The two were spotted in Knoxville, Tennessee, at the wedding of Kelce's cousin, Tanner Corum, who tied the knot with Samantha Peck.
Photos of them quickly emerged on social media, sharing smiles with family and others.
After the wedding, Kelce headed to Kiawah Island in South Carolina, where he linked up with retired NFL tight end and Fox broadcaster Greg Olsen on Monday. The Chiefs star hit the links and took part in Olsen's fourth annual HEARTest Yard Celebrity Classic golf tournament.
Kelce and Swift were invited to another wedding over the weekend, on Saturday in Chicago. It was the wedding of Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet, who married his girlfriend, Emily Jarosz.

On Monday afternoon, @elliestyled shared a recap of Kmet's special day, sharing plenty of photos and videos. In the recap, there was a photo of Kelce and Swift's table card.

Kelce and Kmet have built a friendship through football and both being tight ends in the NFL. However, it's clear that Kelce and Swift's loyalty lies with family over friends, as they chose to attend his cousin's wedding instead.
It simply would have been too much travel for Kelce to go from Knoxville to Chicago to Kiawah Island all within that short time frame.
Kelce's Chiefs and Kmet's Bears won't play each other in the 2025-26 regular season, but they are set to face off in the third and final preseason game.

That game will be on Aug. 22 in Chicago, with kickoff scheduled for 8:20 p.m. ET.

Ex-NFL star wide receiver Antonio Brown facing attempted murder charges in Miami shooting
Former NFL player Antonio Brown is facing an attempted murder charge stemming from a shooting that took place during an altercation outside an amateur boxing event in Miami, according to an arrest warrant. Brown, 36, is accused of grabbing a handgun from a security staffer and firing two shots at a man he had gotten into a fistfight with earlier. The victim, Zul-Qarnain Kwame Nantambu, told investigators one of the bullets grazed his neck. The warrant does not list an attorney for Brown, an All-Pro wide receiver who last played in the NFL in 2021 for Tampa Bay but spent most of his 12-year career with Pittsburgh. Brown did not respond to messages sent to his social media accounts. The second-degree attempted murder charge carries a maximum 15-year prison sentence and up to a $10,000 fine. It is the latest in a series of legal problems for Brown, who has previously been accused of battery of a moving truck driver, several domestic violence charges, failure to pay child support and other incidents. During a 2021 game with Tampa Bay against the New York Jets, Brown took off his jersey, shoulder pads and gloves and ran off the field, leading to his release by the Buccaneers. After that incident, Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady said people should show some compassion for Brown, who lived at Brady's home during his time in Tampa Bay. 'It's a difficult situation,' Brady said then. 'Everybody should do what they can to help him in ways that he really needs it. We all love him. We care about him deeply. We want to see him be at his best. Unfortunately, it won't be with our team." According to the arrest warrant, Brown attended a celebrity boxing event in Miami on May 16. Police were called to the location after other patrons reported hearing shots fired. Several of them told officers Brown was the shooter, but when he was detained in the parking lot no weapon was found, but two bullet casings were located. Brown was released then because the victim was not found immediately, according to the warrant. Later, investigators learned Nantambu was the victim. Based on surveillance video, the altercation outside the boxing event involving Brown, Nantambu and others was broken up by security staff, one of whom got into a struggle with Brown, the warrant says. 'Mr. Brown appears to retrieve a black firearm from the right hip area' of the security official, the warrant says. 'Cellphone video obtained from social media showed Mr. Brown with the firearm in his hand advancing toward Mr. Nantambu on the outside sidewalk. The video captures two shots which occur as Mr. Brown is within several feed of Mr. Nantambu.' During his playing career, Brown caught 928 passes for 12,291 yards and 88 touchdowns. He played for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Oakland Raiders, New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, winning the 2021 Super Bowl along with Brady. Brown was a seven-time Pro Bowl selection.
