Eve Jobs' Lavish Cotswolds Wedding: A Society Spectacle Unfolds
SOCIETY WEDDING OF THE YEAR: EVE JOBS AND HARRY CHARLES TIE THE KNOT IN A MULTI-MILLION POUND FAIRYTALE
The picturesque village of Great Tew in the Cotswolds is abuzz with excitement as thousands of specially crafted red roses are being assembled for the floral display at the society wedding of the year. The nuptials between Eve Jobs, daughter of the late Apple founder Steve Jobs, and Harry Charles, a Team GB show jumping star, will be a star-studded affair like no other.
The 12th-century Norman structure of St Michael's and All Angels Church is being transformed into a breathtaking venue for the ceremony. Up to 20 florists, set designers, and security guards are working tirelessly to create an unforgettable atmosphere. The church's nave is adorned with beech tree branches, while 101 candles line the altar. Two £15,000 Persian rugs run along the aisle, adding a touch of luxury to this historic setting.
Despite the opulence surrounding the wedding, Eve and Harry have opted for a modest approach by paying the standard £675 fee to get married at St Michael's and All Angels Church. Canon William Burke, the vicar, revealed that they paid a flat fee, which is in line with the church's policy of not charging more or less.
As preparations are underway for the wedding, Eve and Harry have been putting the finishing touches on their big day. Yesterday, they completed a final dress rehearsal at the church, led by renowned wedding planner Stanlee Gatti. The couple was joined by their groomsmen and bridesmaids, who were transported to the venue in private hire coaches.
Meanwhile, Eve's mother Laurene Powell Jobs, a billionaire philanthropist, has spared no expense in ensuring her daughter's special day is nothing short of perfection. According to sources close to the family, invites have gone out to figures from fashion, sport, and business, including former US Vice President Kamala Harris, who is expected to attend.
The guest list reads like a Who's Who of A-list celebrities, with Princess Beatrice also rumored to make an appearance. Sir Elton John will reportedly perform at the wedding, for a fee of £1 million, while other notable guests include Arctic Monkeys star Matt Helders and Bruce Springsteen's daughter Jessica.
Eve's half-siblings, Reed Jobs and Erin Jobs, are likely to be in attendance, but it remains unclear if her older sibling Lisa Brennan-Jobs will join the festivities. The bride's close friends, including Lilli Hymowitz, daughter of billionaire Gregg Hymowitz, are also expected to celebrate with Eve.
The wedding party will take place at Estelle Manor country hotel set at Eynsham Hall, which is renowned for hosting high-end events. However, the guest list has put a squeeze on availability, causing some disruption in the village. A local resident described the preparations as "a full-scale takeover of the high-end venues in the Cotswolds" and warned that there will be "a lot of VIPs here this weekend."
Eve's relationship with Harry began after they met at the 2022 Paris Olympic Games, where he won a gold medal in team jumping. The couple has kept their romance largely private but has been spotted together on several occasions, including a recent outing to a charity gala.
Eve, a rising star in both equestrian sport and fashion, has made headlines for her stunning appearance at Paris Fashion Week and her debut at the Met Gala. Her mother Laurene Powell Jobs has been instrumental in helping Eve navigate the world of high society, having backed Kamala Harris's presidential campaign last year.
The ceremony will be a fitting tribute to Eve's late father Steve Jobs, who passed away from pancreatic cancer in 2011. In an interview with The New York Times, Eve revealed that her father had limited their technology use at home and wanted them to work for their own money. She has followed in his footsteps by studying science, technology, and society at Stanford University.
As the world watches Eve Jobs tie the knot with Harry Charles, one thing is certain: this wedding will be a fairytale come true for the young couple and their families.
