Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce tied the knot on Friday, July 3, in a private ceremony at New York's Madison Square Garden, choosing to break from tradition by having no bridesmaids or groomsmen. Instead, they gave key roles to their siblings: Swift's brother Austin Swift served as her Man of Honor, while Kelce's brother, former NFL star Jason Kelce, stood beside him as Best Man, according to PEOPLE magazine.
Private Ceremony with Close Family and Friends
The wedding was attended by family and close friends, with actor Adam Sandler officiating the ceremony, a representative for Swift confirmed. The couple's decision to forgo a traditional bridal party marked a significant departure from conventional wedding practices, focusing on immediate family members.
Madison Square Garden itself celebrated the occasion by displaying a special message on its giant screens immediately after the ceremony: "JusT&T Married," a nod to the couple's initials. According to PEOPLE, this custom display was a tribute to the recurring theme throughout their relationship. Kelce had previously created "TNT" friendship bracelets for the pair, and the couple also used the initials with a dynamite emoji when announcing their engagement on social media in August 2025.
Wedding Attire and Details
For their big day, Swift and Kelce wore custom Christian Dior Haute Couture designed by Jonathan Anderson, Creative Director of Dior Women's, Men's and Haute Couture Collections. Swift completed her bridal look with Cartier jewellery, and both wore custom Christian Louboutin shoes. The celebrations began a day earlier with an intimate rehearsal dinner at the venue's Infosys Theatre.
Swift's History as a Bridesmaid
While Swift chose not to have bridesmaids at her own wedding, she has previously served as a bridesmaid at the weddings of close friends, including Lena Dunham, childhood friend Abigail Anderson, and longtime friend Britany Maack, according to PEOPLE magazine.
Relationship Timeline
Swift and Kelce began dating in 2023 after the Kansas City Chiefs tight end revealed on his New Heights podcast that he had unsuccessfully tried to give Swift a friendship bracelet with his phone number during one of her Eras Tour concerts. Their relationship became public after Swift attended a Chiefs game later that year, and the couple have since frequently supported each other's careers. They announced their engagement in August 2025 via a joint Instagram post featuring Kelce's proposal.
