Retired U.S. Women's National Team (USWNT) soccer player Julie Ertz described the challenges she and her husband, NFL player Zach Ertz, faced while preparing for the wedding of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. Ertz shared on the "Style of Play" podcast that she had only 24 hours to find a suitable dress after her original attire was delayed in customs.
"Trying to find a dress in 24 hours, let alone it being in New York seemed insane," Ertz stated. Adding to the pre-wedding stress, Zach Ertz had not tried on his tuxedo before their departure, leading to further anxieties.
Despite the logistical hurdles, Ertz conveyed that the event was enjoyable, particularly the dancing. She noted that she would refrain from sharing excessive details out of respect for the couple, but expressed her positive experience, stating, "I love love."
Swift and Kelce's wedding, which reportedly had over 1,000 guests, was officiated by actor and comedian Adam Sandler. Julie and Zach Ertz have prior connections to the Kelce brothers, having appeared on Travis and Jason Kelce's "New Heights" podcast. Jason Kelce and Zach Ertz were teammates on the Philadelphia Eagles before Zach was traded to the Arizona Cardinals in October 2021.
