Travis Kelce shares first comments about wedding to Taylor Swift - 'Best night of my life'

American football player Travis Kelce has reflected on his wedding to Taylor Swift, telling US media that their nuptials were "the best night of my life".

Kelce and Swift tied the knot on 3 July at New York's Madison Square Garden in a star-studded event that was largely kept private.

Few details from the ceremony have been shared publicly and Kelce's comments on Wednesday mark the first he's shared since the couple were wed by comedic actor Adam Sandler.

"It was kind of cool to live out my childhood dream of being in that venue, the mecca of all sports venues, being able to get married there," Kelce told reporters at the Kansas City Chiefs' training camp in Missouri.

Kelce called the wedding "the best night of my life", thanking guests who attended and calling it "a crazy night".

The NFL star and the award-winning singer have kept much of the details of the wedding private and there have been no official photos released of the ceremony held inside the stadium. A litany of Hollywood A-list stars, such as actors Hugh Grant and Jason Sudeikis, singer Benson Boone and model Gigi Hadid were in attendance.

Kelce said he had wanted to attend a game when the New York Knicks basketball team were having a good playoff run last year, but had other commitments. The team ended up winning the NBA championships for the first time in nearly six decades.

"My wife went when I was stuck in a mini camp so I didn't get my opportunity to go then," he said referring to Swift as his wife publicly for the first time. She sat courtside at Game 4 of the NBA Finals, when the Knicks pulled off a stunning upset against the San Antonio Spurs in a 107-106 finish.
