Sir Elton John's wedding plans might not be as low-key as he and partner David Furnish had previously hoped, according to the AP.
John and Furnish's wedding plans have been displayed at Maidenhead Town Hall, revealing that the couple plan to get married on December 21 at the Guildhall in Windsor.
Local council leader Mary Rose Gliksten says she expects large crowds to show up, but has contingency plans to deal with the situation. "Sir Elton and Mr. Furnish are making a solemn and formal commitment to each other, and our Guildhall offers them dignity and privacy," Gliksten explained.
Sir Elton says that the ceremony will be "a very small family affair. The ceremony itself will be David's parents and my parents and the two of us. Out of respect for their support, we want to just keep it small. Not to make a ballyhoo of the ceremony."
The couple have been together for 12 years.
