Travis Kelce got emotional when he saw his bride Taylor Swift during their wedding, according to one attendee.

The NFL player was "a puddle" during the ceremony, sportscaster Joe Buck, who attended the wedding with his wife, said on a July 25 episode of The Athletic's Starkville podcast.

"Travis was a puddle watching his nieces come down the little ramp that they built. And then, you know, when she walked out, he was a puddle," Buck said.

Kelce and Swift married in a massive, star-studded affair at Madison Square Garden on July 3. While the newlyweds have revealed little information about their nuptials, many guests have shared details in the weeks since.

Buck's nod to Kelce's nieces is seemingly a reference to the flower girls – an honor that went to Jason and Kylie Kelce's four daughters, sportscaster and attendee Rich Eisen told "Entertainment Tonight" in a July 10 interview.

Joe Buck says Swift, Kelce wedding was a 'pinch yourself kind of night'

Buck said he had run-ins with A-listers like Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt and Scarlet Johansson at the event.

"Watching Paul McCartney singing 'I Want To Hold Your Hand' for the first time publicly since 1964, it was a pinch yourself kind of night," he said.

The sportscaster also said the ceremony "really felt like they were getting married," as opposed to the possibility of Swift and Kelce having wed prior to the event.

"Their vows were long. They were really well written, they were funny, they were sweet, they were emotional," he added.

He also estimated that about a thousand people were in attendance.

"I kept walking around all night waiting for somebody to tap me on the shoulder and be like, 'OK, I think you guys have had about enough. It's time for you to go. You really weren't on the real list of people that we wanted here,'" he said. "But it was pretty surreal."
