/livsingh95/status/1145118165426462720) > [](https://twitter.com/matheamt/status/1145081892821069824) Turner recently starred in the X-Men movie [_Dark Phoenix,_](https://time.com/5601749/dark-phoenix-x-men-the-last-stand-comparison/) while Jonas reunited with his brothers to release their new album[ _Happiness Begins_](https://time.com/5601989/jonas-brothers-comeback-album/). ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5618262/sophie-turner-joe-jonas-wedding-dog/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5618262/sophie-turner-joe-jonas-wedding-dog/"},"headline":"No One Shined Brighter at Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas’s Wedding Than This Fancy Dog","datePublished":"2019-07-01T15:16:19.000Z","dateModified":"2026-08-04T08:02:46.596Z","description":"His name is Porky Basquiat","url":"https://time.com/5618262/sophie-turner-joe-jonas-wedding-dog/","keywords":["Newsfeed","animals","celebrities","onetime"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Raisa Bruner","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5618262/sophie-turner-joe-jonas-wedding-dog/","name":"No One Shined Brighter at Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas’s Wedding Than This Fancy Dog"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Joe Jonas Married Sophie Turner in Vegas After Jonas Brothers' BBMAs Performance","description":"Joe Jonas capped off a night performing with his brothers at the Billboard Music Awards by saying “I do” to “Game of Thrones” star Sophie Turner.","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/74GZ1pPO/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2019-05-02T16:36:00.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/74GZ1pPO.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/5618262/sophie-turner-joe-jonas-wedding-dog/","duration":"PT48S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/5618262/sophie-turner-joe-jonas-wedding-dog/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
