Brady wedding planned in 10 days

American football star Tom Brady has said his wedding to supermodel Gisele Bundchen earlier this year was planned in 10 days.

In February, the New England Patriots quarterback married 29-year-old Gisele in a private ceremony in Santa Monica, California. Only their parents and his baby son from a previous relationship were present for the couple's big day.

He told GQ: "We planned [the wedding] in like ten days, and it was perfect. We went back to the house and I barbecued aged New York strips. We had champagne, a cake, some ice cream. It was a great night."

"I think you always have this idea that weddings need to be 200 people and you invite everybody, and I'm all for it if people want to do that, but I think there was really something special about just having our parents there."

The 32-year-old, who also had an extended reception in Costa Rica, added: "It's nothing personal against anybody but it's not about them. It's about what you and your wife need for that day."

Tom and Gisele recently confirmed that their first child is expected to be born in December.
