Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s star-studded wedding wasn’t just a celebration of adventure, it was also the ultimate giveaway event, with one incredibly lucky guest even walking away with their very own “getaway car.”
The 36-year-old Opalite singer and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end officially tied the knot in a spectacular ceremony at New York’s Madison Square Garden on July 3.
But while the high-profile nuptials were packed with emotional vows and A-list performances, it was the lavish reception games that really stole the show, with a high-stakes raffle awarding designer handbags and a pristine vintage 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle.
According to a report from NBC Newswho spoke to two unnamed wedding guests, the newlyweds kept their 1,000 attendees entertained for hours by hosting a series of party games.
Guests who prevailed in these games earned lottery tickets, giving them a chance to win the top prizes.
The vintage Chevrolet Chevelle raffle car has deep sentimental significance for the newlyweds, as it is the exact same make and model of the convertible that Kelce famously used to drive Swift away from her first ever Chiefs game in Kansas City back in September of 2023.
In addition to the exciting raffles, every element of the massive arena wedding was scaled to perfection.
Insiders told PEOPLE that the inside of Madison Square Garden was completely transformed to look like an enchanted forest, filled with real trees, lush ferns and white seat covers draped over the stadium seats.
Swift walked down a custom aisle to a center stage, where the couple read deeply personal 20-minute vows straight from golden books.
Anticipating that the emotional family reunion might overwhelm their guests, the couple thoughtfully left embroidered handkerchiefs on the seats for any happy tears.
After the ceremony, which was officiated by their close friend and Hollywood actor Adam Sandler, the bride’s mother invited the crowd into a heavily packed reception room equipped with food stations serving premium Italian cuisine, fresh sushi and bars scattered throughout the space.
The night doubled as an exclusive music festival, with show-stopping live sets from The Beatles the legend Paul McCartney who sang I want to hold your handalong with a performance by rock icon Stevie Nicks.
The bride and groom both wore custom Christian Dior Haute Couture designed by Jonathan Anderson, paired with Christian Louboutin shoes and Cartier jewelry for Swift.
Forgoing a traditional bridal shower, Taylor’s brother Austin Swift stepped up as her Man of Honor, while Jason Kelce took on Best Man duties.
