Taylor Swift’s massive wedding to Travis Kelce is the hottest event of the summer — and we finally know the lucky ones who were invited to attend the bash at Madison Square Garden on July 3.
To no one’s surprise, the big spectacle was jam-packed with all kinds of musicians, from Swift’s close collaborators Jack Antonoff and Aaron Dessner to her close friends in the music industry like Ed Sheeran, Selena Gomez, Paramore singer Hayley Williams, and the Haim sisters. Sombr, who the superstar has been cheering on, was also there to celebrate Swift.
Some of Swift’s closest friends were in attendance, including Abigail Andersen, Ashley Avignone, Gigi Hadid, Lena Dunham, and Zoë Kravitz. Karli Kloss attended with her husband Joshua Kushner, a surprise after rumours of a rift between her and Swift.
It’s clear the popstar hasn’t forgotten her country roots, either as several country music icons made it out to the big bash, including Brad Paisley, Miranda Lambert, Kelsea Ballerini, Rascal Flatts guitarist Joe Don Rooney, and Maren Morris.
Other musicians in attendance included Ellie Goulding, who flew in from London for the event, Camila Cabello, Machine Gun Kelly, the Chainsmokers, Lucy Dacus, and Benson Boone. Graham Norton, who notably appeared in Swift’s music video for “Opalite,” was in the crowd as well.
Beyond the music industry, Swift also made sure to invite celebrities she’s bonded with over the years, like Marisa Hargitay from Law & Order: SVU. Dakota Johnson, Julianne Moore, Ethan Hawke, Hugh Grant, Jason Sudeikis, Charlie Day, and Jessica Chastain added to the A-list hype. Golden Globes host Nikki Glaser, a longtime Swift fan, also scored an invite, as did The Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon. Saturday Night Live star Marcello Hernández attended with his girlfriend Ana Amelia Batlle.
Of course, several athletes were on Kelce’s side of the aisle, including his Kansas City Chiefs teammates and head coach Andy Reid. Other NFL players, including LA Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, were also there. Kelce brought sports broadcasters to the party in Erin Andrews and Greg Olsen, who are also retired NFL players. Abby Wambach, who attended with wife Glennon Doyle, represented soccer, while NFL commissioner Roger Goodell joined the festivities.

While the party was star-studded as is, there were even more folks invited. Harry Styles, Swift’s onetime muse and Kravitz’s current fiancé, couldn’t make it as he continues his Together, Together tour, per Variety. Prince William hinted at a desire for an invite in May, but made a surprise appearance on Kelce’s podcast New Heights instead.
Swift and Kelce’s wedding on Friday evening followed a much smaller rehearsal dinner on Thursday night. The dinner was attended by Antonoff, Dunham, Hadid, Cooper, and many of Swift’s close friends, including Anderson.
