Bollywood superstar and Quantico actress Priyanka Chopra and musician/actor Nick Jonas tied the knot! The couple became engaged on July 18, 2018, and had a lavish wedding over the weekend at the Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur, India.
The four-day celebration included two weddings: a Western ceremony and a Hindu ceremony. The weekend ended on Sunday with a Bidaai, a “bridal ritual where Chopra’s family blessed her new life with Jonas.”
Chopra told PEOPLE Magazine:
“I love that our wedding was a religious mash-up. We took beautiful traditions that we both grew up with and personalized them in a way that made sense for us. It’s been incredible to find the commonalities between our beliefs and figuring out how to blend them in a respectful and meaningful way.”
PEOPLE had exclusive rights to cover the wedding and featured the nuptials as this week’s cover story.

Jonas recalled what it was like watching his bride walk down the aisle:
“The emotions were running high during the ceremonies. You know you think your whole life about that moment. Honestly, I could not have imagined it would be as perfect as it was. It was highly emotional.”
They look like some prince and princess 😍😍😍
