The internet broke on August 26, 2025, when Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce announced their engagement in a joint Instagram post. Although fans had long been speculating that the couple was endgame, the casual Tuesday afternoon announcement surprised many supporters and skeptics alike.
People quickly started rattling off predictions for what has already been deemed the American Royal Wedding — and naturally, we had to join the fun! Keep reading for thirteen (duh) predictions for Taylor and Travis’s impending nuptials.
Winter Wedding
The first question on everyone’s mind: when will they get married (and how long do we have to wait)? We’re betting on December 2026.
We think the couple will take a few months to enjoy their engagement and savor Travis’s last NFL season before diving into wedding planning. Plus, it’s a well-known fact that Taylor is extremely fond of her birth month, so it makes sense to push it back to December. This also aligns well with the average engagement length of 15 months.
Intimate Venue
As for where they will get married, the sky’s the limit for this jet-setting couple. Here are a few of our top picks:
- Terrain at Styer’s: An ode to Taylor’s upbringing on a Pennsylvania Christmas tree farm and conveniently located near Travis’s brother in Philadelphia.
- Estelle: Nestled in Nashville, this historic venue offers a beautiful blend of rustic and romantic near where it all began for the mega popstar.
- Sotto 13: For a couple who loves to step out in NYC, this restaurant’s leather booths, low lighting, and lucky number 13 would be ideal.
Wherever they choose to tie the knot, it’s sure to be enchanted!
Romantic Details
Swift is the queen of Easter eggs, so you know the wedding will be chock-full of thoughtful nods to the couple’s past, present, and future.
Classic with a Twist
Taylor and Travis are both fashion icons in their own right. On their wedding day, we predict classic silhouettes with bold details and a little shimmer.
Handwritten Vows
Dear reader, we guarantee you won’t hear canned wedding vows at Miss Swift’s wedding. Her lyricism is sure to shine in her handwritten vows.
Private Ceremony
Although Taylor and Travis are surrounded by celebrities, they’re also family-oriented and fairly private as a couple. We think they’ll opt for a private ceremony with family and a few close friends instead of an A-list affair.
The Aisle
Before the couple promise to be together forever and always, we think Taylor will walk down the aisle with both of her parents. It’s clear how close she is with her mom, and it only makes sense to celebrate the best day hand-in-hand.
Lavish Party
After the ceremony, we bet they’ll throw a rager to celebrate their fairytale love story. Lots of dancing, photo ops, and maybe a surprise guest or two.
Signature Cocktail
Everyone loves a signature wedding cocktail. For Taylor and Travis, we think they’ll name a drink The Alchemy in honor of the mystical elements that brought them together.
Dessert Table
From homemade poptarts to sourdough loaves, Taylor is known for her love of baking. We predict there will be no shortage of sweets at this soiree.
Pet-Friendly Festivities
Long-time fans know how much Taylor adores her three cats — and Travis seems to, too. We think the couple will somehow include the pets in their wedding day. The trio could make an appearance as photo booth props, cake toppers, or on cocktail napkins.
Outfit Change
You know there will be multiple outfit changes during the reception! It might seem so high school, but we’d love to see the happy couple donning matching letterman jackets as they drive away in their getaway car.
Thoughtful Thank Yous
Taylor is considered to be a thoughtful and intentional friend. On her wedding day, we think she’ll go the extra mile with handwritten notes for each guest.
In all seriousness, we wish these new romantics a happy engagement and a wonderful life together!
