The guest list for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding was star-studded – I mean, Adam Sandler officiated it for Pete's sake. Musicians, football players, actors, and more were present; however, normal everyday folks were there too. It was that juxtaposition that Jason Kelce really loved, as he name-dropped Brad Pitt and the person who took attendance at his high school while recalling his “favorite” moments from the wedding at Madison Square Garden.

It felt like anyone with a connection to Travis or Swift was invited to this high-profile event, and Jason’s comments about the wedding he deemed “more than ten out of ten” emphasize that. While doing an interview on 94 Wip Sports Radio, he opened up about the people he talked to after his brother and sister-in-law tied the knot, and yes, it includes Brad Pitt:

My favorite moments were just like the different people that are at this wedding, right? In one moment, I’m 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. And it was just, you know, I haven’t seen her in forever. And we’re reminiscing about me trying to call out sick one time and trying to play like I’m Ed Kelce, and she knew right away I wasn’t Ed Kelce.

Weddings are one of the few times in life when all your friends and family can collide in one place. For Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, that meant some of the most famous people in the world were interacting with others who are more like you and me (save the connection to the newlyweds). Overall, it’s wild to think that Jason could go from talking to an A-lister like Pitt to reminiscing about his high school days with Mrs. Clark.

It adds to the notion that despite its size, this was an “intimate” wedding, as it seems like everyone kind of got to interact with each other as they celebrated the pop star and football player.

To make that juxtaposition among the guests clearer, Jason provided another example of how his friends and family interacted with a bunch of celebrities, saying:

And, you know, there was just hometown kids and friends there, their families. Seeing the Bakers and then seeing, you know, Conan O’Brien, like the tallest Irish guy I’ve ever seen, next to [Kylie Kelce's] dad. It was a very – it was an amazing evening, with a lot of awesome people.

I would have certainly loved to see some photos from the wedding of this. However, I can picture Conan O’Brien towering over a lot of the guests and standing tall with the football players in attendance. I can also imagine Jason bopping around and talking to everyone from the Moneyball star to an old family friend.

All these worlds coming together must have been an enchanting thing to witness. From “300 lb men from the football business crying” over the couple’s vows to a country singer posting about the wedding favors handed out, it seems like everyone in MSG, no matter where they came from, had a magical experience. This includes Jason Kelce too, who absolutely loved chatting it up with a wide variety of people at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's reception.
