What Blake Lively Is Up to Amid Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce Wedding
Taylor Swift would marry Travis Kelce with paper rings—but they’re not letting their guests walk away empty handed.
Ahead of the couple’s July 3 wedding ceremony at Madison Square Garden in New York, several of their closest friends including Kelce’s tight end pal Ross Travis, fitness trainer Sarah Blackburn King and ESPN commentator Erin Andrews left the venue with gifts in tow.
In one photo, Travis, who wore a brown suit with a black T-shirt and matching Kangol hat, gripped the suede-looking navy box in one hand as he made his way out of the dinner. Also spotted claiming a seat on the proverbial bleachers were Swift’s friends Abigail Anderson Berard, Jack Antonoff and Lena Dunham, all seen heading into the venue earlier in the evening.
King, for her part, followed closely behind Travis in a nude dress, carrying the oversized box tucked between her arm and waist. A close up of the extravagant package revealed Swift and Kelce’s apparent wedding monogram: two T’s stacked next to each other with hearts circling the letters’ stems.
And while Swift and Kelce kept their rehearsal dinner—which was rumored to have around 100 guests—ultra private, several more of the pair’s pals have been seen touching down in New York this past week.
The Kansas City Chiefs standout’s mom Donna Kelce, as well as Sabrina Carpenter, Graham Norton and Ed Sheeran have all been welcomed to New York ahead of the couple’s highly anticipated white veil occasion.

Sadly, no, fans can’t come to the wedding—as Swift previously declared in song. But she has shared a bit of insight into what will go down for those who do show up at her and Kelce’s party.
One nonnegotiable? She’s going to make sure her friends help keep it 100 by performing.
“It's like, 'Ed, if there's a stage, you know that you'll be on it,'" Swift joked during an October appearance on Hits Radio. "He knows what people want and he wants to give people what they want.”

Trust, Swift will be feelin’ so Gatsby for her whole wedding weekend.
“It’s huge,” she shared of the growing guest list during an October appearance on The Graham Norton Show. “I’m inviting anyone I’ve ever talked to.”
