Taylor Swift has been singing and fantasizing about this moment since she was a young teenager writing songs on her bedroom floor. 

After two years of being together with Travis Kelce, the renowned pop star, now 35, might be on the verge of experiencing the fairy-tale proposal she’s long desired.

Just a few weeks after an insider mentioned to DailyMail.com that the couple is deeply committed and her parents are ready to give their approval, rumors have intensified that a wedding could soon be in the cards for the NFL player and the music sensation whose romance has enchanted fans worldwide.

To envision what her ideal engagement ring might look like, several jewelry experts have offered their insights, blending Swift’s signature romantic style with Kelce’s distinct personality, reflecting the couple’s extraordinary love.

Amid the buzz, Nilesh Rakholia, jewelry expert and founder of distinguished jeweler Abelini, offered insight into what Swift’s future engagement ring might look like—and just how much it could cost.

‘While specific details remain unconfirmed, a ring of this caliber would typically range from $1 million to $4 million,’ Rakholia speculated to DailyMail.com.

He also noted that the piece will be ‘both personally meaningful and elegantly stylish, potentially with a vintage-inspired or classic feel, adorned with diamonds or other significant gemstones.’

And as any Swiftie might hope, there could be more than meets the eye. Rakholia added: ‘Knowing Taylor, the ring itself, or the way it’s revealed, might contain subtle nods or ‘Easter eggs’ for her fans, perhaps relating to a significant date, a song lyric, or a shared symbol in her relationship.’

Taking inspiration from her jewelry box, Rakholia highlighted her affinity for one timeless detail: ‘Her collection prominently features yellow gold, a classic metal choice that could easily translate to an engagement ring.’

‘While she embraces diamonds, often seen in pieces by high-end designers, she also shows a fondness for colored gemstones with personal significance, such as opals, rubies, and sapphires,’ he emphasized.

Over the years, the Love Story songstress has frequently worn stones with sentimental meaning, each one a possible clue to what could sparkle on that finger.

Jaume Labro, CEO and goldsmith at Jaume Labro Godo Kaisha, believes Kelce’s vibrant personality will help shape his ring choice.

‘Travis’s flashy personality and high-profile status as a singleton [may influence his decision],’ he said. ‘I would imagine the ring being big but good taste. That would place the cost in the $500,000 to $1 million bracket, depending on the quality of the diamond.’

To help paint a picture of what her dream ring might look like, multiple jewelry experts shared their predictions of what Swift’s future ring may look like (seen above in a 2022 music video)

As for what he’d personally design? Labro imagines a stunner straight out of a fairy tale: ‘If I were to design Taylor Swift’s Travis Kelce engagement ring, I would have an antique cushion-cut diamond preferably 5 to 7 carats set in a rose gold or platinum setting. The cushion cut is an eternity, romantic diamond with soft, subtle edges that are so ‘Taylor.’

He continued: ‘I can envision the center diamond surrounded by a halo of micro-pavé diamonds for extra sparkle without being too much, and maybe a hidden diamond or initials underneath the gallery—a secret she’d have all to herself.’

To reflect her ultra-romantic style, Labro also imagines ‘delicate details like filigree work, tiny star-set accent diamonds, or even floral motifs incorporated into the setting.’

‘Taylor’s style is consistently rooted in romanticism and vintage flair, whether she’s on the red carpet or walking the streets of NYC,’ he said. ‘She gravitates toward ethereal, feminine looks—think lace, pearls, florals, and soft colors—which would lend themselves to an Edwardian or Art Deco-inspired ring.’

Ashley Taylor, co-founder and head designer of Taylor Custom Rings, agreed that Swift’s future sparkler will likely include ‘subtle symbols, personal details, and artistic nuance.’

‘A hidden halo could contain thirteen accent diamonds, or simple lyrics could be engraved inside the band of the ring,’ she mused. ‘I wonder if she might choose a private phrase or initials to engrave that stays just between them.’

And because Taylor is never one to follow the crowd, she might even skip the classic diamond.

‘With Taylor’s creative personality, I wouldn’t be surprised if her ring were surprisingly different from other celebrities’ rings. A colored gemstone would definitely be an impactful way to depart from tradition and make a splash,’ she said.

Jason Arasheben, CEO of Jason of Beverly Hills, also expects something bold, noting the 14-time Grammy winner is ‘going to want to stand out’ and may even embrace the ‘two stone trend.’

Several other experts, including Julia Teachy Lemle, founder of Julieri Jewelry, agreed on one detail: ‘Whatever stone she goes with, it is going to be big—very big.’

Austin Willard, founder and CEO of Faithful Platform Fine Jewelry & Engagement Rings, offered his own vision of a perfect match.

‘Travis’s flashy personality and high-profile status as a singleton [may influence his decision],’ he speculated (pictured in October 2024) 

‘I could see her loving a 7–8 carat radiant or emerald cut diamond,’ he said. ‘I wouldn’t try to bring in any colored gemstones or metal details that could make the ring design look too busy. A classic solitaire with some hidden details like a burnished gemstone or secret engraving on the inside of the band would be perfect for Taylor.’

And while the rest of the world may be watching, Willard believes Swift might opt for something far more private than performative.

‘Something more intimate and personal and understated,’ he predicted. ‘I could even see her wanting to use a diamond that had been passed down through their families for the sentimentality of it!’

He also encouraged Kelce to ‘lean into the details that can be personal to just the two of them and not visible on the outside of the band.’

Because for Swift, her ring will most likely be a secret message that only her and Kelce will ever truly understand.
