BBC Radio 1 host Greg James has shared an insight into Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s spectacular wedding. The couple tied the knot on July 3 at Madison Square Garden.
Speaking on his BBC Radio 1 breakfast show, Greg revealed that there was no official sit down dinner at the wedding and explained that “a lot of the Brits did sort of congregate for a bit, and then everyone went off and did their own thing”. He also shared that there were multiple wedding cakes and joked “the first 10,000 drinks were free”.
Greg also confirmed that the wedding guests used the same Madison Square Garden arena toilets that fans use at sporting events held at the venue. “The venue looked beautiful, and it was all decked out as a wedding venue, but you know, arena toilets are arena toilets, so just toilets, you know,” he said. The radio host added that Taylor’s cats were not present at the nuptials.
The BBC star attended the wedding alongside his wife and fellow presenter Graham Norton. “So, Graham Norton was the only other person in the UK who was publicly invited to the wedding back in October when Taylor Swift was doing the interviews, so she invited me, and she invited Graham Norton,” said Greg.
Greg revealed that he spoke to the happy couple on their big day. “I went and found her, I went and found him, had a little chat. I just said, you know, what you say to the bride and groom, I said what a great thing, great, loved it, thanks so much for the invitation,” he shared.
