Current and former Kansas City Chiefs players flock to New York to celebrate Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s wedding
A look at Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce’s wedding, including some of the guests with Kansas City Chiefs ties confirmed to be in attendance.
After months of speculation, Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift were married on July 3, 2026, at New York City’s Madison Square Garden.
Swift’s longtime publicist, Tree Paine, issued an official statement confirming several details of the wedding in a press release:
“The bride and groom’s wedding 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.
“Taylor & Travis did not have bridesmaids or groomsmen. Instead, her brother Austin Swift served as Taylor’s Man of Honor and Jason Kelce was Travis’ Best Man. The ceremony joined both families together and was officiated by friend Adam Sandler.”

Everyone with ties to the Kansas City Chiefs confirmed to attend
With a venue like Madison Square Garden, the guest list was substantial. However, the couple still managed to make it an intimate event. Part of that was because of the people they invited. Travis, of course, was surrounded by his football family.
Chiefs head coach Andy Reid and his wife Tammy were spotted leaving MSG after the wedding. QB Patrick Mahomes was spotted in New York with his wife, Brittany, ahead of the wedding, but kept a low profile during it.
Defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo was seen in a cab at MSG. Kelce’s defensive teammates, DT Chris Jones and DE George Karlaftis, were photographed entering MSG.
Kelce also invited his teammates in the tight end room, Jared Wiley, Jake Briningstool, & Tre Watson, who posted a photo together on Instagram ahead of the event.
Former Chiefs players included TE Ross Travis, RT Mitchell Schwartz, RB Kareem Hunt, RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire, RB Isiah Pacheco, DT Khalen Saunders (and brother Kameron), CB Trent McDuffie, WR JuJu Smith-Schuster, and WR Mecole Hardman.
Chiefs chairman and CEO Clark Hunt attended alongside his wife, Tavia, and daughter Gracie.
