Travis Kelce says wedding to Taylor Swift was 'best night of my life'

American football player Travis Kelce has revealed that his wedding to pop star Taylor Swift was the best night of his life. The couple, both 36, exchanged vows over a two-day celebration at Madison Square Garden in New York on July 2 and 3. Kelce, a Kansas City Chiefs player, expressed his gratitude to all who attended and described the night as "crazy" and full of celebration.

The event, shrouded in mystery, was confirmed through Swift's spokeswoman and messages on the venue's screens. Adam Sandler officiated the ceremony, and the couple's attire was chosen by designer Jonathan Anderson for Christian Dior. Swift wore Louboutin shoes during the event. One thousand people, including numerous celebrities, attended the wedding, prompting a heavy police presence and closure of nearby streets.

New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani disclosed that the newlyweds paid the city $160,000 (S$204,800) for the associated costs. Journalist George Stephanopoulos noted the personal and intimate nature of the wedding, despite the venue's large scale. The couple announced their relationship two years ago and got engaged in August 2025.
