Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are currently reveling in their engagement, but reports indicate that wedding planning has not yet begun. The couple, both aged 35, announced their engagement on August 26, 2023, through a series of joyful photos shared on Swift’s Instagram. The proposal took place in Kelce’s home garden in Lee’s Summit, Missouri, featuring a beautiful floral arrangement.
A source close to the couple shared with People that they are still in a celebratory phase. “Taylor and Travis have been in celebration mode ever since the engagement,” the source stated. They added, “They are not in the wedding planning phase yet. Right now, they just want to enjoy being engaged, and they are going to take their time with it.” The couple is reportedly relieved to share their news publicly after keeping it a secret for some time.
Swift’s announcement came nearly two years after their relationship became public in September 2023. In her Instagram post, she humorously captioned the images with, “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.”
The details of the proposal were also revealed by Travis’ father, Ed Kelce. He shared on The Jimmy and Nath Show with Emma podcast that the engagement occurred almost two weeks prior to the announcement. According to Ed, Travis suggested they enjoy a glass of wine in the garden before heading out for dinner. As they approached the patio, Swift noticed the abundance of flowers, hinting that something special was about to happen. Ed expressed his happiness for the couple, stating, “These are two young people madly in love with each other, and I think this is great.”
The couple’s families are also embracing this significant moment. Travis’ mother, Donna Kelce, who has another son, Jason Kelce, with Ed, is already preserving mementos from the engagement. A source mentioned that she is “saving little things from this time like photos, notes, and flowers” as she cherishes every detail of this new chapter in her son’s life.
As Swift and Kelce continue to bask in their engagement, they have chosen to take their time in planning their future together, focusing on enjoying their relationship and the love they share.
