Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding vows were written and read aloud to each other from “little books,” guests who attended their July 3 ceremony at Madison Square Garden in New York City have shared. What else do we know about the couple’s wedding vows?

GMA‘s Robin Roberts let loose the “little book” detail on Saturday morning’s broadcast, on which she chatted about Swift and Kelce’s Friday night celebration with fellow attendees Michael Strahan and George Stephanopoulos.

Stephanopoulos further revealed that Swift and Kelce’s vows were “everything you would hope for — real, vulnerable, serious and silly, deeply loving” in a separate report on ABC News the night of the wedding.

Swift and Kelce’s wedding event was styled as a “garden inside the Garden,” added Stephanopoulos the morning after on GMA. “It was just beautiful.”

While the GMA hosts were careful to keep their wedding report short and sweet, another high-profile wedding guest, AMC CEO Adam Aron, penned and posted to social media a lengthier insider’s account of the experience at Swift and Kelce’s wedding — unveiling more personal details about what the bride and groom said in their vows.

Aron described Swift and Kelce’s wedding vows as follows: “Long, entertaining, personal, charming, emotional, irreverent and endearing explorations by each as to how they met, why they want to be with each other for all eternity, the promises they made in joining their much-beloved two whole families (Kelce’s and Swift’s) as one, and committing to their new mutual life together.”

Though his report on the wedding has since been deleted, the AMC exec let slip more details on their “I do” moment, saying it culminated in “a sweep you off your feet kiss.”

He wrote quite a bit about the decor, too — “large blown up pictures of Taylor and Travis at each age, year by year from one year-old to late teenager-hood, were on display,” he said, and “a small portion of MSG was cordoned off, devoid of any notion that a basketball or hockey game ever shared that space. Somehow magically, someone created an outdoor garden at a lush countryside retreat.”

The party after the ceremony was like a “stage set of a ‘Secret Garden’ that was just exquisite. With five-story-tall lit ‘trees,’” Aron said.

The small details shared about Swift and Kelce’s wedding so far might bring to mind a theme the celebrated songwriter has written of before. Vows read from a book, and an overall garden concept perhaps have personal ties for Swift, who once wrote about going “to secret gardens in my mind; I read about it in a book when I was a precocious child” on her 2024 album The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology, a reference to the classic children’s novel The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett. The Secret Garden was also made into a film (directed by Agnieszka Holland, executive produced by Francis Ford Coppola) that was popular with kids in the ’90s.

If the handwritten vows brought tears to anyone’s eyes, Swift was ready for it: wedding guests were given custom lace handkerchiefs embroidered with a “TT” monogram, as well as the July 3, 2026 event date, its New York City location and the “Blank Space” lyric “So it’s gonna be forever…” stitched in cursive.
