Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas look passionate for each other in two new Vogue photos released after their splashy wedding in India
Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas wed this weekend.
And to celebrate their union, the two posed for Vogue's new January 2019 cover.
On Monday two new images of the power couple from the shoot by Annie Liebovitz were shared. The images evoked Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights.

Priyanka, 36, went barefoot in a simple off white gown with the straps sliding off her shoulders as she lays across her man's lap on a heath.
In another photo, the couple cuddle up on their feet, with Priyanka tugging at the neckline of Nick's tee while he slips a hand inside the back of her dress.
They held their wedding functions at the sumptuous Umaid Bhawan palace in Jodhpur over the weekend, beginning on Friday with a Christian service officiated by Nick's pastor father Paul Jonas and ending Sunday with a Hindu ceremony
The couple arrived in New Delhi Monday for their Tuesday reception in the capital, where their guest list is rumored to include Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Priyanka was wearing her choora - her ceremonial bangles - as well as her sindhoor, a streak of vermilion along the part in her hair indicating she is a married woman.

Photos and videos have been steadily going public from their Vogue feature, including a clip of Nick serenading Priyanka with his 2016 song Close.
In their joint Vogue profile, Nick recalls sliding into Priyanka's DMs in September 2016 to ask her out. She wrote: ‘My team can read this. Why don’t you just text me.'
Their texts were 'friendly with an eye toward flirtation' for months until the next year's Vanity Fair Oscars party, where he says he was so overcome by the sight of her that he went down 'on one knee - this is in front of a bunch of people - and I say: "You’re real. Where have you been all my life?" Like, loud.'
They met for a drink at Manhattan's swank Carlyle Hotel and she invited him up to her apartment - innocently, since her mother Madhu was there.

Still, she was slightly miffed that all she got out of him was a 'back pat,' though as Nick argued: 'Your mom was in the house! I thought it was a respectful first night.'
Shortly thereafter, they walked the 2017 Met Gala for Ralph Lauren - the designer Priyanka wore for her Christian wedding Friday, PinkVilla reports.
After the 'back pat' date, a year elapsed before they finally wound up in each other's company again, with the occasion being the 2018 Met Gala this May.
Their relationship from that point moved rapidly into a proposal this July on a trip to Crete that was ostensibly for Priyanka's birthday.

'I got down on one knee, again, and I said: Will you make me the happiest man in the world and marry me? No joke - she took about 45 seconds. Forty-five seconds of silence,' Nick told Vogue, adding that he eventually told Priyanka: 'I’m going to put this ring on your finger now unless you have any objections.'
Nick shut down a Tiffany's to buy her ring, after which Priyanka had her bridal shower at the Blue Box Cafe at the flagship Tiffany & Co. on New York's Fifth Avenue.
The couple's Christian nuptials played host to an 18-foot cake made by personal chefs the groom brought over from Kuwait and Dubai, according to Filmfare.
Priyanka and Nick's Hindu festivities reportedly featured a 40-foot floral canopy called a mandap, and the bride and groom took an elephant ride around the venue.

The groom had a Baaraat - a procession in which the groom arrives at his wedding on a horse, surrounded by his dancing loved ones and a live band.
According to the Bombay Times, Priyanka wore an outfit by the highly regarded designer Sabyasachi Mukherji, who was glimpsed arriving in Jodhpur on Friday.
The Hindu marriage was sealed with a ceremony called Saath Phere, in which the bride and groom walk around a fire seven times to represent seven marital vows.

History: Built during the British Raj for the ruling family of Jodhpur, Umaid Bhawan's name means 'Umaid's Mansion,' a nod to Umaid Singh, the Maharajah of Jodhpur from 1918 to 1947
Jose Villa, whose credits include Tamera Mowry's nuptials and those of Instagram founder Kevin Systrom, snapped Priyanka's wedding pictures and revealed on his Insta Stories that they will appear in an unnamed magazine on an unspecified date.
Built during the British Raj for the ruling family of the princely state of Jodhpur, Umaid Bhawan's name means 'Umaid's Mansion,' a nod to Umaid Singh, who was Maharajah of Jodhpur from 1918 until his death two months before independence.
Indian royalty was abolished under Indira Gandhi's government in the 1970s and the palace became a hotel, since when it has reportedly played host to Mick Jagger and been the site of a Sting concert.
It joins several other Indian palaces in this respect, including the 18th century Lake Palace in Udaipur, now a fashionable spot for weddings and honeymoons.
