Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's big day is almost here as the couple is expected to marry in New York City on July 3, 2026.

Rumors about the date, venue, star-studded guest list, and big-name performers have gone into overdrive since the wedding has been shrouded in secrecy, but Taylor and Travis' special day is already being cited as an event "bigger than the Met Gala."

It certainly won't be a small affair, as Taylor claimed that she has invited "anyone I've ever talked to."

"I think the only stressful weddings are the ones where you have a small amount ... and people are on the bubble," she said on The Graham Norton Show on October 3, 2025.

"And you have to evaluate or assess your relationship with them to see if they should be there. I'm not gonna do that… We don't have to think about it. It's gonna be fun… I shouldn't have said any of that."

Here are all the rumors surrounding Taylor and Travis' wedding day.

Where could Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce get married?

While neither Taylor nor Travis has confirmed their wedding venue, all signs point to it being Madison Square Garden in Midtown Manhattan, with reports claiming they have spent a whopping $3 million to hire out the famed arena for at least three days: one for setup, one for the wedding, and one for the breakdown.

Tellingly, MSG's website shows that no events are scheduled from June 29 to July 6.

City Hall also confirmed to The Post on June 24 that a permit application was filed with the city's Street Activity Permit Office for July 2 to July 4.

The permit, filed by Winick Productions in June, requested street closures around MSG and a public tent to be erected outside the venue, which can accommodate 500 to 999 attendees.

According to new details, the couple's star-studded nuptials will be a multi-day event kicking off on Thursday, July 2, with a rehearsal dinner at MSG the evening before their big day.

100 of their closest friends and family members are expected to attend the intimate evening, according to The Post. The dinner will serve as a kick-off to a larger wedding weekend celebration that will allegedly host between 1,000 and 2,000 people at the famed arena on July 3.

On Monday, June 29, a sea of trucks and equipment filed into the stadium, guided by a bevy of people. The loading dock appeared to be filled with crews working to ready the place for a major event.

Have guests signed NDAs?

According to an earlier Daily Mail report, the couple's save-the-date missives were sent with a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), which was required to be signed when guests sent back their RSVP.   

This rumor was fueled by Irish talk show host Graham Norton after he went viral in January for saying he signed "so many NDAs" to attend the couple's nuptials.

However, he later clarified his comments, saying he has not signed an NDA. "I said that as a joke on the podcast. I said, 'Oh, I've signed all these NDAs,' and then it started getting reported as a serious thing in America. I didn't say [to] cut that out because I thought it was so obviously a joke."

Suki Waterhouse admitted she will use her invite to find inspiration for her wedding to Robert Pattinson (who will likely be her +1).

"Nothing scarier than the actual planning part, right?" she told Variety about her wedding. "I'm gonna go to Taylor's wedding, and maybe I'll get some inspiration. It will be amazing."

Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid all but confirmed his attendance on The Drive radio show. "Well, I probably have. You know, I probably have," he said when asked if he'd received an invite. "And if I don't outgrow my tuxedo before then, I'm going."

He added: "Those guys, I'm so happy for 'em. When [it] really comes down to it, it doesn't matter how big the show is around them. They're in love, and that's the most important thing."

San Francisco 49ers' George Kittle confirmed his attendance while speaking with ExtraTV at the Tight Ends & Friends concert. "They said absolutely no gifts. But I was thinking, Travis, for some reason, really likes old coins, so I might get him an old coin," he shared.

Taylor's friend and longtime collaborator Jack Antonoff played coy when asked on the TODAY show if he has "any big weddings this summer." He replied: "Uh, I hope. Yeah, I hope so, man." Taylor was a guest at his 2023 wedding to Margaret Qualley.

Another person who teased his attendance is Prince William, who told Heart Breakfast's Amanda Holden when asked if he had received an invitation:  "No comment. I'm hoping, and I'm sure there might be an invitation around, but we'll see."

His attendance is unlikely, however, as Prince George's last day at Lambrook School in Berkshire, England, is July 4, 2026.

Taylor dropped a huge hint Ed Sheeran will perform at her wedding

Who's rumored to perform?

Back in October, Taylor revealed she already had a wedding performer in mind – her good friend Ed Sheeran. During an appearance on Hits Radio Breakfast Show, she was asked whether Ed would perform on 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!"

Stevie Nicks is rumored to perform

Fleetwood Mac's Stevie Nicks is not only expected to attend Taylor and Travis' nuptials, but according to reports, she may even perform during the celebrations.

Rolling Stone claims the "Edge of Seventeen" singer, who has shared a close friendship with Taylor for years, is set to play a special part in the festivities. 

Stevie and Taylor have enjoyed a longstanding bond both on and off stage. The pair have performed together live, while Stevie also penned a heartfelt poem for the physical edition of Taylor's 2024 album, The Tortured Poets Department.

Taylor has also paid tribute to Stevie on several occasions. During Game 4 of the NBA Finals in June, the Grammy winner wore a vintage-inspired "Stevie Knicks" T-shirt, a playful nod to the legendary singer.

Tim McGraw is another name thrown into the hat of potential performers. If so, it would be a full-circle moment for Taylor, whose debut single in 2006 and first Billboard hit was called "Tim McGraw."
