This weekend, Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas welcomed guests to their official wedding venue and it's a lot fancier than the Little White Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas.
Turner and Jonas held their wedding reception at the Château de Tourreau in Sarrians, France on Saturday. Some fans might recognize the gorgeous 18th-century mansion because these two aren't the only celebs who have stayed there. On the current season on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Kyle Richards coordinated a trip to the South of France with her castmates, and the women stayed inside the same walls. You may recall Erika Girardi remarking, "I've never felt so rich in all my life," as the women pulled up to the Provence palace.

There weren't enough housewives to fill up all of Château de Tourreau's nine bedrooms on that trip. However, based on the crowd of family and friends who first showed up at the home to celebrate Sophie and Joe on Thursday, it seems it got plenty of use during the wedding weekend. With the spot's swimming pool, indoor squash court and fitness room, a tennis, basketball, and volleyball court, and access to wine tastings and tours, guests may have had even more fun than they did at Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra's wedding festivities — not that it's a competition.
The couple's marriage ceremony reportedly took place outside of the château's 20-acres, which is too bad since the there does happen to be a chapel on the grounds that was built way back in 1612. That could have been an ideal place for Sophie to channel Sansa vibes in a glorious gown. And, if they were looking for a less traditional ceremony, they could have said "I do" in the château's orchard or in its English garden complete with a fountain at the center.
Though Château de Tourreau has been occupied by many a TV and pop star, it's actually available for anyone to rent. In fact, it's listed on Airbnb for $4,774 a night. That's a lot, but since the property sleeps 15 guests, it's not totally out of the question for those of us who aren't making HBO or even Bravo-sized bucks.
