According to People, Stafford and his wife, Kelly, are among the approximately 1,000 guests expected to attend the star-studded ceremony at Madison Square Garden. The guest list reportedly includes NFL players, celebrities, musicians, and close friends and family of the couple.
Reports indicate Swift and Kelce hosted a rehearsal dinner Thursday evening before Friday’s ceremony. The iconic arena is said to have been transformed into a lavish wedding venue, with both the ceremony and reception taking place on the arena floor.
While Stafford and Kelce never shared an NFL locker room, the Rams quarterback has become one of many current and former players invited to what is expected to be one of the year’s most talked-about events.
For Lions fans, seeing one of the franchise’s most beloved former stars among the celebrity-filled guest list adds another Detroit connection to an unforgettable weekend.
