Jewish American actor and comedian Adam Sandler officiated Taylor Swift's wedding to Travis Kelce at Madison Square Garden this weekend.

The BBYO alumnus, who had his bar mitzvah in his parents' basement, qualified as an officiant to marry the couple in front of a reported 1,000 guests.

Sandler’s role was one of the first details of the wedding to emerge, as billionaire singer-songwriter Swift wed American football player Kelce in one of the closest-watched celebrity events of the decade, with details of the nuptials still emerging.
