A new report alleges that, alongside the usual A-list names we'd all expect, Taylor has also invited country music stars including Miranda Lambert, Kane Brown, Little Big Town, Kelsea Ballerini, and Maren Morris. 

Taylor collaborated with Maren for Red (Taylor's Version) and has written songs for Little Big Town, including "Better Man".

Invites were also sent to Steven Spielberg, and AMC and Disney executives with whom she worked to bring the Eras Tour to cinemas.

Our team is on the ground at Madison Square Garden today, and there's more trucks parking up outside the arena for unloading and huge privacy tents beng built.

A baby piano has already been spotted being delivered, as well as catering.

 There are also ambulances stationed near the NYPD vehicles - New York City is currently in the middle of a heatwave.

How do you feel about the wedding?

While both parties are incredibly wealthy, Forbes has Taylor's estimated net worth north of $2.1 billion, while Travis' net net worth sits at around $90 million.

Taylor's fortune continues to grow at an extraordinary pace, making it understandable that she would want to protect her assets. A prenuptial agreement can also address future royalties and intellectual property, meaning her legal team would likely advise putting an agreement in place. However, Taylor has not publicly commented on the matter.

A source gave People an insight into the setup occurring at Madison Square Garden. "They have grass, carpets and canopies, and it looks like a place where you'd get married. There's a stage set up, but it's special," they reported

On July 1, another source told People that the area had been "transformed" after staff prepared the area through the night.  "I've never seen it look so different," they reported.

At a press conference on July 1, mayor Zohran Mamdani alluded to Taylor and Travis' wedding. “We are fully prepared, there isn’t anything to share beyond that," they shared.

In a post on social media offering advice about coping in heatwave, the mayor told people to stay cool, "especially if you're (hypothetically) having your wedding at MSG this weekend".

New York Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch also addressed the event on July 1. "I would be remiss not to mention an event that we are tracking at Madison Square Garden on Friday night. The NYPD will, of course, have a detail in place, but I am not going to go into more specifics on that at this time," she shared.

Travis' brother, Jason Kelce, admitted in 2025 that he was "hoping" to be his brother’s best man. However, he shared that he was uncertain whether Travis will ask him because the groom has more than enough friends to choose from. "Hopefully, I'm the best man. We'll see," Jason said on the Bussin’ with the Boys podcast, before adding: "Trav has a lot of friends, I'm just hoping to get the opportunity."

Travis’s childhood friend, the clothing-brand founder Aric Jones, is thought to have a role in the wedding, alongside Travis's Chiefs teammate Patrick Mahomes and former teammate Ross Travis.

A video shared by Deuxmoi on June 30 showed the steps to the Madison Square Garden VIP entrance being covered with a striking red carpet.

Donna Kelce previously shared an insight into her son's upcoming wedding to Taylor. The 73-year-old opened up to TMZ about what she expected from her mother-son dance with the NFL star on the big day.

"It should be interesting for sure," Donna replied when asked about the dance. While the matriarch didn't share which song the pair had chosen, she did reveal the tune she danced to with her eldest son, Jason Kelce, at his wedding in 2018.

"I think with Jason's I danced to Love Shack with the B-52's," she shared. "So, we will see what I can muster."

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

Graham Norton previously joked that he had 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."

Travis' mom, Donna Kelce, also addressed the speculation that she was asked by Taylor and Travis to sign a non-disclosure agreement ahead of the nuptials. "No, no," she said. "They know I can keep a secret."

Graham Norton touched down in NYC ahead of Taylor's big day. While appearing on Graham's eponymous talk show last year, the singer was asked by the host when the wedding would be. Oh, you'll know. I was going to invite you to it," she said.

With Travis expected to return to Chiefs training camp in late July, the couple may have only a brief window to enjoy their honeymoon before their demanding schedules resume.

Over the years, they have escaped to some of the world's most luxurious destinations, including Lake Como in Italy, a $15,000-a-night resort in the Bahamas, and skiing trips to Montana and Utah.

Taylor and Travis are reportedly having a massive castle built for their wedding décor. Riggers were spotted draping fabric and moving structures outside the venue. According to Page Six, while décor was being unloaded at the venue, a black garbage bag slipped open, revealing two white bannisters believed to be part of the wedding's castle-inspired setup.

Travis Kelce’s longtime stylist, Danielle Salzedo, has touched down in New York City ahead of the wedding. On July 1, the stylist shared an Instagram story of her car driving into the city, set to RÜFÜS DU SOL’s track "New York".

Danielle previously told Us Weekly that Travis has "a clear vision for his personal aesthetic and definitely styles himself."

"I know what he likes, and I find him options with brands we know are his vibe — while also looking for new ones yet to be discovered," she said. Travis' wardrobe boasts the seams of  Louis Vuitton, Fear of God, Christian Dior, Bottega Veneta, Tom Ford, Thom Browne, Marni and Kid Super.

British designer Stella McCartney is not only one of the singer's closest friends but also tops the list of designers tipped to create her wedding dress for the big day. Or it may be designed  by Donatella Versace, who created multiple crystal-embroidered looks for the Eras Tour. Taylor wore a blue floral Ralph Lauren dress during her engagement, so the American designer is thought to  be a strong contender. Jonathan Anderson from Dior is also a likely choice.

Travis shared an insight into what guests can expect from the menu at his wedding. During his Super Bowl party on February 4, he was asked by TMZ how many kegs of his beverage brand, Garage Beer, will be available to guests after his ceremony.

"Man, I can't even count that high," replied Travis. The NFL star and his brother Jason Kelce co-own the brand which offers light beer, including a lime-flavored option. As per the website, the beer is described as crisp and refreshing and contains only 95 calories.

Boxes of lobster meat, blackened chicken, boneless chicken breasts and chicken legs were seen arriving at the venue, alongside fresh produce including romaine lettuce, red and orange peppers, eggs, heavy cream and whole milk.

French fries and thick-cut onion rings are thought to be side dishes, while a Krispy Kreme truck was also spotted pulling up outside Madison Square Garden. Although it's unclear whether the doughnuts were destined for the celebration or the chain's nearby Penn Station store, the sighting has fuelled speculation that guests could be treated to a sweet treat during the evening.

Estimated at eight to ten carats, its antique-style soft square stone sits on an 18-carat yellow-gold band with hand-cut facets and engraved filigree detailing, including the initial T. 

Celebrity jeweler George Khalife, AKA, spoke to us about the proposal and estimates the ring to be between "10-20 carats and the price could range from $1million to $5 million."

"This ring is a brilliant cut, and the style is called a bezel setting (that's the gold that wraps around the diamond)," George told us. "It's super popular right now, just like yellow gold in general. Old Mine diamond[s] comes with a lot of history! The whole look feels really antique, which I think suits Taylor perfectly."

The NFL star proposed to the singer in the garden of his $6 million mansion in Leawood, Kansas. HELLO! confirmed that Travis worked with the jewelry designer Kindred Lubeck and Artifex Fine Jewelry to create the Old Mine Brilliant Cut diamond.

The couple announced their engagement on Instagram, posting a series of photos that captured Travis's proposal, the sparkly diamond ring, and the serene floral backdrop where the moment took place. "Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married," read the caption, with a dynamite emoji at the end, a reference to their initials, T and T.

Taylor admitted in a UK radio interview in 2025 that it "would be hard to keep" the Ed Sheeran away from the stage at her wedding. "That’s the thing – he's like: 'I'm always being asked to sing at weddings.' It’s like: 'Ed, if there is a stage, you know you’ll be on it.' He knows what people want, and he wants to give people what they want," she said.

Ed has touch down in NYC, with a fan sharing a selfie to Instagram to reveal that the singer had dined in the Italian restaurant BuonaSera with Aaron Dessner.

Taylor is known for her close-knit circle of A-list friends, which includes models Cara Delevingne and Gigi Hadid, actresses Zoë Kravitz and Lena Dunham, singers Selena Gomez, Gracie Abrams and Phoebe Bridgers.

Model and singer Suki Waterhouse, who is in a relationship with Robert Pattinson, has reportedly confirmed her attendance. Meanwhile, Taylor is godmother to Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds' four children, though it remains unclear whether Blake and Ryan will be among the guests.

Early reports suggested that Taylor and Travis may tie the knot at her eight-bedroom home in Rhode Island, known locally as Harkness House. The singer purchased the mansion back in 2013. However, Rhode Island senator Sheldon Whitehouse revealed that the singer had "given Rhode Island a pass" for her nuptials.

It's Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding, and it's proving to be the event of the year, with A-list stars already arriving for the Madison Square Gardens nuptials.
