Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce Wedding Guest Who Caught the Bouquet Revealed
Kayla Nicole is starin' at the sunset, babe.
As Travis Kelce tied the knot with Taylor Swift in a July 3 wedding at New York City's Madison Square Garden, his ex-girlfriend took in the view of the setting sun from a high-rise overlooking other apartment buildings.
Alongside a snapshot of the opalite sky stretched across a city skyline, Kayla wrote on her Instagram Story, "Look at her."
The Pre-Game With Kayla Nicole podcaster did not share the location of where the photo was taken, though the sunset in NYC on July 3 was also particularly colorful after a brief rainstorm.
Kayla, 34, dated Travis, 36, for five years before their 2022 breakup. Recently, she hinted at why their love story ended, telling Love Island USA alum Ace Greene in a TikTok Live that the reason her last relationship ended "could be compatibility issues."
"It’s been a long time," she shared. "Right person, wrong time."
And since her split from the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, Kayla has vowed to stay away from sports stars.
"I keep saying I don't want to date any more athletes," she quipped in a November episode of Harry Jowsey's Boyfriend Material podcast, "but I'm down to date the owners of the teams."

In fact, Kayla said her outlook on love has "really changed" in recent years.
"I want someone who has integrity and ambition," Kayla shared. "I do have a list in my phone. I write down the things that I want in life. I added that to my list recently: A man that is very romantic."
As she put it, "One guy that I dated, he sent me shopping to get an outfit to wear on my date with him, and then flew me out and had flowers waiting for me in the car on arrival and then had a whole date night planned."
As for Travis, he saw sparks fly when he attended one of Taylor's Eras Tour dates in 2023. Though he didn't get a chance to meet her at the show, he caught the "Wildest Dreams" singer's attention when he playfully called her out on his and brother Jason Kelce's New Heights podcast.

“This kind of felt more like I was in an '80s John Hughes movie,” Taylor, 36, recalled during her 2025 appearance on Kelce's podcast, “and he was standing outside my window with a boom box like, ‘I wanna date you, do you wanna go on a date with me?’”
She added, "So I was like, 'If this guy isn't crazy, which is a big if, this is sort of what I've been writing songs about wanting to happen to me since I was a teenager.'"
The couple married in front of family and a star-studded guest list of friends at MSG, with pal Adam Sandler officiating the ceremony. Jason served as Travis' Best Man, while Taylor's brother Austin Swift was her Man of Honor.
