Eric Stonestreet, Travis Kelce, and Taylor Swift Cindy Ord/WireImage; Kevin Mazur/Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for iHeartRadio Eric Stonestreet praised Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce for creating a sense of “normalcy” at their wedding despite its huge scale. In a new interview with People, the Modern Family actor discussed being invited to the famous couple’s recent nuptials at Madison Square Garden.
“It was awesome,” Stonestreet said. “I mean, I think you’ve read everything that there is to be said about it.”
The actor attended with his wife Lindsay Schweitzer and noted, “We were just very conscious of being respectful to the couple. I didn’t want to peep before. I didn’t want to peep after. And then once people started putting stuff out there, of course we were proud to be invited.”
Stonestreet explained he was invited because he knows Swift “a little bit” and presented her with Favorite Country Female Artist at the American Music Awards in 2012. “We’ve seen Travis from when he was drafted and we’ve seen him through different phases of his life,” he said. “So when they started dating, we were so happy for him. But we were also happy for Taylor because we know what kind of human being Travis is. So we were excited to celebrate their love with them and a few other people in New York City, and it was just a treat to be there.”
He said he was impressed by how normal the wedding felt. “I think my favorite moment was just that they created a place that they could have the normalcy that they deserve,” he recounted. “And it just happened to be at Madison Square Garden with security making sure everybody was safe and good and they could just have a night for themselves.”
