Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce tied the knot on July 3 at New York's Madison Square Garden in a wedding that turned heads even by celebrity standards. USA Today reported that guests had a chance to win a Chanel or Dior saddle bag in a raffle — luxury prizes that set the tone for the entire event.
The A-list guest list included Selena Gomez, Hugh Grant, Jason Sudeikis, Dakota Johnson, and Patrick Mahomes, according to Yahoo News. Custom napkins embroidered with the couple's T&T crest and the wedding date were among the personal touches on display.
Luxury Raffle Bags Steal the Spotlight
The raffle was one of the night's most talked-about moments. Female guests competed for a chance to walk away with a Chanel or Dior saddle bag, according to USA Today. These bags can retail for thousands of dollars each, making them among the most extravagant wedding favors in recent memory.
Male guests were not left out either. Yahoo News reported that men received their own gifts at the event, though details on those items were not fully disclosed. The raffle added a game-show energy to what was already a star-studded night.
Madison Square Garden Becomes a Wedding Venue
Choosing Madison Square Garden as a wedding venue is no small statement. The iconic New York arena typically hosts NBA games, boxing matches, and concerts. Swift herself has performed there multiple times during her Eras Tour.
The Oak Ridger noted that the July 3 date gave the celebration a patriotic edge, falling just one day before Independence Day. The venue and timing together made the event feel less like a traditional wedding and more like a cultural moment.
Celebrity Guest List Reads Like an Awards Show
The attendees were a mix of Swift's longtime friends and Kelce's NFL world. Selena Gomez, one of Swift's closest friends, was present. So were actors Hugh Grant and Dakota Johnson, and comedian Jason Sudeikis, according to Yahoo News.
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes also attended, representing the NFL side of the couple's world. Kelce and Mahomes have won multiple Super Bowls together. The mix of entertainment and sports royalty in one room underlined just how high-profile this union has become.
Custom Details Made the Night Personal
Beyond the luxury prizes, the couple focused on personal touches throughout the evening. The napkins were custom-made and embroidered with the T&T crest — a monogram combining their shared initials — along with the date and location of the wedding, according to USA Today.
Those kinds of details signal that Swift and Kelce, despite the massive scale of the event, wanted guests to feel the night was carefully crafted. Madison Square Garden holds roughly 20,000 people for concerts, making the intimate personal touches all the more striking.
