Travis Kelce has shared a glimpse into his wedding preparations with Taylor Swift during a chat with Jimmy Fallon on the New Heights podcast.

When the Tonight Show host asked about their entertainment choices for the big day, the NFL star revealed they're going with live performers rather than a DJ.


"Yeah, I think we're live music kind of people, you know?" the 35-year-old Chiefs tight end explained to Fallon during Wednesday's episode.

The revelation came as Fallon pressed for wedding planning details, asking whether the recently engaged couple had started making decisions about their upcoming nuptials.

When asked about wedding planning progress, Kelce admitted the ceremony preparations would have to wait.

"That one's going to be easy, I've just got to figure out how to win a football game first," he told Fallon.

"The wedding's going to be easy compared to trying to f***ing catch a goddamn football!"

His comments come after Kansas City's tough start to the season, with the team sitting at 0-2 following another defeat where Kelce's dropped pass proved costly. The Chiefs face the Giants in New York this weekend.

Swift attended the team's recent home game at Arrowhead Stadium, though she kept a low profile by arriving behind screens and skipping her usual VIP suite spot.

While the couple keeps most wedding details under wraps, speculation points to next summer in Rhode Island as a possible time and place.
