The retired NFL player, who served as his younger brother’s best man at the July 3 nuptials, visited Philadelphia radio station 94WIP and spoke about the Madison Square Garden event in a clip posted Thursday on Instagram.
When asked about the ceremony, Jason Kelce described it as “incredible” and “more than 10 out of 10.”
He also shared that he became emotional as he watched Swift and his brother celebrate their love story.
“I am a crier. I did cry … Probably cried more at this wedding than I cried at my own wedding, which probably is not acceptable,” he joked.
He playfull added that his wife, Kylie Kelce, was “probably not happy about that.”
He praised comedian Adam Sandler, who officiated the ceremony, for being the ideal person for the job.
“Obviously, he’s hilarious and he knows how to make it entertaining and funny, but there’s a sweetness to Adam in everything he does, all of his movies, that really resonated throughout,” Kelce said.
Speaking about the bride and groom, he said, “I think that Taylor and Travis were fantastic in the ceremony.”
He revealed that the pair strayed from a traditional reception and instead threw a giant party with their friends and family.
“My favorite moments were just the different people that are at this wedding, right? Like, in one moment, I’m going (from) seeing Brad Pitt pop out of a corner and talking to him, and then in the next moment, I’m seeing Mrs. Clark who ran the attendance at Cleveland Heights High School,” he said, referring to the school the brothers attended.

Kelce took some time to catch up with his former teacher and reminisce about his younger days when he tried to mimic his dad’s voice to call out sick. Other friends and relatives from their hometown were there, he said, as well as more famous faces like Conan O’Brien.
“It was an amazing evening with a lot of awesome people, and, you know, just so happy for both Travis and Taylor,” he said.
In another clip, Jason Kelce expressed how surprised he is that pictures from the wedding still haven’t leaked.
“I haven’t seen any legitimate photos really from the wedding. It’s remarkable that there was a thousand people inside Madison Square Garden … and there’s really not a lot out there,” he said.
The lack of pictures shows how much effort his brother and sister-in-law put in to make their special day feel “intimate,” he said.
He noted the backlash the two received for holding their wedding at the New York City arena and said that the space “didn’t feel like Madison Square (Garden).”
“They did a great job of finding an area that could be very secure,” he continued. “Some place that they would be able to have this kind of control over it, while also feeling intimate and really special. It was incredibly done.”
In the weeks since the nuptials, more information about the pop icon and the Kansas City Chiefs star’s unique venue and ceremony have emerged — mostly thanks to Jason Kelce.
He previously told the Reno Gazette Journal that all four of his daughters — Wyatt, 6, Elliotte, 5, Bennett, 3, and Finnley, 1 — were flower girls.
“They’re beautiful, they’re incredible personalities,” he gushed. “And Travis and Taylor love them.”
