Robin Gentry said the wedding was "so incredible" whilst she was leaving the venue.
“They cried, and they laughed, and they danced, and they hugged, and they kissed", she told the Telegraph.
Although she didn’t specify what was on the menu, she said guests ate “lots” and praised the wedding cake.
Rumours have been swirling about the star-studded wedding, which is said to have hosted around 1,000 guests and is thought to have cost around $20 million (£15 million).
The celebration came after the couple announced their engagement in August 2025.

Crowds gathered outside the iconic venue, as comedy film legend and friend of the couple, Adam Sandler, officiated the ceremony.
Musical icon Stevie Nicks performed at the ceremony, as reported by Good Morning America, with the couple's favourite food spot, Sartiano's, and an ice cream truck spotted entering the venue on Friday.
Tying the knot at 7.30pm local time (12.30am BST), large screens reading "JUST&T MARRIED!" were displayed outside of MSG an hour after Taylor's SUV was seen pulling into the venue.
The pop star wore a gown for the ceremony designed by Christian Dior, opting for custom Christian Louboutin shoes, and Cartier jewellery for the ceremony.
Stars including actors Hugh Grant and Jason Sadikis, presenter Graham Norton, and Eras Tour support act Gracie Abrams, were all spotted arriving at the central NYC venue on Friday.
Other stars spotted heading for the ceremony include Dakota Johnson, Tom Hanks, Sacha Baron Cohen, Tom Brady, and Jessica Alba.
Kansas City Chiefs head coach, Andy Reid, was also papped leaving the venue following the ceremony.
Described by guests as 'epic' and 'life-changing', stars including Jennifer Lopez, Ed Sheeran, Jimmy Fallon and Graham Norton were spotted heading for the venue.
It comes as NYC was gripped by a heatwave, with temperatures reaching 38C in downtown Manhattan on Friday.
The Best Man was Jason Kelce, Travis's brother, who was also an NFL star.
Austin Swift, Taylor's brother, served as the 'Man of Honour'.
The highly anticipated event is thought to have included an intimate dinner on Thursday with around 100 guests, followed by Friday’s celebration with a guest list of around 1,000 people.
The guest list proved to be star-studded one, with rapper Jay-Z, director Steven Spielberg, model Karlie Kloss, musician Benson Boone, and singers Fergie and Ellie Goulding spotted among the guests.
Actor Bradley Cooper was photographed in a black tuxedo following Thursday night's rehearsal dinner.
The appearance of Karlie Kloss turned heads, with the former Victoria's Secret model - who's married to Josh Kushner, brother of Trump confidante and son-in-law Jared Kushner - marking a noteworthy appearance.
It follows a rumoured rift between the pair, with many speculating a fallout following Swift’s veiled lyrics and a lack of notable sightings in recent years.
