What does it take to make a wedding at Madison Square Garden feel intimate? For Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, it took a performance from Stevie Nicks.

The Fleetwood Mac singer treated the newlyweds' star-studded guest list to a special live performance at their July 3 ceremony, according to attendee Robin Roberts. "We can confirm that yes, Stevie Nicks did perform," Roberts shared on Good Morning America the morning after the nuptials. She did not reveal what songs were played, but noted, "But it really was intimate."

The wedding was a grand affair held at the iconic New York arena. According to a statement from the couple's representatives to NBC News, the pair opted against a traditional wedding party. Despite the massive venue, guests described a surprisingly personal atmosphere. Roberts' co-host and fellow attendee George Stephanopoulos said, "It was as intimate as it possibly could be given it was Madison Square Garden. It was really this garden inside the Garden, which was so beautiful." The venue was reportedly decorated to look like a fairytale, with guests entering through a tunnel featuring photos of the couple from childhood through their relationship.

Part of that familiar feeling came from the guest list itself. Roberts noted the couple included their "neighbors, their high school friends," adding, "It really was like any wedding you'd attend." Celebrities in attendance included Emma Stone, Zoë Kravitz, Ed Sheeran, Gigi Hadid, and Bradley Cooper. Michael Strahan, among the reported 1,000 guests, called it "their dream wedding. It really was amazing, congratulations to them."

Swift's longtime best friend from high school, Abigail Anderson, was also there. Following her engagement, among the only details Swift let slip about her special day was she planned to invite "anyone I’ve ever talked to." "I think the only stressful weddings are the ones where you have a small amount of people," she added during her October appearance on The Graham Norton Show, "and people are on the bubble—and you have to evaluate or assess your relationship with them to see if they should be there." For Swift and Kelce, the guest list was clearly never on the bubble.
