Engagements are always a time for celebration, and for Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift, the excitement has spread across both of their families. While the couple made their big announcement with a joint Instagram post earlier this week, Travis’s mom, Donna Kelce, has already taken things to heart in the sweetest way possible—by collecting keepsakes from these first moments of their engagement.
Donna’s Sentimental Collection
According to sources close to the family, Donna has begun holding onto little mementos like photos, flowers, and handwritten notes.
For her, these aren’t just items—they’re pieces of history she wants to preserve.
“She is very sentimental about it,” the insider shared. “She wants to remember every detail from their first days as an engaged couple.”
Her love and excitement even spilled over to social media.
Donna changed her Facebook background to a meme featuring childhood pictures of both Travis and Taylor with the caption: “THEY ARE GETTING MARRIED.”
It was a playful, heartwarming gesture that fans immediately embraced.
Dad Ed Reveals Proposal Details
Meanwhile, Travis’s dad, Ed Kelce, opened up about how the proposal went down.
He revealed that Travis originally planned to wait and create a grand, elaborate moment, but eventually decided not to overthink it.
“I told him you could do it anywhere—even on the side of the road—as long as you get down on one knee,” Ed shared with News 5 Cleveland.
In the end, Travis popped the question just before dinner one evening, after suggesting they grab a glass of wine.
The moment was made even more special when they FaceTimed both sets of parents to share the news instantly.
Celebrations Before Wedding Planning
Right now, wedding details aren’t a top priority.
Sources say Taylor and Travis are still soaking in the joy of being engaged and aren’t rushing into planning.
Instead, they’re simply enjoying the moment, surrounded by their loved ones and the excitement of what’s ahead.
Busy Schedule Ahead for Travis
Of course, life isn’t slowing down for Travis. The Kansas City Chiefs are preparing to kick off the new NFL season next week, traveling to Brazil for their season opener against the Los Angeles Chargers on September 5.
Between his football commitments and the engagement buzz, it’s safe to say his plate is full.
First Public Appearance as an Engaged Couple
Even with all the excitement, the couple made time for their first appearance together since the engagement.
On Thursday, they attended a college football game at Arrowhead Stadium, where Travis’s alma mater, the Cincinnati Bearcats, faced the Nebraska Cornhuskers.
The moment carried a full-circle feel—nearly two years earlier, in September 2023, Taylor publicly confirmed their relationship for the first time at that very stadium, sitting beside Donna Kelce during a Chiefs game.
