Yodeler supreme Jewel Kilcher finally said I Do to her longtime cowboy boyfriend/fiancée Ty Murray in a super secret, hush-hush beach wedding in the Bahamas last week in an effort to evade public scrutiny by the media … and then immediately issued a press statement to People magazine the following day to tell the tale. HMMM. What I think is a bit hilarious is that Jewel thought there might be a crush of paps hunting her down to photograph her wedding … I mean, I don’t really see that happening but … whatevs. In any event, here is the first wedding photo of Jewel and Ty which the couple have released themselves, once again, to People magazine which you can see HERE:
Jewel sure knows how to pull off a hush-hush wedding. Without family, friends (or paparazzi!) knowing, the singer and rodeo star Ty Murray eloped to the Bahamas on Aug. 7. “To pull off the wedding quietly made it magical,” Jewel told PEOPLE the following day. Held at The Cove Atlantis resort in the Bahamas, the very private affair included just two guests: Jewel’s former keyboard player Jason Freese, who officiated (the couple found out he had been ordained online) and his wife Amy. At sunset, as Otis Redding’s “I’ve Been Loving You Too Long” played from their private cabana, Jewel, 34, (in Monique Lhuillier) met her groom (in jeans and cowboy boots) in the sand to recite their handwritten vows. “I said that I’ll try to make our lives the best piece of art I’ve ever done,” she said. Murray, 38, secretly proposed to the singer on her birthday, May 23, and the couple decided to elope since “we feel that’s what marriage is – just me and her,” he said. After their “I dos” the newlyweds called their families to break their happy news and enjoyed a surprise fireworks display from the resort. “It felt,” said the groom, “like we were the only ones in the world.” Perhaps not for long: Jewel told PEOPLE that she and Murray are “ready to start a family.” In fact, her new husband added, “We’re going to start working on that tonight!”
I suppose congrats are in order for the happy newlyweds. They did it! They pulled off the quiet wedding of their dreams. How Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon of them. They’re a wily couple, aren’t they? Again, much congrats :)
