Add Elton John to those who were not expecting him to get an invite to Rush Limbaugh's wedding.

"To put it in Elton's exact words, when he got the invitation, he was 'a little surprised,' " his partner David Furnish told PEOPLE on Sunday at the Tony Awards in New York. "And then, when it turned out to be a genuinely sincere invitation ... Elton said, 'Life is about building bridges, not walls.' "

Elton John may have seemed like the last person expected to perform at Rush Limbaugh's wedding over the weekend.

Limbaugh, 59, has made a number of colorful remarks about gays that have sparked outrage – and kept his conservative credentials intact. But on some issues, they do share common ground.

How Rush Limbaugh got Elton John

After a break for his honeymoon, Rush Limbaugh returned to the airwaves this week. And yes, he dished about his wedding—especially Elton John's performance there, and how it happened.

There was quite a bit of luck—good and bad—involved in making it all happen, Limbaugh explained on Tuesday. Limbaugh's then-bride-to-be had revealed that to him that what she wanted most for their nuptials was to have John perform. Fortunately, when Limbaugh took a trip to Hawaii last December, the general manager of the Kahala Hotel on Oahu told him that Elton John was in the suite right above his own room.
