The duo tied the knot on Friday, July 3, under a strict no-phone policy, keeping their Madison Square Garden wedding largely private.
Despite the secrecy, guests have gradually revealed new details from the celebration, with reports suggesting the couple chose a romantic "Secret Garden" theme for the ceremony. Accounts from attendees have offered a closer look at the intimate event.
Attendees also shared moments from the vows, saying Kelce appeared more emotional than Swift during the heartfelt exchange. “You would think the bride would be the one crying more, but it was actually Travis that was more emotional,” one guest said.
