While it may be the American equivalent of royalty, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce won’t be having a Royal Wedding.

Last month Swift and Kelce finally announced their long-expected engagement following two years of dating. Speculation quickly turned to what kind of wedding the two are going to have. But unlike Jeff Bezos or England’s Prince William, Swift and Kelce don’t appear interested in inviting the biggest celebrities in the world to see them tie the knot.

According to PEOPLE, a source close to the situation informed them that they intend to make it “a private affair” rather than a grand spectacle. The two will be inviting their closest circle of friends but will otherwise be expecting privacy.

“It will definitely be a private affair and not a spectacle,” the source told PEOPLE. “They both have a close circle of friends, and they’ll respect their privacy.”

The source added that Swift is “incredibly happy” with how things are going and that the entire situation has been “just perfect.”

“She’s incredibly happy,” the source said. “It’s all just perfect.”

Kelce in Week 1

It was a rough opening game for Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs as they began their conference title defense. They played the rival Los Angeles Chargers in Brazil, where they lost 27-21.

Kelce had a much better game than last year’s Super Bowl, reeling in two receptions for 47 yards and the team’s lone touchdown reception.

But that may be small comfort as the team lost a winnable match in the first game of what may be Kelce’s final NFL season.

The Swift-Kelce relationship

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s romance sparked in July 2023, when the Chiefs tight end tried (and failed) to give her a friendship bracelet at an Eras Tour stop—then talked about it on his podcast, which eventually led them to connect. Swift soon became a fixture at Chiefs games and famously joined Kelce on the field after Kansas City’s overtime win in Super Bowl LVIII in February 2024; a few months later, Kelce made a playful on-stage cameo during Swift’s London show at Wembley.

On August 26, 2025, they announced their engagement, and reporting since has emphasized they’re savoring the moment rather than rushing into wedding planning. Through busy NFL seasons and a globe-spanning tour, they’ve consistently shown up for each other, turning a private connection into a very public—and mutually supportive—partnership.
