Watch: How Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce Celebrated Chiefs' Win Against the Raiders

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are keeping it 100 on the land, the sea, the sky—and at 1587 Prime.  

After the Kansas City Chiefs bested the Las Vegas Raiders in a whopping 31-0 defeat Oct. 19, the “Fate of Ophelia” singer joined the tight end, his teammates and members of the Chiefs training staff for a post-game celebration at Travis and Patrick Mahomes’ Kansas City steakhouse. 

In a photo Joann Jordan—wife to Chiefs trainer Rob Jordanshared on Instagram Oct. 19, Travis and Taylor enjoyed the company of the aforementioned couple as well as Chiefs’ marketing manager Atipa Mabonga at a table in Travis’ new restaurant. 

Travis, for his part, was all smiles in the selfie as he donned a sleek powdered blue polo, while Taylor smized for the camera, sporting Chiefs’ red and gold jewelry. 

The outing came after Grammy winner was joined by dad Scott Swift at Arrowhead Stadium to pledge allegiance to Travis’ team yet again. In photos shared to social media, the father-daughter duo were locked into the action, with Scott sporting a hat from Travis’ new American Eagle line.

And while Taylor has been more lowkey with her support of her guy on the Chiefs this football season—making very subtle appearances in suites at his games, she has never been more up front with how in love she is with her fiancé, to whom she announced her engagement in August. 

Indeed, Taylor recently detailed the moments leading up to Travis popping the question following the taping of her appearance on New Heights earlier that same month. 

“I think for Travis the podcast was just a distraction sort of ruse to keep me not looking out the windows of the house,” Taylor explained during her appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon Oct. 6. “There were black out drapes on every single window of the whole house. I was like, ‘He is so serious about this and I really appreciate that.’”

However, Taylor quickly realized that her appearance on Travis’ podcast alongside his brother Jason Kelce was just one domino that had to cascade in a line for her happily ever after. 

“Afterward, I realized he’s walking around nervous about the podcast,” Taylor recalled. “I’ve never seen this dude nervous.”

When Travis suggested having a glass of wine in the backyard of his Kansas City home, Taylor saw his proposal set up, and the sky has been opalite ever since. As she gushed, “It was the best possible case scenario.”

When is Taylor Swift going to marry Travis Kelce?

It's impossible to picture Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce getting married on a day that isn't laden with meaning for both—or at least for the bride.

"I love numerology. I love math stuff, I love dates," the renowned triskaidekaphile gushed on the Aug. 13 episode of New Heights, her unprecedented two-hour appearance on her fiancé's podcast dropping 13 days before they announced their engagement (but, according to Travis' dad, three days after they informed close friends and family of their new relationship status). "That stuff I find really fun."

Whether Travis, who's turning 36 Oct. 5, remains in the NFL after the 2025 season—the final year under his current contract—will also factor into choosing a wedding date. If he doesn’t retire, then theirs will be off-season nuptials, anytime between the Super Bowl in February and when training camp starts in July.

If Travis does hang up his helmet after his 13th season (whoa, OK, that's just weird), then he's free to tie the knot during Taylor's beloved month of October. Or any other time, though the scheduling picture will become clearer once fans know when—or if—Taylor announces a tour for The Life of a Showgirl. Her 12th studio album drops Oct. 3, and she usually shares tour plans within a month of a new album (as opposed to a "Taylor's version") release.

The Bachelorette Party

While Taylor is known for her infamous squad of friends, she admitted in October 2025 that she has yet to consider hosting a Bachelorette party.

"You would think that I had been that type of person who would have obsessed over the idea of a wedding my whole life," she admitted on Heart radio, "but I actually never thought about what I would ever do or what I would want—until I met the person."

"So, I haven't actually even thought about doing a hen do," she noted of the British version of a Bachelorette party. "This is the first time I have thought about that."

Plus, she added of her gal pals, "They're so fun but they're so busy."

The Dress

When Taylor picks out a white dress, it's going to be one to remember.

Minus the price tags on her designer ensembles and deceptively simple-looking jewelry, the singer's style is relatable-chic, so we're picturing classic-with-a-twist from the likes of Oscar de la Renta, Elie Saab, Louis Vuitton, Zuhair Murad or J. Mendel, all longtime favorite labels.

Then, after she takes her vows in an elegant gown, the 5-foot-10 bride will surely change into a party dress more conducive to dancing all night.

And we eagerly await to see her nods to something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue.

The Groom's Attire

Travis does fashion, too, so he is going to have fun with his wedding suit, whatever form it may take.

The fact that he wore shorts to propose (it was a sticky August in Kansas, people) prompted some online dares for him to also wear an elevated pair of short pants down the aisle. But that would be quite the subversive move and he likely doesn’t want to steal attention from the girl standing in a nice dress next to him.

Although, if showing off his knees was important to him…

Assuring that she did not have a tuxedo picked out for her future husband already, Taylor told Cosmopolitan in 2012, "I don't want him to wonder if it even matters if he's there."

The Guests

Family is everything to Taylor and Travis, so the VIPs automatically include their respective parents and brothers. Presumable best man Jason Kelce also shares at least two flower girl-age daughters, Wyatt and Elliotte, with wife Kylie Kelce—though depending on when the big day is, little sister Bennett could grow into the role as well. (Alas, baby Finnley will probably have to sleep this one out.)

We'll see which of Travis' Kansas City Chiefs teammates make the cut, but he was a groomsman at QB Patrick Mahomes' 2022 wedding to Brittany Mahomes, so at the very least one boy from the football team should be there. He also has a loyal coterie of pals he's been cultivating since his Cleveland Heights days, so that golf-and-beer-centric bachelor party is gonna be lit.

As for the bride, childhood bestie Abigail Anderson has remained a mainstay in Taylor's life. And, while her famed squad has evolved over the years, Selena Gomez is still in the inner sourdough-gifting circle, as are Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, despite rumors they've fallen out amid the actress' legal battle.

Not to mention, speaking of potential flower girls, Taylor is godmother to Blake and Ryan's daughters.

The Music

Addressing the band vs. DJ question, Travis said on the Sept. 17 episode of New Heights, "I think we're live music kind of people, you know?"

Ugh, we knew it, we're so on the same page.

And whether or not she takes the night off from performing, the bride has quite a few friends who know their way around a microphone. (We're especially looking at you, Haim.)

But Taylor joked it "would be hard to keep" Ed Sheeran from performing at her wedding. 

"It's like, 'Ed, if there's a stage, you know that you'll be on it,'" she said during her Hits Radio interview in October 2025. "He knows what people want and he wants to give people what they want."

The Rings

Taylor may love Travis so much she'd marry him with paper rings, but that won't be the case.

Once again, if he keeps playing, he may have one of those sporty flexible wedding bands in rotation, but otherwise the scene has been set with the Old Mine Brilliant Cut diamond—by Kindred Lubeck of Artifex Fine Jewelry—that Travis picked out for his fiancée.

The engagement ring features an elongated center diamond flanked on each side by smaller diamonds, all set in custom-engraved yellow gold—and a perfect match for the $27,300 Cartier watch Taylor was wearing when he proposed.

Head Count

Just how massive will this white veil occasion be?

Avowed Swiftie Nikki Glaser predicted a "big" wedding, telling E! News at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards, "It has to be. It's all been leading to this."

At the same time, the comedian reasoned, since Taylor "gets to be a bride every day," attention-wise, the wedding will likely be as private as humanly possible.

“She just wants to celebrate with all her family and friends, and she's got a lot of them," Nikki noted. "I look forward to the helicopter photos that will ruin her day somehow by hovering above."

Once the newlyweds have driven off into the sunset, however, there's no universe in which Taylor doesn’t start sharing scenes from her big day with her devoted fans.
