Travis Kelce<\/a> has spoken publicly for the first time about his wedding<\/a> to Taylor Swift<\/a>, calling it the \u201cbest night of my life\u201d.<\/p>\n

The singer and NFL player, both 36, tied the knot at New York\u2019s Madison Square Garden (MSG) on July 3rd.<\/p>\n

More than 1,000 guests attended the event and while many have since posted photos on social media from the night, the newly-weds themselves are yet to share any snaps or details from their big day.<\/p>\n

However, Kelce has now broken his silence on their recent nuptials.<\/p>\n

Following a practice session with his team the Kansas City Chiefs, the professional American footballer addressed tying the knot.<\/p>\n

Speaking to reporters, he said: \u201cIt was a fun off-season, man.<\/p>\n

\u201cWedding was the best night of my life and I appreciate everybody who came out and celebrated and had fun with us.\u201d<\/p>\n

He went on to call it a \u201ccrazy night\u201d that was \u201cfull of a lot of celebration\u201d.<\/p>\n

The NFL player also shared that it had been his \u201cchildhood dream\u201d to go to Madison Square Garden.<\/p>\n

\u201cI always told myself I\u2019d go for a play-off game when the [New York] Knicks were rocking,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy wife went when I was stuck in training camp. I didn\u2019t get my opportunity to go then.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, it\u2019s kind of cool to be able to live out my childhood dream of being in that venue \u2026 the mecca of all sports venues.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cTo be able to get married in there \u2026 I can\u2019t thank the owners of MSG enough for letting us get the opportunity to do that knowing that we wanted a private event and everything, it was perfect. The AC was cooking \u2026 that was the best part.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the nearly six weeks since Swift and Kelce\u2019s wedding, neither has released any official images from the day.<\/p>\n

The marriage was officiated by Adam Sandler, with some of the other guests including Selena Gomez, Ed Sheeran, Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper, Zoe Kravitz, Graham Norton and Hugh Grant.<\/p>\n

Other notable guests included Camila Cabello, Jason Sudeikis, Jimmy Fallon, Tom Brady, Chris Rock, Jessica Alba, Steven Spielberg, Eric Stonestreet, Stephen Colbert, Sombr, Kelsea Ballerini, Benson Boone, Tommy Hilfiger and Miranda Lambert.<\/p>\n

A billboard outside the venue read \u201cJusT&T married\u201d after the ceremony took place.<\/p>\n

Their romance began in 2023 after Kelce publicly announced on his podcast that he was interested in Swift, which she later said was a \u201cwild, romantic gesture\u201d.<\/p>\n

Swift and Kelce announced their engagement<\/a> in a joint Instagram post in August 2025, which read: \u201cYour English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.\u201d \u2013 PA<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Travis Kelce has spoken publicly for the first time about his wedding to Taylor Swift, calling it the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":853739,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[64,63,447,134,1026,2897,14068],"class_list":["post-853738","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-new-york-city","tag-taylor-swift","tag-travis-kelce"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/853738","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=853738"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/853738\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/853739"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=853738"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=853738"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=853738"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
