The biggest names in the biz and beyond are pulling the curtain back on the biggest event of the year: Taylor Swift’s New York City wedding to Travis Kelce at Manhattan’s Madison Square Garden.

“It really was intimate,” "Good Morning America" host Robin Roberts said Saturday, revealing that the power couple wrote their own vows.

“As intimate as it could possibly be, given it was in Madison Square Garden,” co-host George Stephanopoulos agreed. “There was this garden inside The Garden, and it really was just so beautiful. It’s hard to imagine a place that big and a wedding with such stars could feel so personal and so intimate.”

Roberts also noted that the couple’s “neighbors and high school friends” were among the sea of celebs at the celebration, so “it was like any other wedding you would attend.”

Co-host Michael Strahan described the nuptials as a “dream wedding” before offering Swift and Kelce a hearty congratulations.

Adam Aaron, the CEO of AMC, revealed that he also attended the star-studded event. In a lengthy post on X, which has since been taken down, Aaron similarly reflected on how transformed The Garden had been for the festivities.

“Immediately upon entry, everything… floors walls, ceilings… was draped in peach and white,” he wrote, adding that the venue also adorned with images of Swift and Kelce from throughout their lives.

“Somehow magically, someone created an outdoor garden at a lush countryside retreat,” Aaron continued, going on to describe how real flowers and artificial trees also filled out the space. All of it was “headlined by handsome Travis in a white tux, and a jaw-dropping Taylor in a stunning white wedding dress with a long veiled train,” he said.

Aaron also provided some insight into the couple’s vows, saying they were “long, entertaining, personal, charming, emotional, irreverent and endearing explorations” of how they met as well as their hopes and dreams for the future.

“What was clear above all else was this: their profound love,” he added.

 

Scores of Swifties braced the heat and hung out outside MSG as the wedding went on inside, and cheered when the words “JUST&T MARRIED!” appeared on multiple jumbo electronic billboards outside in black letters on bright pink backgrounds around 7:30 p.m.

As the evening wore on, a catering company showed up and gave Swift fans some leftover desserts.

Upwards of 200 cops were on hand to block off the streets around Madison Square Garden and keep watch as celebrities walked into MSG or drove in through an entranceway shrouded by a tent.

An NYPD spokeswoman said that no arrests had been made, although someone was recorded being escorted from the frozen zone around the stadium.

After months of speculation, Swift and Kelce tied the knot on Friday in front of 1,000 people at Madison Square Garden, with Adam Sandler reportedly officiating the ceremony. There were no bridesmaids or groomsmen like a typical wedding. Instead, the Grammy winner’s brother Austin Swift served as her man of honor while Travis’ brother Jason Kelce was his best man.

In the hours before, other A-listers took to social media, seemingly to show off their outfits for the event. Singers Camila Cabello, who opened for Swift’s Reputation tour, and Sombr — who performed for the “Opalite” singer’s Songwriter’s Hall of Fame induction — both shared TikToks as they dressed up for the wedding festivities. Actress Jessica Chastain, meanwhile, shared a photo of her hair styled up in a bob.

“I don’t know you about you, but I’m feeling 1922,” she wrote in the caption, nodding to a Swift song.

NFL stars like Julian Edelman, Beau Allen and Baker Mayfield also took to Instagram to show off their tuxedos for the big day.
