Jonas said that he wrote the band's song "Hesitate" for Turner and described it as "my vows before I wrote my vows."

"I'm seeing her walk down the aisle again every time I close my eyes," he said.
Joe Jonas says that performing one specific Jonas Brothers song that he wrote for wife Sophie Turner reminds him of their wedding day every time he sings it.
"It's like my vows before I wrote my vows," he said, adding, "It's my promise to Sophie. I can see in the audience when it's definitely those other people's songs. I see couples holding each other. I see somebody that song got them through something."
"Hesitate" is filled with heartfelt lyrics like: "I will take your pain / And put it on my heart" and "I thank the oceans for giving me you / You saved me once and now I'll save you too / I won't hesitate for you."

The 30-year-old singer said that performing the song, which appears on the Jonas Brothers' 2019 album "Happiness Begins," takes him back to the couple's milestone event.
"For me, it takes me to a whole different universe," Jonas said. "I'm seeing her walk down the aisle again every time I close my eyes."
He added: "When I sing Hesitate, I close my eyes for half the song because I'm singing it to her. I have to find my sense of home."
Jonas and Turner first met in 2016 after he direct messaged her and asked if she wanted to hang out in the UK. Turner previously told Elle magazine that they immediately clicked and "talked for hours," eventually becoming "inseparable."
