Adam Sandler's co-star has defended his role in Taylor Swift's wedding.

The 59-year-old actor officiated the wedding of his Happy Gilmore 2 co-star Travis Kelce and Opalite singer Taylor at Madison Square Garden in New York earlier this month, and while some people were perplexed at the news, Sandler's Click co-star Jana Kramer believes he was the perfect choice.

Speaking on her Whine Down podcast, Kramer, 42, said: "Everyone was like, 'Oh, that's an interesting choice'. I will say [on] the Adam Sandler piece of things, I met him a million years ago. I did that movie Click with him.

"It almost does make sense to me now because he does have that sentimental [personality] like, he's just such a sweet man.

"He really is, and he's a good man. So I could see him being really funny, but then also really grounded and sentimental. He is very intentional when he speaks [and is] soft-spoken."

Sandler and his wife Jackie, 51, recently celebrated their own 23rd wedding anniversary.

Meanwhile, the Wedding Singer actor "said yes right away" when Travis and Taylor, both 36, asked him to officiate their star-studded nuptials.

A source added to PEOPLE: "He wasn't trying to find the perfect words or make it this big production. He just wanted to speak from the heart and pass along a little wisdom that he's gained from his own happy marriage."

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid, previously revealed that Sandler was "phenomenal" and "did a great job" marrying the couple".

He told The Deseret News: "Adam Sandler did the ceremony there, so he mentioned, 'Kiss her every chance you have.' So I think that, in its own simple way, that's a pretty good message. Kiss her before bed, kiss her before you go to work, all those things. It's hard to argue when you're kissing somebody.

"He even mentioned that if maybe you did have a small argument, to finish it with a kiss and make sure that you work it out. And as simple as that is, I thought it was wise words."

Sandler has previously spoken of his friendship with both Travis and Taylor, telling Entertainment Tonight: "He's such a gentle, nice guy, and funny as hell.

"He's like the guys I grew up with. When I was with Travis, it reminded me of my buddies in high school and just being able to laugh and say the things you want to say.

"Taylor is incredible. Taylor is so damn nice to my family and has always been. My kids have met Taylor a bunch of times over the years, and she's ridiculously nice to them and warm."
