Jason Kelce said the Madison Square Garden wedding was unlike any other event he had attended because of its size and the effort made to keep the occasion personal.

“I haven’t seen any legitimate photos really from the wedding. It’s remarkable,” he said.

Jason further mentioned that the ceremony was his first wedding of such scale and grandeur. “There were a thousand people inside Madison Square Garden,” he shared, adding that the guest list included A-listers like Brad Pitt, along with family and friends from his hometown of Cleveland, Ohio.

The former football player also said he respects the couple's privacy, explaining, “There’s so much interest in what those guys are doing at all times, so I think you just get used to it.”

It was also reported that Travis became emotional while watching his nieces walk down the aisle as flower girls.

Sports commentator Joe Buck shared, “Travis was a puddle watching his nieces come down the little ramp that they built. And then, you know, when [Swift] walked out, he was a puddle.”
