The Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding on July 3 hosted around 1,000 guests and featured many celebrities.
Along with some of the top names from Hollywood, like Julia Robert and Bradley Cooper, many important faces from the NFL world also appeared to give their blessings to the happy couple.
Some of the names included former players such as Tom Brady, along with current stars like Patrick Mahomes and Joe Burrow.
In addition to the players and their wives, Swift and Kelce also invited a few analysts to the wedding, including Ryan Clark and Stephen A. Smith.
Talking about the wedding during Thursday’s episode of “First Take,” Smith said:
“I was there,” Smith said. “I will tell you, I will say this to you, I was there. Travis Kelce invited me. Taylor Swift is wonderful. You know, I took my daughters to her concert twice. Not once. I spent a boatload of money, and it was worth it, by the way. Travis Kelce’s my brother from another mother, got nothing but love for him. It was an absolutely fabulous, fantastic wedding. It was very touching, very heartfelt. There were a bunch of wonderful people. It’s the greatest wedding I’ve ever seen. It’s at Madison Square Garden in New York City. It was spectacular. That much I will say. And I was honored to be there.”
Pat McAfee Brushes Off Rumors Around Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift Wedding
The Swift and Kelce wedding took place at Madison Square Garden in New York, with the whole venue reportedly turning into a fairy tale-themed castle.
While most guests described it as “magical,” a report by The Daily Mail claimed that some were unhappy with the arrangements at the wedding.
One guest allegedly complained about the long lines at the food buffet; others reportedly expressed frustration with the champagne shortage.
Brushing off the negativity around the wedding, Pat McAfee said last week:
“The event itself was like the most spectacular, grand thing I’ve ever seen in my entire life. Taylor Swift is one of the greatest creators that the world has ever seen. I mean, she puts on stadium shows all around the globe. She has to entertain people who are 90 and those who are 15. Think about her brain going to her dream wedding. And then Travis Kelce’s energy in the middle of it. And the football world is coming together with Hollywood.”
Kelce and Swift took the next step in their relationship after the Chiefs tight end went on one knee to propose to her in August 2025.
