Donna

AS the weekend draws to a close, more details of the celebrity wedding of the decade have been spilled – this time by the mother-of-the-groom.

Taylor Swift‘s new mother-in-law Donna Kelce has spoken about her son’s wedding to the global pop sensation, which took place on Friday.

The mum of Travis Kelce admitted she can’t reveal too much, but offered a glimpse into the Madison Square Garden nuptials that unfolded in New York City.

Speaking to Macy’s during their 50th Fourth of July Celebration, Donna, 73 said: “I really can’t say a heck of a lot except it was magical, man!

“Magical!” she then repeated, as she burst out into a smile, clearly having fond memories of her son and superstar daughter-in-law’s special day.

Guests have been totally tight-lipped since the ceremony, which saw them asked to sign NDAs ahead of the blockbuster event, which was attended by 1,000 guests.

In further new details, the reception is said to have turned into a “game’s night” of sorts in the evening, with guests taking home luxury raffle prizes.

Among the party favours were Cartier watches and designer handbags, as reported by TMZ.

The biggest prize up for grabs, however, was a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle with the license plate “JUST&T MRD”, according to an insider. The classic car is a replica of the one they were spotted in on their first date.

The source revealed that guests “were invited to play games throughout the evening, earning raffle tickets for a chance to win an array of prizes.”

After 16 full-length albums, a batch of brutal breakups, and a record-breaking world tour, Taylor, 36, locked down her prince charming in what guests have called a “deeply moving” ceremony just 10 months after the couple announced their engagement in August 2025.

The pair chose actor-comedian Adam Sandler to officiate the proceedings while also ditching the traditional bridesmaids and groomsmen.

Instead, members of their families were by their sides with the groom’s brother and former Philadelphia Eagles star Jason Kelce as best man and Taylor’s brother Austin as her man of honor.

The news of this detail quashed fan speculation about who might be chosen to assist the bride down the aisle, such as Selena Gomez and Gigi Hadid.

Eagle-eyed Swifties also thought they had caught a glimpse of the bridemaids dresses when Taylor’s childhood best friend, Abigail Anderson, and Laura Kruk, the fiancée of New York Giants wide receiver Juju Smith-Schuster, stepped out in the same $795 gown, but it seems this was purely coincidence.

In another unusual wedding detail, Swift reportedly walked down the aisle to a strings rendition of one of her own songs while Jason and Kylie Kelce’s daughters scattered petals.

At around 7:30pm, Travis, 36, and Taylor’s marriage was confirmed with huge purple screens reading “JUST&T MARRIED!” lit up outside Madison Square Garden, roughly an hour after Taylor’s SUV was spotted pulling into the venue.

Both the bride and groom were dressed in Christian Dior, it was later confirmed by Taylor’s PR.

Norton was photographed with his husband Jono McLeod at JFK Airport. Swift previously noted while appearing on his show that she planned to invite him to the big day. Asked by the host when the wedding would be, she said: “Oh, you’ll know. I was going to invite you to it.”

Waller-Bridge was also spotted in the city. She and Swift have been known to socialise together., external Waller-Bridge was among the attendees at Swift’s Eras Tour in London in 2024, and hosted US sketch show Saturday Night Live in 2019 when Swift was the musical guest.

Donna Kelce was also spotted disembarking a flight into JFK airport by tabloid reporters but didn’t answer questions about the rumoured wedding festivities or how her son is feeling.

Jack Antonoff, a close friend and frequent creative collaborator of Taylor’s, was also seen out Thursday evening, donning a suit. As was her close friend singer Selena Gomez, who posted to social media a video of herself in a black gown and diamond earrings in the back of a vehicle.

Singers Dua Lipa, Camila Cabello and close pal Sabrina Carpenter were also spotted recently, along with actress Anya Taylor-Joy.

Longtime friend Ed Sheeran and Swift collaborator Aaron Dessner were spotted together in upstate New York sharing a meal at a restaurant.

NFL San Francisco 49ers player George Kittle, singer Benson Boone and English actress Suki Waterhouse are among other celebrities reportedly attending the wedding.

Swift’s childhood friend Abigail Anderson Berard, who has been in multiple Swift music videos, is also expected to be there. It is unknown if actress Blake Lively, who drew Swift into a bitter legal battle with Lively’s It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni, will be invited. The case was settled in May.

Props including a grand piano, carpets and a box of mirror balls have been seen being taken into the arena, while “no parking” signs have been placed around the vicinity.

A forklift truck operator has also been spotted wearing a Swift t-shirt while working at the venue.

Neither Swift nor Kelce has confirmed details of the wedding. The BBC has contacted their representatives.

However, the couple announced on Thursday that they had donated $26 million (£19.5 million) to charities in the US, including food banks, children’s hospitals and Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.
