Taylor Swift found her happily ever after.

Another A-list star served as the officiant for the couple's wedding. "The ceremony joined both families together and was officiated by friend Adam Sandler," reps confirmed to People magazine.
Sandler and Kelce bonded after the tight end appeared in "Happy Gilmore 2," and later on the Kelce brother's podcast, "New Heights."
"He was so cool, he was just like you (Jason Kelce), just like you when you took over with announcing. You guys just go, ‘All right if I’m doing this I might as well be great at this,’" Sandler said last year.
"Anyways, yeah you were cool as s---, Travis was locked in, he kind of had to be a bad guy, he was just there."
Swift and Kelce did not have bridesmaids or groomsmen for their big day, according to the statement shared with the outlet. The pop star's brother, Austin Swift, was her "Man of Honor" and Kelce's brother, Jason, was the NFL player's "Best Man."
As for what the bride and groom wore, the statement noted that the "ceremony looks have been created by Christian Dior Haute Couture. They are designed by Jonathan Anderson, Creative Director of Dior Women’s, Men’s and Haute Couture Collections, in close collaboration with the Bride and Groom. This is the designer's first couture wedding dress for a world-renowned celebrity. Their shoes were custom-made by Christian Louboutin and the bride wore Cartier jewelry."
Swift's notoriously private about her relationships, and while their exact timeline is unclear, she was first spotted at a Chiefs game Sept. 24, 2023.
She revealed in an interview with Time magazine that they actually began dating long before she appeared in the stands.
"This all started when Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast, which I thought was metal as hell," she said. "We started hanging out right after that. So, we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I’m grateful for, because we got to get to know each other.
"By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple."
In July 2023, Kelce joked on his "New Heights" podcast that he missed the opportunity to give Swift a friendship bracelet in person when The Eras Tour rolled through Kansas City.
"If you’re up on Taylor Swift concerts, there are friendship bracelets, and I received a bunch of them being there, but I wanted to give Taylor Swift one with my (phone) number on it," Kelce told his brother, Jason.

Swift and Kelce appeared on his podcast Aug. 13, 2025, and they shared more details of how they met.
When asked why she chose to appear on the podcast, she joked, "This podcast got me a boyfriend ever since Travis decided to use it as his personal dating app.
"This dude didn't get a meet-and-greet, and he's making it everyone's problem. That's what I thought at first. ... You realize he didn't even reach out to our management. He came with Pat [Mahomes], and he thought that, because he knows the elevator lady, that he could talk to her about just getting down to my dressing room."

Kelce admitted Swift's music actually gave him a roadmap on how to win her over.
"I was sitting there at the Eras Tour listening to every single one of those songs being like, ‘I know exactly what she wants me to do,'" he said. "I'm the luckiest man in the world."
Thirteen days after the "New Heights" podcast episode featuring Swift dropped, the two announced their engagement on Instagram.
"Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married," Swift wrote, sharing photos of Kelce down on one knee during the intimate moment.
