Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce's Wedding Celebration and Preparation
Preparations around Madison Square Garden have intensified over the past several days. Delivery trucks, temporary structures and increased security have been spotted outside the venue, while sections of nearby streets are reportedly scheduled for temporary closures during the celebrations.
The Daily Mail reported that three police officers working at Madison Square Garden confirmed the venue would host both the rehearsal dinner and the wedding ceremony.
Security is expected to be extensive. Both events will operate under a strict no-phone policy that applies to everyone inside the venue, including guests, vendors and security personnel.
Tents and canopies will reportedly be installed around entrances and exits to shield attendees from public view. Portions of West 31st Street and West 33rd Street are also expected to be closed during the events.
Taylor Swift's Guest List
The singer revealed she would invite everyone she has ever met to her wedding when she first announced her engagement. And the wedding is expected to see more than 1,000 attendees to celebrate the couple.
She has even sent an invitation to the New York Knicks Starting 5. It remains unclear whether the Knicks players have accepted the invitation.
However, if they attend, they will join a celebrity-packed guest list that reportedly includes Selena Gomez, Mariska Hargitay, Gigi Hadid, Suki Waterhouse and several of Kelce's Kansas City Chiefs teammates.
Meanwhile, British television host Graham Norton and his husband, Jono McLeod, were photographed arriving at New York's JFK Airport on Wednesday for the wedding.
Actor Phoebe Waller-Bridge was also reportedly seen arriving with family members, while singer Dua Lipa was among the celebrities already in the city.
