The Registrar welcomes our guests. #ShareTheLove, John wrote on this Instagram photo. The couple first joined into a civil partnership in 2005, exactly nine years before their wedding ceremony Sunday.
The law for same-sex marriage changed in England and Wales in March, allowing for Sir Elton and Mr. Furnish to make their union official.
DANIEL HAMBURY/EPA Sir Elton John and Mr. David Furnish are seen Dec. 21, 2005, after their civil partnership. Their wedding took place exactly nine years later, on Sunday. "For this legislation to come through is joyous, and we should celebrate it," John said at the time. "We shouldn't just say, 'Oh, well we have a civil partnership. We're not going to bother to get married.' We will get married."
And they did, in front of an intimate star-studded crowd, including singer Ed Sheeran, at their Windsor estate in Berkshire, reports BBC.
Did Rush go ?
I had to correct it. Five compliments that the bride likes to hear on his wedding day.

Hate to be the “Debbie Downer” on this thread, but they are not, by definition, married. It is impossible. Call it whatever else you want, but it is simply not a marriage.
Well that describes almost all of the big rockers from that era.
Butt plugs R US ?
Aw that’s so sweet. Now excuse me while I puke.
The day I found out the scum was a homo I threw away every album, tape and CD that I had of the creep. When I am listening to the radio and I hear his songs start, I change the channel. I quit listening when he ran his mouth about my Creator. When the homo said Jesus was nothing. That is when I dealt him off. He has a date with his Creator also, at the Great White Throne. Johnny Boy ain’t going to like the outcome of that meeting.
HAHAHA! You’re telling us?!?! =)
They can call it what they want but "marriage" it was not!
Jesus speaking: 4 "Haven't you read," he replied, "that at the beginning the Creator 'made them male and female,' 5 and said, 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh' ? 6 So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate."
Millions of years of History, Common Sense and Judeo Christian Morality tell me it never was and NEVER WILL BE equal to Male-Female Coupling.
LOL, now, I can’t hear that song any other way.
Same as when somebody ‘twisted’ the lyrics to
‘Don’t let the sun go down on me’.
Oh, well, good talent. Of course. Of course. EVERYTHING’S all right, then.
“Now on to the ceremony! #ShareTheLove @DavidFurnish”
Anyone who actually believes that these two perverts sexually reserve themselves to one another is an idiot.
“I rang up a friend in London and said, Could you please rattle some new people together for dinner here Saturday? John told Parade. “[David] was very well dressed, very shy. The next night we had dinner. After it, we consummated our relationship. We fell in love very quickly. John added that to keep that spark in their relationship, “Every Saturday for 16 years, weve sent each other a card, no matter where we are in the world, to say how much we love each other.
Barf.
I hear Elton has problems sitting on the pot. 25 years is alot of abuse to that persons poop shooter.
I do not care what they do with and to one another, nor do I care what they call it. But I very much care that they have decided to raise two little boys together—depriving them of a normal family. That is pure evil. In any decent society, it would be criminal.
Danza’s a very aggressive lead.
Tradition are things that are so important to us that we forgot why they’re important.
