Travis Kelce proposed to Taylor Swift about two weeks before they announced their engagement publicly. He asked her to marry him in a garden at his home in Lee's Summit, Missouri. The proposal happened simply and beautifully: they were about to go out to dinner when Travis suggested they step outside for a glass of wine, and it was then in the garden that he got down on one knee and popped the question. Despite initially wanting to plan a grand event, Travis was advised by both his father and Taylor's father that the proposal could be special anywhere as long as it was heartfelt. After the proposal, they immediately FaceTimed their families to share the joyful news. Taylor later shared photos of the garden setting with the playful caption referencing their "English teacher and gym teacher" roles, which delighted fans.
