Evidence is mounting that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s nuptials are imminent, with several of the couple’s closest friends and collaborators spotted in and around New York City ahead of what is widely expected to be a July 4th weekend bash.
Guests invited to the wedding were told to be in New York on July 2 and 3, according to a source who spoke to Us Weeklyalthough no location or further details were given.
“Taylor and Travis told the guests to be in NYC. No other location was given,” the insider said, adding that the celebrations are planned over two days.
“They put their guests on hold for a few days. They spend a lot of money in the millions.”
The couple themselves haven’t said anything publicly, but Travis offered what felt like a knowing wink during a recent episode of his and brother Jason’s New heights podcast.
“The Fourth of July weekend is right around the corner,” he said, before moving on to an Expedia ad describing the holiday as capable of producing “great memories” and turning “a long weekend into a core memory.”
It wasn’t subtle.
The sightings of familiar faces in the area have only fueled the speculation.
Sabrina Carpenter was photographed dining in New York City, while model and singer Suki Waterhouse was spotted out and about.
Perhaps most telling of all, Taylor’s longtime collaborator and producer Aaron Dessner was spotted dining with Ed Sheeran on June 30 at BuonaSera on the Lake in Malta, New York, a restaurant about 60 miles from Dessner’s Long Pond Studio, where Swift has recorded a significant portion of her music.
Madison Square Garden has been the most widely rumored venue to offer the privacy, security and performance infrastructure that a wedding of this scale would require.
Whether it turns out to be the right location or an elaborate lure remains to be seen, but with the guest list seemingly piling up, the answer may not be far off.
