Taylor Swift turned Madison Square Garden pink for her wedding rehearsal dinner as she prepares to tie the knot with NFL player Travis Kelce.
The 36-year-old pop superstar is rumoured to be holding her wedding at the fabled New York City venue this weekend and reports suggested the couple held their rehearsal dinner there on Thursday night with the venue being lit up with pink lights and adorned with dusty pink curtains while the interior was decked out with peach-coloured flowers.
Famous guests including Selena Gomez, Jack Antonoff, Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper and as well as the singer’s childhood friend Abigail Anderson were seen heading to the venue on Thursday while Taylor is believed to have arrived at the venue in an SUV.
According to a police memo obtained by the New York Times, the rehearsal dinner took place on Thursday evening for around 100 guests, while a larger celebration for around 1,000 people is expected to be held on Friday, July 3.
The Friday bash will reportedly be the wedding itself, with a cocktail hour on the sixth floor of the venue before the ceremony in the main arena which will be followed by a reception.
Streets have bene shut off around the venue and strict security has been enforced with the New York Times reporting hundreds of police officers will be posted outside MSG throughout the festivities.
According to PEOPLE magazine, source have said MSG has been “transformed”, with one insider adding: “I’ve never seen it look so different.”
One insider told the publication, “It looks very special. They have grass, carpets, canopies and it looks like a place where you’d get married. There’s a stage set up but it’s special.”
It comes after New York City mayor Zohran Mamdani joked about the wedding when a reporter asked about the rumours during a press conference about a heat wave.
Mamdani, at the time, replied, “My recommendation to all New Yorkers is to stay inside and stay cool. And if you happen to be getting married at Madison Square Garden, you will be staying inside and you will be staying cool. And I think it’s a good example to set for the city at large.”
