Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce Donate $26 Million to Charities Nationwide Days Before Rumored Wedding

Ahead of their highly-anticipated white-veil occasion, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce gave some of their guests a warm welcome to New York. 

To kick off the weekend of festivities—which will reportedly culminate in the couple’s wedding ceremony at Madison Square Garden on July 3—Taylor and Travis hosted a rehearsal dinner of their closest friends and family members at the venue on July 2, according to MS NOW.

Before saying yes to forever and always, Taylor had to party with her day ones, including Selena Gomez, who seemingly attended the dinner in a black lace dress, which she shared to her Instagram Story.

Friends Jack Antonoff, Bradley Cooper and Lena Dunham were also spotted dressed to impress in NYC as they appeared to be heading to the venue in luxury cars.

More of the couple's close pals—including Taylor's childhood bestie Abigail Anderson, her publicist Tree Paine, Travis' BFF Ross Travis and sports reporter Erin Andrews—were also seen at a New York hotel before the soirée.

And the party wouldn’t be complete without family joining the fun, with expected guests including the couple’s parents Donna Kelce, Ed Kelce, Andrea Swift and Scott Swift as well as brothers Austin Swift and Jason Kelce, plus sister-in-law Kylie Kelce

As for the actual wedding day, the “Speak Now” singer and three-time Super Bowl champion are expected to host around 1,000 guests at the iconic arena, which Taylor has played eight times to sold-out crowds.

But the “Blank Space” artist won’t be the one singing at the Garden this time, as she reportedly planned for other performers to take the stage.

As Taylor and Travis have been preparing for their big day, they and their loved ones have kept the details of their union secret, with the Kansas City Chiefs player’s brother Jason even joking that he “may or may not” be invited to the elusive event.

Now, it seems clear that their nuptials will take place at MSG following weeks of speculation. The arena allows for maximum space and privacy with its enclosed design and underground tunnels. It’s a fitting venue for a wedding that the “Fearless” singer promised would have a massive turnout.

“It’s huge,” she said on The Graham Norton Show in October 2025. “I’m so excited about it. I know it’s gonna be fun to plan because I think the only stressful weddings are the ones where you have a small amount and people are on the bubble.”
