But Walder Frey isn't going to be "GoT's" only host of a heck of a wedding. As viewers of the HBO drama will learn next season, King Joffery and his intended throw quite the bash too.

"It's going to be the wedding of the year, and as memorable in its own way as our wedding last season," scribe and executive producer George R.R. Martin recently told TV Guide.

Of course, fans of the series of books that "Game of Thrones" is based on already know all about the wedding-day drama to come.

"It's what the fans call the Purple Wedding, based on the color of the wine," which Martin went on to tease, "plays a big part."
