“It was a special event for our entire family, and obviously my daughters are incredible,” Jason said. “They’re beautiful, they’re incredible personalities. And Travis and Taylor love them.

While the wedding drew attention for its star-studded guest list and intimate setting, the former NFL star focused on the personal memories his family took away from the celebration.

Even Rich Eisen, who attended the wedding, revealed that Jason's daughters were seen “sprinkling flower petals all over the place” during the celebration.

Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce forgo bridesmaids, groomsmen

Swift and Kelce chose a more intimate approach for their wedding by doing away with the traditional lineup of bridesmaids and groomsmen. Instead, the couple gave special roles to their siblings, with Jason standing beside his younger brother as Best Man and Swift's brother serving as her Man of Honor.

The couple exchanged vows on July 3 during a ceremony at Madison Square Garden, where actor Adam Sandler officiated the wedding. The event brought together several familiar faces from the football community.
