90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way stars Sarper Güven and Shekinah Garner have finally wed! And they decided to switch up the traditional wedding ceremony to get married in bed. They had a bedding ceremony!
The couple met on a dating site during Season 5 of the show while vacationing in Turkey. Originally Shekinah was supposed to move to Turkey. However, this didn’t happen and by the beginning of Season 6, it was revealed that she had to return to the U.S. for work. Sarper followed her on a K1 visa.

But that wasn’t the end of the drama. As a returning couple on 90 Day Fiancé Season 11, fans watched as they continued to argue. Despite having proposed in Season 6 of The Other Way, the couple still had a lot of issues to resolve before saying “I Do.”
Now we know they made it through. At least to the wedding, or rather bedding portion of the program. The couple decided on having a wedding in bed and honestly, it’s really so on brand. The reality duo caught up with TMZ and shared some of the details of their non-traditional bedding ceremony.
“We love being in bed, honestly,” Shekinah “We spend a lot of time in bed. We don’t even have a dining room table, we eat all our meals in bed, we watch a lot of shows.” She paused and then added, “We were really afraid of marriage actually so it made it a little less scary.”
Sarper added that nothing about their relationship was normal so it was expected that their wedding wouldn’t be normal or traditional either.
The couple also shared that their family was shocked but not surprised when they heard. “They were shocked,” Shekinah revealed. “But they also weren’t that surprised because they know us. They know that we’re going to do something unconventional.”
When asked if they would recommend a “bedding wedding” to other couples, Shekinah was quick to answer, “No! It’s our thing!” This made Sarper laugh as he joked, “We are selfish son of a b*tches.”
The pair’s ceremony marks the 90th wedding in the 90 Day Fiancé history.
90 Day Fiancé Season 11 is currently available to stream on Discovery +.
