Joe Bradley<\/strong><\/a> and Maddi Reese<\/strong> took their hunka, hunka burning love to the next level with a full-blown Vegas wedding on Southern Hospitality<\/em><\/a> \u2014 but was it the real deal?<\/p>\n

After a long and somewhat dramatic weekend in Las Vegas<\/a>, Joe surprised his friends \u2014 and girlfriend Maddi<\/a> \u2014 with a trip to a wedding chapel on the Thursday, February 13, episode of the Bravo series.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is our love language doing something so spontaneous and out of the box,\u201d Joe told the cameras after keeping the impromptu wedding<\/a> to himself.<\/p>\n

Maddi revealed she loved \u201call this\u201d upon arrival at the venue and was excited to chat with the Elvis Presley<\/strong> impersonator. However, when she learned the ceremony was for her and Joe, she didn\u2019t believe it.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tSouthern Hospitality stars Joe Bradley and Maddi Reese gave Us a complete breakdown of their relationship timeline \u2014 before their shotgun wedding in Las Vegas. \u201cI guess around February we started hanging out,\u201d Joe exclusively told Us Weekly on December 18, while promoting season 3 of Southern Hospitality, which premieres on Thursday, January 2. \u201cI [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cWhat the f\u2014? I don\u2019t know what\u2019s going on. I have no idea,\u201d Maddi confessed before tracking down her groom and asking him, \u201cDid you plan this behind my back? Is this jinxing it?\u201d<\/p>\n

Joe admitted organizing the nuptials in secret but claimed it wouldn\u2019t jinx their eventual real wedding. \u201cIt\u2019s manifesting it<\/a>. It\u2019s for funsies,\u201d Joe insisted.<\/p>\n

After taking a beat, Maddi gave in. \u201cOK, fine f\u2014 it. I\u2019m down,\u201d she responded before going into the bridal suite to get all dolled up with the girls.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is basically a little commitment ceremony,\u201d Joe told the guys as he pulled them in to be his groomsmen.<\/p>\n

TJ Dinch<\/strong> later joked, \u201cIt\u2019s giving romantic with borderline stalker.\u201d Michols Pe\u00f1a<\/strong>, meanwhile, trolled Joe for his impulsiveness, saying, \u201cHe\u2019s obsessive. That\u2019s what it\u2019s giving.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite the group\u2019s reservations about Joe\u2019s bold move, Maddi put on a pink wig and veil and grabbed a plastic bouquet and proceeded to walk down the aisle.<\/p>\n

\u201cAre you really crying right now?\u201d she asked Joe, who was in fact shedding a few tears at the sight of his fake bride.<\/p>\n

After Fake Elvis said a few words, mainly quotes pulled from Presley\u2019s iconic love songs, he asked the bride and groom to exchange their own vows.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough sickness and in health, I will always love you. And I can\u2019t wait until our actual wedding one day. You make me so happy,\u201d Joe told Maddi. \u201cYou\u2019re the love of my life<\/a> and hopefully this is the second-best night of my life.\u201d (He teased that their real wedding would be the best day of his life.)<\/p>\n

Unlike her pretend husband, Maddi didn\u2019t have a speech prepared. However, she spoke from the heart saying, \u201cI love you to pieces. You\u2019re going to make me cry. I love you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maddi later told the cameras that after her past rocky relationships she hadn\u2019t really thought about marriage until now. \u201cI\u2019m looking into a glimpse of my future<\/a> right now and it doesn\u2019t look all that scary,\u201d she revealed.<\/p>\n

Joe, meanwhile, confirmed that he and Maddi are not legally married but said he plans to make it official someday.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven though me and Maddi started dating, like, four months ago, I think our love story goes way before that. Especially mine,\u201d he said, noting that had feelings for Maddi for three years. \u201cThis is not a real wedding, but it will be a real wedding one day soon. I just want to lock her down.\u201d<\/p>\n

Joe and Maddi exclusively told Us Weekly<\/em><\/a> in December 2024 that they began dating that April after hanging out exclusively for a few months to start the year.<\/p>\n
