Speaking with People, Nettles said she was just as surprised as everyone else by how tightly the wedding was kept under wraps.
“It all surprised me, because of course, no one knew anything,” she explains of the wedding. “I guess people had - there were leaks here and there where people were guessing, but no one knew for sure where we were going until much closer to the time.”
Nettles also reflected on what it meant to witness such an important milestone in the couple's lives. She praised both Swift and Kelce for their career achievements, describing the wedding as a "special" celebration of two people at the top of their respective fields.
“To be a part of even a small part of their story for me was super special because, obviously, these are two people who are at the absolute top of their industry, the top of their game, the top of their craft, the top of their artistry,” Nettles says.
“It’s such an important time in their lives. To be able to witness that very special moment, it’s beautiful," she added.

Swift and Kelce's July 3 wedding wasn't just star-studded; it was locked down like a vault. According to reports, 1,000 guests attended the ceremony, but there was one major rule: absolutely no cell phones or electronic devices.
Even police officers assigned to the event were reportedly not allowed to use their personal phones, while staff members who allegedly tried to sneak a photo were quickly escorted out. The result? Not a single authentic wedding photo of the newlyweds has leaked online.

Now, it appears fans may not have to wait forever. The Kelce brothers' Instagram page recently hinted that Swift and Kelce plan to share their official wedding photos on Instagram. The post, however, stopped short of revealing when the highly anticipated pictures will be released.
Even though Swift and Kelce have yet to share their official wedding photos, Mr and Mrs Kelce have already made their first public appearance as newlyweds.
They were spotted at NFL star JuJu Smith-Schuster's wedding, marking their first photos together since tying the knot. As soon as the pictures and videos surfaced online, they quickly went viral across social media.
