Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid is revealing the sweet wedding advice officiant Adam Sandler gave bride Taylor Swift and groom Travis Kelce during the newlywed’s star-studded nuptials at Madison Square Garden.
“He told them to, ‘keep kissing,’” the NFL coach, 68, revealed while speaking to the press on Sunday, July 5, two days after the Kansas City Chief tight end said “I do” to the pop star at the iconic New York City venue on Friday, July 3.
“In its simplest form … it’s hard to argue when you give your wife a kiss or your wife gives you a kiss,” the coach continued. “And make sure to do it every day.”
Reid was one of a reported 1,000 of Kelce and Swift’s nearest and dearest friends and family members to witness their highly-anticipated wedding ceremony.
“The bride and groom’s wedding ceremony looks have been created by Christian Dior Haute Couture. They are designed by Jonathan Anderson, Creative Director of Dior Women’s, Men’s and Haute Couture Collections, in close collaboration with the bride and groom,” a rep for Swift revealed via press release shortly after billboards outside the famed venue announced the pair were officially married.
“This is the designer’s first couture wedding dress for a world-renowned celebrity,” the release continued. “[Both of] their shoes were custom made by Christian Louboutin and the bride wore Cartier jewelry.”
Swift and Kelce opted against having bridesmaids or groomsmen, instead enlisting their respective brothers to stand beside them.
“Her brother, Austin Swift, served as Taylor’s ‘Man of Honor’ and Jason Kelce was Travis’ Best Man,” a statement noted. “The ceremony joined both families together and was officiated by friend Adam Sandler.”
Despite the extensive guest list, oversized venue and superstar officiant, guests who attended the ceremony reported that the nuptials managed to feel intimate and personal.
“The ceremony was great, moving,” attendee and news anchor George Stephanopoulos said via a message read aloud on a Friday broadcast by reporter Sophie Flay. “Adam Sandler [was] funny and touching. Vows: everything you would hope for, real, vulnerable, serious and silly, deeply loving. Who knew that a wedding in Madison Square Garden could be so intimate?”
The pair also reportedly exchanged handwritten wedding vows they read from “little books,” taking a reported 20 minutes each to share their promises with each other and those in attendance.
“It really was intimate,” broadcaster Robin Roberts revealed after attending the couple’s ceremony during an episode of Good Morning America the following day. “Oh, their vows. They wrote either own vows.”
