Watch Nic from Love Island officiate a wedding at Bass Canyon

King of side quests and Love Island USA star, Nic Vansteenberghe, wraps up Bass Canyon with a special moment for fans.

Talk about a crossover episode! It was not on the 2025 bingo card that Nic Vansteenberghe, Love Island USA season 7 contestant, would be officiating a Bass Canyon wedding at the Gorge Amphitheatre.

In between sets, fans catch the reality TV star taking on the role of a Bass Canyon wedding officiant. Video clips of the wedding show the couple, Sam and Ed, sharing their first kiss as Nic and festival attendees give the wedding couple loud celebratory cheers.

Multiple fans even comment below the Nicolandria fan page, claiming Nic as “the king of side quests”. Will we ever catch Nicolandria headbanging together on the rails?

Non-traditional ceremonies at electronic dance music festivals have long been a trend at festivals like EDC Las Vegas and Electric Forest. Moreover, an on-site wedding chapel is available for couples to book legal or non-legal ceremonies. Insomniac even offers themed packages, including traditional, commitment, or “rave renewal, for all different types of romantic or platonic soulmates.

Fans have welcomed the Love Island star into the bass community, praising his genuine love for the music. Some fans have even wondered if the bass community will finally receive the recognition it deserves after a micro-celebrity such as Nic promotes the culture and music.

It’s no secret that Nic is a fan and friend of the bass community. The reality TV star has also made appearances behind prominent bass DJs, including Subtronics, Sullivan King, ATLiens, and Excision.

Nic rose to fame after successfully winning the girl of his dreams, Olandria Carthen, in a friends-to-lovers trope. Before Love Island USA, the 24-year-old worked as a registered nurse and model. Since leaving the show, Nic and Olandria have been an ultimate fan favorite, being shipped as #Nicolandria.
