Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been tight-lipped about their July 3 wedding day, but their family members? Not so much.

Taylor's aunt, Robin Gentry, shared an insight into the couple's Madison Square Garden ceremony after she was spotted leaving the venue in an SUV on Friday evening.

"They cried, and they laughed, and they danced, and they hugged, and they kissed," she said in a video shared by LBC News.

Realizing she may have said too much, she became coy when asked about the food at the reception, only admitting guests were spoilt for choice with "lots" to choose from.

When quizzed on whether the wedding cake was "nice," she simply answered, 'Yes,' as her car began to pull away from the crowd.

How Taylor and Travis transformed Madison Square Garden

Robin wasn't the only guest to seemingly break the rumored NDA, as AMC Theatres CEO Adam Aron, who worked closely with Taylor to release The Eras Tour concert movie in theaters, shared a detailed description of the wedding before later deleting the post, but not before fans screengrabbed it.

Adam Aron spilled details about Taylor's wedding day

"It did not look like Madison Square Garden. Immediately upon entry, everything… floors, walls, ceilings… was draped in peach and white. Large blown up pictures of Taylor and Travis at each age, year by year from one year-old to late teenager-hood, were on display," he said.

He added that "a small portion of MSG was cordoned off" and "magically, someone created an outdoor garden at a lush countryside retreat.

"Everything draped off this time in green and white. Real flowers and I think artificial trees welcomed fifteen rows of maybe 75 or so chairs."

Despite the scale of the wedding,  Adam said, "it all felt intimate and small. Everything was close."
