💬| AMC theaters CEO, Adam Aaron on Taylor Swift’s wedding:
“Immediately upon entry, everything… floors, walls, ceilings… was draped in peach and white. 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.
A small portion of MSG was cordoned off, devoid of any notion that that a basketball or hockey game ever shared that space. Somehow magically, someone created an outdoor garden at a lush countryside retreat. Everything draped off this time in green and white. Real flowers and I think artificial trees welcomed fifteen rows of maybe 75 or so chairs. They say there were around one thousand attendees, but surprisingly, it all felt intimate and small. Everything was close.
After some relaxing and mellow romantic songs played to settle the house, a few violins and cello ushered in the wedding party. Headlined by handsome Travis in a white tux, and a jaw-dropping Taylor in a stunning white wedding dress with a long veiled train.
An officiant talked and sang and talked. He was warm and welcoming, funny and eloquent.
Then the vows. 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.
What was clear above all else was simply this: their profound love. This is no small love. Each at the absolute pinnacle of their worlds. Each so obviously head over heels about having found their soulmate.
Rings exchanged. I now pronounce you husband and wife. A sweep you off your feet kiss.
Then the party, an even larger stage set of a “Secret Garden” that was just exquisite. With five-story-tall lit “trees.” Superb food and drink. An A-list audience to fete the young couple. And music, music, music.”
Tonight, we light up Union Station in orange and teal for Taylor Swift and red and gold for Travis Kelce.
Thank you, Travis and Taylor, for your incredible generosity today, supporting charities across the nation, including here in Kansas City, and making a lasting impact that will touch thousands of lives.
And from all of us at Union Station and throughout the Kansas City community, enjoy your special weekend. We send our congratulations and wish you every happiness together.
Tonight, the Kingdom lights shine for you. ❤️

Great now I’m crying. 😭😭 I know everyone is so excited it’s finally a happy ending for Taylor but I’m also so happy for Travis. No one talks about him finding his person enough.
