Andy Reid Shares If He'll Attend Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift Wedding
Andy Reid is ready to touchdown at Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's wedding.
The Kansas City Chiefs head coach weighed in on the couple’s upcoming nuptials and whether or not he’s received an invite.
"I probably have," Andy teased during a May 14 appearance on Kansas City sports radio's 96.5 The Fan."If I don't outgrow my tuxedo before then, I'm going."
The 68-year-old emphasized that he's "so happy" for the couple to tie the knot.
"When [it] really comes down to it, it doesn't matter how big the show is around them," he added. "They're in love and that's the most important thing."
And while Andy has coached Travis throughout his entire NFL career, his ties to Taylor's family started long before the couple's romance. After all, Taylor previously revealed that Andy and her dad Scott Swift are longtime friends, sharing her many "positive" encounters with the football coach over the years.
"I didn’t really know what the sports were that he was doing but I knew that that was my dad’s friend Andy Reid," she recalled on an August episode of Travis' New Heights podcast. "I now know that he is the most iconic, legendary coach of all time."
In fact, just a few weeks before Taylor and Travis, both 36, announced their engagement on Aug. 26, Andy was already looking ahead to the couple's possible nuptials, revealing which anecdote about the tight end he'd share in a potential wedding speech.
"Well, there are a few I can’t tell,” he joked during an Aug. 7 appearance on 96.5 The Fan. “I mean he’s done so many good things—all the things he does off the field people don’t know about, just helping people out. He’s got a big heart that way. I appreciate that the most.”
And he was equally full of praise after learning that Travis had popped the question to Taylor.
"I’m happy for them,” he said in an Aug. 29 interview. "It's hard to find somebody that you fall in love with. That’s not an easy thing, to really fall in love. And it seems like they’re there. I think it’s a great deal for both of them.”
“They like being around each other,” Andy—who has been married to his wife Tammy Reid since 1981—added. “That’s a plus, I think. They’re both busy people in their own right. Both are very famous in their own right. It’s kinda neat that they come together and handle themselves the way they do.”
To learn all of the enchanting details about Travis and Taylor's big day, read on ...
It's impossible to picture Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce getting married on a day that isn't laden with meaning for both—or at least for the bride.
"I love numerology. I love math stuff, I love dates," the renowned triskaidekaphile gushed on the Aug. 13 episode of New Heights, her unprecedented two-hour appearance on her fiancé's podcast dropping 13 days before they announced their engagement (but, according to Travis' dad, three days after they informed close friends and family of their new relationship status). "That stuff I find really fun."
Travis' decision to play in the NFL for at least one more season also affects the game plan, as they've got from now until July before training camp starts.
Not that the Kansas City Chiefs tight end couldn't carve out time to swap vows during Taylor's beloved month of October, but "during the bye week" doesn't have the same ring to it as a more leisurely stretch of time.
While Taylor is known for having a celebrity-heavy squad, she admitted in October 2025 that she had yet to consider any bachelorette party plans.
"You would think that I had been that type of person who would have obsessed over the idea of a wedding my whole life," she said on the U.K.'s Heart Breakfast, "but I actually never thought about what I would ever do or what I would want—until I met the person."
"So, I haven't actually even thought about doing a hen do," she noted, invoking the British slang. "This is the first time I have thought about that."
Plus, she added of her gal pals, "They're so fun but they're so busy."
When Taylor picks out a white dress, it's going to be one to remember.
Minus the price tags on her designer ensembles and deceptively simple-looking jewelry, the singer's style is relatable-chic, so we're picturing classic-with-a-twist from the likes of Oscar de la Renta, Elie Saab, Louis Vuitton, Zuhair Murad or J. Mendel, all longtime favorite labels.
Then, after she takes her vows in an elegant gown, the 5-foot-10 bride will surely change into a party dress more conducive to dancing all night.
And we eagerly await to see her nods to something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue.
But no less a wedding dress authority than Vera Wang predicted multiple looks and that Taylor "will be in lace of some sort.”
Travis does fashion, too, so he is going to have fun with his wedding suit, whatever form it may take.
The fact that he wore shorts to propose (it was a sticky August in Kansas, people) prompted some online dares for him to also wear an elevated pair of short pants down the aisle. But that would be quite the subversive move and he likely doesn’t want to steal attention from the girl standing in a nice dress next to him.
Although, if showing off his knees was important to him…
Assuring that she did not have a tuxedo picked out for her future husband already, Taylor told Cosmopolitan in 2012, "I don't want him to wonder if it even matters if he's there."
Family is everything to Taylor and Travis, so the VIPs automatically include their respective parents and brothers. Presumable best man Jason Kelce also shares at least two flower girl-age daughters, Wyatt and Elliotte, with wife Kylie Kelce—though depending on when the big day is, little sister Bennett could grow into the role as well. (Alas, baby Finnley will probably have to sleep this one out.)
We'll see which of Travis' teammates make the cut, but he was a groomsman at Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes' 2022 wedding to Brittany Mahomes, so at the very least one boy from the football team should be there, in addition to coach Andy Reid. He also has a loyal coterie of pals he's been cultivating since his Cleveland Heights days, so that golf-and-beer-centric bachelor party is gonna be lit.
As for the bride, childhood bestie Abigail Anderson has remained a mainstay in Taylor's life. And, while her famed squad has evolved over the years, Selena Gomez is still in the inner sourdough-gifting circle.
It also isn't hard to picture someone close to the couple getting ordained and officiating the ceremony, though we aren't laying money on Flavor Flav.
And, add it to the list, someone keep an eye on Niall Horan's travel plans this spring.
Addressing the band vs. DJ question, Travis said on the Sept. 17 episode of New Heights, "I think we're live music kind of people, you know?"
Ugh, we knew it, we're so on the same page.
And whether or not she takes the night off from performing, the bride has quite a few friends who know their way around a microphone.
We're especially looking at you, Haim, but, as Taylor joked, it "would be hard to keep" Ed Sheeran from performing at her wedding.
"It's like, 'Ed, if there's a stage, you know that you'll be on it,'" she said during her Hits Radio interview in October 2025. "He knows what people want and he wants to give people what they want."
Taylor may love Travis so much she'd marry him with paper rings, but that won't be the case.
For game days, he may have one of those sporty flexible wedding bands in rotation, but otherwise the scene has been set with the Old Mine Brilliant Cut diamond—by Kindred Lubeck of Artifex Fine Jewelry—that Travis picked out for his fiancée.
The engagement ring features an elongated center diamond flanked on each side by smaller diamonds, all set in custom-engraved yellow gold—and a perfect match for the $27,300 Cartier watch Taylor was wearing when he proposed.
Just how massive will this white veil occasion be?
Taylor indicated on The Graham Norton Show in October that she didn't want the stress of having to cut names from the guest list, explaining that whittling it down meant having to "evaluate or assess your relationship" with people.
And, she added, "I'm not gonna do that."
Avowed Swiftie Nikki Glaser predicted a "big" wedding, telling E! News at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards, "It has to be. It's all been leading to this."
At the same time, the comedian reasoned, since Taylor "gets to be a bride every day," attention-wise, the wedding will likely be as private as humanly possible.
“She just wants to celebrate with all her family and friends, and she's got a lot of them," Nikki noted. "I look forward to the helicopter photos that will ruin her day somehow by hovering above."
Once the newlyweds have driven off into the sunset, however, there's no universe in which Taylor doesn’t start sharing scenes from her big day with her devoted fans.
