Taylor Swift Reveals She Never Pictured Her Own Wedding
On October 3, 2025, only a few weeks after they had gotten engaged, Swift told Heart Radio that she had never pictured her own wedding until things started to get serious with Kelce.
“You would think that I had been the type of person who would have obsessed over the idea of a wedding my whole life, but I actually never thought about what I would ever do or what I would want until I met the person.”
That same day, she said that Travis “crushed it when it came to surprising” her on The Graham Norton Show. “We had actually filmed a podcast episode — he has a podcast called New Heights — so we filmed the podcast for about three or four hours … and meanwhile behind his house, he was having the whole back garden turned into this.”
“And one of the things that he put in there, very strategically, was a wall of hedges that weren’t there before. And inside the hedges was my tour photographer hiding in bushes that had not previously been there,” she continued, adding, “He went all out — 10 out of 10.”
The couple announced their engagement in a joint Instagram post on August 26, 2025. Alongside photos of the garden proposal, Swift wrote, “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.”
