Wedding Planning Details
Travis Kelce recently shared insights into the wedding planning process. On "New Heights," he told Jimmy Fallon that he and Taylor Swift are leaning towards live music for their reception. With the Kansas City steakhouse venture with Patrick Mahomes now established, Kelce stated that wedding planning is his "number one priority," adding, "That one is gonna be easy, I just have to figure out how to win a football game first." Swift has not publicly addressed the engagement since her initial announcement, but Kelce's comments offer a glimpse into their preparations.
Kansas City's "Enchanted" Celebration
The city of Kansas City is celebrating the engagement with an elaborate corn maze located on a farm in Belton, Missouri. Precision Mazes carved the design into a 9-acre cornfield at Johnson Farms Plants & Pumpkins. The design features an image of Swift and Kelce embracing, along with two intertwined rings displaying Kelce's jersey number, 87, and Swift's lucky number, 13.
The maze also incorporates the phrase "Kansas City is Enchanted," a nod to Swift's hit song "Enchanted". Since they began dating in 2023, Swift has become a familiar face at Arrowhead Stadium, enthusiastically supporting Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs.

The couple also shared photos of the proposal, which took place at Kelce's home, showcasing a flower-filled setting and a close-up of Swift's engagement ring.
Speaking to Erin Andrews of NFL on FOX, Kelce described the proposal as emotional, admitting to "a few tears." He said, "She has brought excitement and a joy for life that made me a better man, made me a better person, and made me just that much more comfortable in who I am."
Looking Ahead: A Private Affair
