Madison Square Garden (MSG) has reportedly terminated employees who violated a strict nondisclosure agreement (NDA) related to the wedding of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, according to journalist Myles Miller of Bloomberg.
Details regarding the number of employees fired or the specific nature of the NDA breaches remain unclear. MSG has not yet commented on the matter. The couple implemented stringent measures to maintain privacy for their ceremony, including the confiscation of phones from all attendees, which encompassed police officers on duty, staff members, construction crews, and approximately 1,000 guests. Attendees were reportedly required to surrender their phones before entering the venue.
Leading up to the ceremony, there were reports of unusual activity, including the brief appearance and subsequent removal of a red carpet at MSG. This was reportedly due to an error in color, with the intended carpet being purple, not red. Rumors also circulated about Swift purchasing all available calla lilies in New York City for the event.
The wedding took place on Friday, and some celebrity guests began sharing details on Saturday morning. Hosts from "Good Morning America," including George Stephanopoulos, Robin Roberts, and Michael Strahan, confirmed details about the event. They described the venue as transformed into a "garden inside The Garden" and confirmed that Stevie Nicks performed. The ceremony was described as feeling "intimate" despite the high-profile guest list, which included figures like Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper. The inclusion of neighbors and high school friends contributed to this intimate atmosphere.
Further details, provided by Swift's publicist Tree Paine, indicated that the couple wore custom Dior. Swift's brother, Austin, served as her Man of Honor, and Jason Kelce was his brother's Best Man. Jason Kelce's daughters acted as flower girls. A string quartet reportedly played one of Swift's songs during her entrance.
The couple confirmed their marriage at approximately 7:30 p.m. by displaying "JUST&T MARRIED!" on screens outside MSG, a reference to their shared initials.
