dailyloe.com – Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have sent out save-the-date notices for their upcoming wedding. A source tells Page Six the ceremony is set for July 3 in New York City. This news surprises those who expected a Rhode Island venue.
The couple reportedly considered a large estate in Rhode Island. Swift owns property there next to a hotel. However, a source said in November they might scrap that plan. They wanted a venue that could hold more guests.
New York is a popular wedding location for celebrities. Beyoncé and Jay-Z married in their Tribeca apartment in 2008. Other celebrity couples married there include Hailey and Justin Bieber. Mariah Carey and Tommy Mottola also wed in the city.
Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick are another New York couple. Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas also married there. Swift and Kelce will join this list of celebrities.
July Fourth is famously Swift’s favorite holiday. The wedding date falls just before the national celebration. This year also marks America’s 250th anniversary.
Swift has strong connections to New York City. She moved into two adjacent Tribeca penthouses in 2014. She converted them into one large duplex residence.
She later bought the townhouse next door. She also purchased a 3,500-square-foot loft in the same building. Her property holdings in the area expanded significantly.
In 2014, Swift wrote ‘Welcome to New York’ as an ode to the city. The song includes lyrics about the city’s changing nature. It describes a love that drives you crazy but you would not change.
Swift served as New York City’s Global Welcome Ambassador from 2014 to 2015. The song ‘Welcome to New York’ was used to promote tourism. This role highlighted her official ties to the city.
She rented a place on Cornelia Street in 2016. This was while her Franklin Street property was being renovated. A song named ‘Cornelia Street’ appeared on her 2019 album ‘Lover’.
Swift is frequently seen in New York City. She often visits top restaurants with famous friends. Her public appearances in the city are well-documented.
Travis Kelce also enjoys New York City. He said it is cool to vibe around the city. Walking the streets and feeling the electricity is a favorite activity.
Kelce said he likes being one with the city. He enjoys feeling everybody doing their own thing. Meeting new people along the way is part of the experience.[]
