Elton John and David Furnish wedding: Couple get married in Windsor ceremony
Elton John married his long-term partner David Furnish in a ceremony at Windsor estate in Berkshire, the UK.
A number of stars attended the ceremony. Among them were David and Victoria Beckham, Ed Sheeran and David Walliams.
David Furnish and Elton John, who have two sons together, became civil partners in 2005.
The couple’s sons Zachary, who was born in 2010, and Elijah, born last year attended the ceremony.
One image – showing the newlyweds holding hands, with Elijah standing between them – bears the caption: “Zachary grabs David’s iPhone and takes a photo of his brother while we exchange our vows.”
Elton John has been including the hashtag #ShareTheLove on his Instagram posts on December 21.
Friends of the couple have also been using the tag, with the Beckhams’ eldest son Brooklyn writing: “Amazing day with family and special friends congratulations Uncle Elton and Uncle David #ShareTheLove.”
The teenager posted a photograph of the wedding lunch menu, which included wild mushroom soup with truffle cream, beef short rib and caramelized onion pie and warm chocolate pudding with ice cream. Guests were served Laurent-Perrier champagne.
Elton John has posted a number of pictures on Instagram, where he has thousands of followers, including a picture taken at a window showing a garden, with the caption: “Good morning! Nice day for a wedding.”
He later wrote: “The tables look stunning! We had red roses at our Civil Partnership 9 years ago and they brought us so much luck.”
On December 21, 2005, Elton John and David Furnish held a civil partnership ceremony at the Windsor Guildhall.
In March, the law was changed in England and Wales to allow same-gender marriage.
