It certainly was *not* a cruel summer for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, who tied the knot in front of their many loved ones in July.
The global pop sensation, 36, and the NFL tight end, also 36, got married at Madison Square Garden, the famed New York City arena, in front of a reported 1,000 guests, which included celebrities like Brad Pitt, Hugh Grant, Sabrina Carpenter, and many more.

Travis and his older brother Jason Kelce dropped the newest episode of the podcast's season the morning of September 2, the first to be filmed after the wedding, and just 10 minutes in, the former Philadelphia Eagles player got to it.
Travis Kelce finally spills on his and Taylor Swift's wedding
"Speaking of other things out of the bag, we do have probably the most interesting bit of the off-season that happened to both of us, but certainly to you," Jason, 38, quipped, with Travis saying: "I'm a married man!"
While they mentioned that they'd discussed as much on other podcasts and it'd been over a month by the time they were recording, they both agreed that the night was "insane," and one "we'll never forget."
"Me and Taylor are so thankful for everybody that showed up," the Kansas City Chiefs player continued. "From the vows, to just seeing everyone, to how much fun we had throughout the entire evening. And hearing that be relayed through everybody's stories of the night."

"It was just so magical, man, and I wish it could've lasted even longer than it did," with Jason joking that "they kicked us out," although Travis noted that once the drinks "stopped being served, everyone just moseyed out."
He expressed gratitude for MSG for hosting the ceremony, and creating a "very intimate and genuine setting, without a lot of distractions." Contrary to the larger than life, star-studded production fans had pictured, Travis credited the venue for making the event feel quite "private."
On Adam Sandler officiating the wedding
The brothers also reserved a special shout-out for Adam Sandler, who officiated the ceremony and happened to, in fact, get ordained in the state of New York to do so, calling him "just the [expletive] best person on this planet."

He also gave Taylor and Travis props for their "incredible" vows and for structuring the wedding to not feature a formal sit-down dinner with speeches, instead going straight into party mode after the ceremony.

"It was a magical night man," Travis summarized.
