Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Tie the Knot at Madison Square Garden

After months of rumours and speculation, superstar couple Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have finally tied the knot at New York's Madison Square Garden.

The news was confirmed on Friday evening by Swift's publicist, and at the same time, giant screens outside the arena lit up with the message: "JUST&T MARRIED!"

Swift, the world's biggest pop star, and Kelce, a three-time Super Bowl champion, got engaged last August, and fans have been wondering when, where and how it would happen ever since.

While many details about the celebrations are still under wraps, here is what we know so far.

Why him? Well, if you are starring in your own real-life romantic comedy, and you happen to be friends with one of the greatest rom-com actors of the past 30 years... why not?

The Wedding Singer actor has previously spoken about his friendship with the couple. "Taylor's so damn nice to my family and has always been," he told Entertainment Tonight, external last year.

"She's ridiculously nice to them and warm, and Travis is such a gentle, nice guy. Funny as hell. He's like the guys I grew up with."

Taylor's song Wi$h Li$t, from her latest album, was inspired by Sandler's character in 1996 film Happy Gilmore.

"He has this happy place where he goes into," she told Apple Music's Zane Lowe. "This is where he escapes to mentally in times of stress, pressure, anxiety or chaos.

"And that chorus of that song is me just describing what my happy place is."

Kelce made a cameo appearance in Sandler's Happy Gilmore sequel last year, and the actor returned the favour by appearing on the Kelce brothers' New Heights podcast.

According to TMZ, external, Sandler reprised his Wedding Singer role by performing his own "humorous yet touching" song at Friday's ceremony.

Travis and Taylor may even have got the idea to hire out Madison Square Garden from Sandler's 2002 film Mr Deeds, in which his character took over the venue to propose to his girlfriend, external.

As for Sandler's qualifications - any adult can apparently, external apply for a One-Day Marriage Officiant License to oversee a marriage ceremony in New York State.

There are no photos of the wedding dress yet, but we do know who designed it.

"The bride and groom's wedding ceremony looks have been created by Christian Dior Haute Couture," Swift's spokeswoman revealed on Friday.

"They are designed by Jonathan Anderson, Creative Director of Dior Women's, Men's and Haute Couture Collections, in close collaboration with the Bride and Groom.

"This is the designer's first couture wedding dress for a world-renowned celebrity."

Anderson, from Northern Ireland, is a former creative director at Loewe, and took over Dior last year.

In a statement, Dior said it was "delighted to confirm it has created the wedding looks for the marriage of Taylor and Travis", which were "created in Dior's ateliers at 30 Avenue Montaigne, Paris" by Anderson "in close collaboration with the couple".

Apart from what Swift's representative revealed, details about the event have been kept under wraps.

An inside source told TMZ that Swift walked down the aisle to one of her songs being played on strings, and that the decor was described as "Alice in Wonderland meets The Wizard of Oz".

Elaborate sets were seen being loaded into the venue in the lead up, including a large glitterball, a white staircase railing and items labelled "garden party".

Eyebrows were raised at the choice of Madison Square Garden as the venue, but as well as being an iconic location where the worlds of music and sport collide, one possible reason is that the interior could not be photographed by paparazzi or drones.
