Raffle Games and Prizes

Guests earned raffle tickets by playing a series of arcade-style games set up throughout the venue. Billboard reported that the raffle prizes included designer handbags, a 1970s Chevrolet Chevelle, and a Chanel purse won by Jackie Tranquill. Gronkowski told People that he entered the games hoping to win a prize for his girlfriend, model Camille Kostek.

Gronkowski called the wedding “awesome” and “lovey-dovey,” noting the unprecedented number of celebrities he had ever seen. He praised the couple’s effort, labeling the overall experience an “A+.” He also said he felt “starstruck” meeting heroes and highlighted the dance floor as his favorite part of the night.

Other Notable Attendees

Former teammate Tom Brady was on the dance floor, and Julia Roberts impressed Kostek, who described herself as “absolutely starstruck” in a July 18 interview. The newlyweds kept a low profile after the ceremony, making a public appearance at JuJu Smith-Schuster’s wedding on July 10.

Aftermath and Upcoming Plans

Kelce is gearing up for his 14th season with the Kansas City Chiefs, with training camp beginning July 29. Swift is enjoying the Billboard Hot 100-topping soundtrack hit for *Toy Story 5*.
