A mutual friend of Furnish and Elton John left a message for Furnish inviting him to a dinner party at Elton John`s house on October 30, 1993. Initially fearing that the dinner would be unpleasant, or that John would be boring, he instead found John to be interesting and engaging. Both were attracted to each other; John asked for his phone number and the two had a private dinner the following night.
Furnish resigned from his position in 1994 after finding it increasingly difficult to balance the position`s demands with the demands of his new life with John.
With a keen interest in film, Furnish enrolled in courses at the British Film Institute. He is currently co-chief of Rocket Pictures along with John.
Elton John proposed to David Furnish in May 2005 at a dinner party with friends and family at their home in Old Windsor.
On 21 December 2005, they entered into a civil partnership. The night before the event, a host of his closest celebrity friends helped him celebrate his stag party at the cabaret nightclub Too2Much in London`s West End.[31] On the actual day, a low-key ceremony with their parents, photographer Sam Taylor-Wood and her husband Jay Jopling, and John and Furnish`s dog Arthur in attendance was held at the Guildhall, Windsor, followed by a lavish party at their Berkshire mansion,[32] thought to have cost £1 million.[33] Many famous guests were invited, but were delayed just outside John`s Windsor household in a traffic jam of guests waiting to get inside.
