Every Single Detail We Know About Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's Wedding So Far
Long before they even entered their engaged era, fans have feverishly speculated what Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's wedding could look like. Now, after hard-launching their engagement on August 26, we finally have an idea of what their nuptials—which many are already dubbing the celebrity wedding of the decade—might entail. Although Swift has notoriously kept a tight lip about her previous relationships, sharing details almost primarily through her music, she's been notably more open about her romance with the NFL tight end. And since they've officially embarked on their wedding planning journey, they aren't shying away from sharing a few tidbits and Easter eggs about the highly-anticipated event.
So, where will Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's wedding take place? And who's going to attend the high-profile event? Here, we break down everything we know about the couple's big day.
Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's Wedding Details We Know So Far
If you're anything like the editors at The Knot, you've probably been feverishly scouring the internet for any crumb of information you can find about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding. Not to worry: Since it's literally our job to track what many are calling the "American royal wedding," we've put together a comprehensive deep dive into every single detail we know about the Kelce-Swift nuptials.
A Live Band Is Their Must-Hire Vendor
Travis Kelce's first major wedding announcement dropped on the September 17 episode of his podcast, New Heights. Guest host Jimmy Fallon asked the athlete if he and Swift started planning following their August 26 engagement announcement. "Are you gonna do DJ or band? Are you thinking about all this stuff?" he said. Kelce confirmed, saying that he and his fiancée are already aligned on the entertainment. "Yeah, I think we're live music kind of people, you know?" In response, Fallon praised Kelce's karaoke and performing skills and asked his brother, Jason, if the revelation came as a surprise. "I've seen these [moves] all growing up. He's always had this in his bag," Jason said. "He's been a man of entertainment since the beginning. So this is not surprising."
While there's no word yet on which band the famous couple will be hiring, they'll have to share the spotlight with Ed Sheeran. During an October 3 interview with BBC Radio 1 Breakfast on the press tour for The Life of a Showgirl, Swift revealed that her longtime pal—whose hits make up some of the most popular first dance songs in the US, according to our data—will likely take a turn on the stage. "I mean, it would be hard to keep him from it I think!" Swift said. "That's the thing, he's like, 'I'm always being asked to sing at weddings' and you're like, 'Ed if there's a stage you know that you'll be on it!'"
Kelce Expects Wedding Planning To Be "Easy" Compared to Playing Football
During the same New Heights episode, Fallon passed along some wedding advice he learned from marrying his wife, Nancy Juvonen. "Don't stress about it," the comedian said. "I remember thinking about it with my wife." Kelce quickly interjected to say that he doesn't foresee wedding planning stress to become an issue: "That one's gonna be easy. I just gotta figure out how to win a football game first." (It was a cheeky nod to his rough start to the Chiefs' 2025-2026 NFL season, which began with two straight losses.) "The wedding will be easy compared to how to f—ing catch a God d— football," he added.
"Swiftonomics" Could Impact the Future of the Wedding Industry
The Taylor Swift effect is real, and our team expects that Swiftonomics—the term coined to describe the singer's impact on the economy—will also influence the wedding industry. The Knot created financial models to predict how Swiftonomics might affect future weddings, and our results speculate that approximately $2.2 billion in net new spend from couples worldwide could emerge over the next two years.
Beyond the financial component, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding will be a celebrity affair that defines trends and aesthetics for generations, similar to royal weddings like Kate Middleton and Prince William's and Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's. Swift's wedding dress will likely inspire countless dupes, and their venue selection could promote a boost in tourism for their chosen destination, much like her Eras Tour stops did. Beyond that, we have no doubt that fans and to-be-weds will dissect all the details we get from the wedding—from the numerology to the aesthetics to the florals and the food—and catapult them into mainstream popularity.
It May Take Place in Rhode Island
During her Life of a Showgirl press tour, Swift confirmed to BBC Radio 1 Breakfast that she and Kelce are planning a "destination wedding." While there's no word on whether it will be an international or domestic affair, early speculation indicates that her famous Rhode Island mansion could be a top contender. While the $17.5 million oceanfront home in the exclusive Watch Hill neighborhood has been the setting for quite a few raucous Fourth of July parties, it may be the place she and Kelce tie the knot too. That is, at least, according to a source who spoke to Page Six in September 2025. "They are getting married next summer in Rhode Island," the insider told the publication. If they do choose to exchange vows in the Ocean State, they already have Governor Dan McKee's stamp of approval. "Rhode Island has some of the best wedding venues in the world, just saying," he said in a repost of the couple's engagement announcement.
Should the iconic Holiday House mansion (which she sings about in Folklore's "The Last Great American Dynasty") be the setting of the most anticipated wedding of the decade, we have a feeling it may impact future wedding venue trends. According to The Knot 2025 Real Weddings Study, just 4% of couples who got married last year said they hosted their nuptials at their home, while 4% said it took place at a beach house. But, given the aforementioned impact of Swiftonomics on the wedding industry, we predict that both of these venues could spike in popularity if Swift and Kelce pioneer the trend.
They'll Likely Have a Star-Studded Guest List
Although we haven't gotten a peek at Swift and Kelce's wedding guest list, we'd dare to say it'll be full of A-listers, including her bestie Selena Gomez and her husband-to-be, Benny Blanco. (We can't forget that Swift offered to be their flower girl when they hard-launched their engagement news on Instagram in December 2024.) Other famous friends like Ed Sheeran, Zoe Kravitz, Sophie Turner and Kane Brown are likely additions. We also predict that Swift's longtime friends outside of the spotlight, like Abigail Anderson and Ashley Avignone, will be included too.
We can't forget Kelce's tight-knit crew either. Not only have his childhood friends become close pals of Swift once they began dating, Kelce served as a groomsman for his teammate Patrick Mahomes when he married his wife, Brittany—so there's a good chance the Chiefs QB will return the favor. We also know that the couple is incredibly close with their families, so Scott, Andrea and Austin Swift will likely hold special roles, along with Ed and Donna Kelce, as well as Jason and Kylie Kelce. On her New Heights podcast episode, Swift opened up about the close bond she's forged with Jason and Kylie's daughters, Wyatt, Elliotte, Bennett and Finnley, so the youngest Kelces could serve as flower girls too.
