The Game of Thrones cast will finally get a wedding that (hopefully) doesn't end in bloodshed.

IndieWire reports that, on the UK's Jonathan Ross Show, Kit Harrington revealed that he and fiancé/wildling badass Rose Leslie will tie the knot during the filming period of Game Of Thrones' final season.

And, since Jon Snow wants all his Westeros/Essos friends and foes to attend the wedding, the show will halt production for a day. That's right, when the King of the North makes a request, Lord Benioff and Lord Weiss listen up.

When Harrington made the request to pause production so his cast mates could attend his wedding, he blamed his nuptials on the producers themselves — for pairing him on screen with Rose Lesie in the first place.

“I rang [the producer] up and I said, ‘I’m getting married and it’s your fault actually,’” Harrington said.

Game of Thrones has already begun filming its final season. But the production is reported to last until next summer. So that means the Ygritte-Snow nuptials could be a fall wedding... or winter... or spring.

Hopefully the happy couple doesn't have to wait as long to make it official as Game of Thrones fans have to wait for Season 8 — which likely will not premiere until 2019. But hey, true love is worth the wait.
