Destination wedding
There has been much speculation that Taylor and Travis will exchange vows at her $17 million Rhode Island mansion, and she added fuel to the rumors when asked by BBC Radio 1's Greg James if she and Travis were having a "destination wedding." Taylor appeared on his show on October 3 and blindsided him with an invitation. "Am I coming?" he asked. "Obviously," Taylor responded.
Greg made his views on destination weddings clear in 2023, telling Metro: "If the people who are getting married aren't from that place, and have no connection to it, why are you basically forcing everyone to go on holiday with you?" However, despite Taylor giving him no response when he posed the question, he did reveal on Instagram after the interview: "Willing to make an exception for this particular destination wedding."

A-list performer
While she may not have mapped out her ideal wedding day just yet, Taylor already has a performer in mind – her good friend Ed Sheeran. During an appearance on Hits Radio Breakfast Show, she was asked if Ed would perform during her big day. She replied: "I mean, it would be hard to keep him from it, I think! That's the thing, he's like, 'I'm always being asked to sing at weddings' and you're like, "Ed, if there's a stage, you know that you'll be on it!"
She added: "He knows what people want and he wants to give people what they want. That's the fun thing about our friendship is we both love performing and we love writing, and we love singing. It's actually not that hard to talk either of us into performing at anything!"

Band vs DJ
In September, Travis shared an insight into how else they planned to entertain their guests on his New Heights podcast with his brother, Jason. Travis was asked by guest Jimmy Fallon: "Are you working on planning the wedding? Is that the next move?" to which he replied: "That's the next step. That one's gonna be easy, I just gotta figure out winning football games first."
Jimmy probed further, asking: "Are you gonna do DJ or band? Are you thinking about all this stuff?" Travis noted that they will likely go down the band route. "Yeah, I think we're live music kind of people, you know?"

Bachelorette party
Speaking to Jamie Theakston and Emma Bunton on Heart Breakfast, Taylor was quizzed about plans for her bachelorette party after Spice Girl Emma said she has "such a good girl gang." However, Taylor admitted that while her girlfriends are "very busy," she hasn't actually thought about having a bachelorette before.
"But everyone's scattered across the world is the thing, actually, you'd think I'd be the type of person who would have obsessed over the idea of a wedding my whole life, but I actually never thought about what I would do, what I would want, until I met the person," she confessed. "So I haven't even thought about that, doing a [bachelorette], this is the first time I've thought about that!"
