Among the guests, one woman walked away with more than just memories from the celebration.
Ashley Smith, the sister of Kansas City Chiefs offensive lineman Trey Smith, who is also Travis Kelce's teammate, revealed on Instagram that she was the one who caught the popstar's bouquet.
“Celebrated an Enchanting Love S(T&T)ory 🤍✨🤍 And somehow…I ended up catching Tay Tay’s bouquet. 💐,” she wrote.
The bouquet toss is a long-standing wedding tradition in which the bride throws her bouquet at a group of unmarried female guests. Folklore suggests that whoever catches it will be the next to get married.
Ashley shared photos of herself holding the bouquet, including a mirror selfie and another image of her smiling while lying on a white bed while holding the flowers.
“So here’s to believing it’s bringing a lifetime of love, luck, and laughter my way. ☺️Congratulations, Taylor & Travis! Cheers to forever T&T! 🤍🥂🤍,” she added.
