Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce tied the knot this week, celebrating with a lavish event at Madison Square Garden in New York.
The couple shut down some of the busiest roads in Manhattan and took over at the city's most iconic venue to celebrate their marriage on Friday (3 July).
Swift and Kelce walked down the aisle in outfits designed by Christian Dior, after months of rumors surrounding their special day.
Fans were only given glimpses into the star-studded event in Midtown Manhattan, as a large tent was erected in front of the arena, allowing guests to arrive in a private setting.
Contrary to images of Taylor Swift in a wedding dress circulating online, which have since been revealed to be AI, no official wedding photos have been released of the bride and groom.
But for the first time, some of the names on the guest list have been revealed.
The A-list couple was joined by close friends, family and fellow celebs at the iconic New York venue.
While the full list has not been released, a number of big names were spotted arriving at MSG to celebrate one of the biggest events of the year.
Despite several big names being rumored, the actual list included the likes of the following, as reported by Page Six:
It was also since been reported that talk show host Graham Norton, actor Jason Sudeikis and singer Benson Boone were in attendance.
Most of the guests partied with the newlyweds until the early hours of the morning, hours after LED signs outside the venue displayed text that read “JUST&T MARRIED!”
There were no bridesmaids and groomsmen, with the couple deciding to have one person each.
Swift's brother Austin Swift served as her man of honor, while Kelce chose his brother, former NFL star Jason Kelce, to be his best man.
Speaking to The Independent, Swift's representative Tree Paine said: “The bride and groom’s wedding ceremony looks have been created by Christian Dior Haute Couture.
“They are designed by Jonathan Anderson, Creative Director of Dior Women’s, Men’s and Haute Couture Collections, in close collaboration with the Bride and Groom.
“This is the designer's first couture wedding dress for a world-renowned celebrity. Their shoes were custom-made by Christian Louboutin and the bride wore Cartier jewelry,” the statement read.
Fans huddled outside the venue on Friday, with many wearing concert merch while belting out Swift tunes, as others climbed scaffolding in an attempt to get a better view of celebrations.
The wedding celebrations began on Thursday (July 2) in a far smaller event, with a reported 100 people believed to have been present.
The NYPD closed streets off to vehicles and pedestrian traffic around the arena around midday.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce finally made it official in a huge wedding ceremony at Madison Square Garden on Friday night (July 3).
Arguably the biggest pop star in the world tied the knot with the NFL star in a ceremony littered with celebrity guests, with comedian Adam Sandler officiating.
The newlyweds wore Christian Dior, according to Swift's publicist, and decided not to have bridesmaids and groomsmen.
Instead, Swift's brother Austin Swift served as her man of honor, while Kelce chose his brother, former NFL star Jason Kelce, to be his best man.
Around 7:30PM local time on Friday, LED signs outside the venue displayed text that read “JUST&T MARRIED!”
The “T&T” part represents their first initials, which were also on guest merchandise for the event.
Roads in the area were shut for one of the biggest celebrity events of the century, as Manhattan came to a standstill for the stars.
Speaking to The Independent, Swift's representative Tree Paine said: “The bride and groom’s wedding ceremony looks have been created by Christian Dior Haute Couture.
“They are designed by Jonathan Anderson, Creative Director of Dior Women’s, Men’s and Haute Couture Collections, in close collaboration with the Bride and Groom.
“This is the designer's first couture wedding dress for a world-renowned celebrity. Their shoes were custom-made by Christian Louboutin and the bride wore Cartier jewelry,” the statement read.
Unsurprisingly, a number of blacked-out SUVs were deployed to allow guests to shield themselves from any photographers or fans waiting to get a glimpse.
Streets in Midtown Manhattan were closed in preparation, as crews at the arena set up curtains and gazebos for the celebration.
Some of the celebs spotted around the venue include actors Hugh Grant and Jason Sudeikis, singer Benson Boone, and model Gigi Hadid, who wore a sparkly pink dress.
Actress Dakota Johnson was also pictured, while numerous members of Kelce's football team could be seen, though they arrived at the wedding in plain view while many other guests chose to exit under the enormous tent erected for privacy reasons.
TV presenter Graham Norton, who was famously invited to the wedding when Swift was a guest on his talk show, was also seen arriving at the wedding.
Fans huddled outside the venue on Friday, with many wearing concert merch while belting out Swift tunes, as others climbed scaffolding in an attempt to get a better view of celebrations.
The wedding celebrations began on Thursday (July 2) in a far smaller event, with a reported 100 people believed to have been present.
A permit with New York officials has been made public, calling the event a "pre-party."
The following day, a far larger event was held, with police presence on the heavier side while temperatures reached 37C (98.6F) in New York.
The NYPD closed streets off to vehicles and pedestrian traffic around the arena around midday.
Despite the curtains and tents put up to shield guests from paparazzi and fans, many managed to get snaps of celebrity guests arriving at the arena.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have reportedly laid down one firm rule for guests at their lavish wedding celebrations.
The pair are said to be hosting a large, multi-day event at New York City’s Madison Square Garden today (July 3), with the occasion being described as the “wedding of the century.”
Swift and Kelce, who announced their engagement in August 2025, have kept the finer details closely under wraps, but the buildup in Manhattan has sparked strong rumours that the big day is now happening.
MSG was reportedly selected because of its strong security and privacy setup. With no windows for photographers and underground VIP access points, the venue is thought to be ideal for an A-list gathering.
The main reception is expected to welcome around 1,000 to 1,200 guests, with the celebrations reportedly running until 4AM on July 4.
Though best known as a sports arena, the venue has allegedly been completely reworked for the occasion.
Trucks labelled “Garden Party” have been spotted arriving, while workers have been unloading trees, foliage, drapes, a 40-inch mirror ball and a large white staircase.
Sources say the space is being turned into an enchanted garden with royal castle touches, which may be a reference to their garden-themed engagement in August 2025.
The guest list is reportedly packed with high-profile names including Ed Sheeran, Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid, Suki Waterhouse, Zoë Kravitz, the Haim sisters, Jason Kelce and Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid.
According to reports, the couple have asked guests not to give them wedding gifts, with the loved-up pair instead asking those invited to donate to charities close to them.
The no-gifts instruction was revealed by San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle, who said in an interview with ExtraTV that he was on the guest list and confirmed the couple had asked for no presents.
Guests are also reportedly set to enjoy performances from Stevie Nicks and Tim McGraw. The entire event is said to be operating under state-visit-level security, with costs estimated at between $3 million and $5 million.
Staff are reportedly required to sign NDAs, wear special wristbands and surrender their phones before entering.

The biggest celebrity wedding of the 21st century is upon us, and it's said to take place at Madison Square Garden (MSG) this weekend.
Taylor Swift is set to tie the knot with NFL star Travis Kelce after three years of being together, at one of the most iconic venues in the country.
A lot has been leaked about reported details of the wedding, including NDAs for guests, and how celebrations may last for several days over the weekend.
It's widely believed that the more intimate ceremony will be held on Friday (July 3), with close friends and family, while celebrations with the 1000-or-so guests are set to take place later on in the weekend.
Details of the wedding have been widely kept under wraps, as it was even reported that the pair watermarked invites so they would know if anyone leaked information to the media.
It was also recently confirmed that Swift wouldn't change her stage name, though she would go by Taylor Kelce legally following the wedding.
On the eve of Mrs Travis Kelce's big day, names on the guest list have reportedly been made public, with some recognizable A-listers making the cut.
Kelce's brother Jason and his wife Kylie will be in attendance, while it is expected that Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany will also attend the wedding.
Swift's music producer Jack Antonoff and his Hollywood star wife Margaret Qualley are set to be on the list, while the likes of Sabrina Carpenter and Lana Del Rey are expected to be there.
Selena Gomez is expected to attend, after Swift was a bridesmaid at her wedding to Benny Blanco in 2025, while the Haim sisters are also expected to attend, as they were spotted sitting with Swift at the NBA Finals.
Talk show host Graham Norton is also rumored to have been invited after Swift verbally invited him when she appeared on his show last year.
But what about stars from across the pond attending Swift's big day?
Ed Sheeran
The pair have been friends for years, having collaborated on numerous songs over the years.
Despite Sheeran only finding out about their engagement on Instagram as he didn't own a phone, it looks like he'll be there for his bestie's wedding.
Swift joked that getting in contact with the 'Shape of You' singer requires an email to set up a FaceTime, and wait time so he can find an iPad to call with.
Previously speaking on Hits Radio Breakfast Show, Swift all but confirmed Sheeran's invitation after host Fleur East asked if he would be performing at her wedding.
The '22' singer replied: "It would be hard to keep him from it, I think! 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."
Sophie Turner
It's been reported that Swift and Turner formed a close friendship in late 2023 after Swift offered the Game of Thrones actress her New York City apartment to her and her two daughters following the actress' divorce from Joe Jonas.
Jonas also happened to be one of Swift's ex-boyfriends, but this hasn't stopped Turner from gushing over the artist's songs over the years, even publicly praising a song written about her then-husband.
Turner and Swift were seen having girls' nights out in New York during the couple's split, while also being spotted at Kansas City Chiefs games years later, according to TODAY.
Like Sabrina Carpenter, Suki Waterhouse opened for Swift during her Wembley Stadium show at the Eras Tour in 2024.
They were close for years though, as Swift once said that Waterhouse was "the wildest person I know who I would also trust to keep any secret."
Waterhouse also told Variety that she would be going to Swift's wedding, admitting that there's "nothing scarier than the actual planning part, right?"
She added in her May 2026 feature: "I’m gonna go to Taylor’s wedding, and maybe I’ll get some inspiration. It will be amazing."
Cara Delevingne
Model and actress Cara Delevingne has a close relationship with Swift, which spans over the past 12/13 years.
After modelling in the 2013 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, the pair formed a friendship, with the Brit even appearing in the star-filled Bad Blood music video in 2015.
Delevingne also claimed that she lived with Swift after a hard break-up at one point - since then, the duo have been seen together at events, often to support each other.
Dua Lipa
Dua Lipa may be fresh off her own wedding to Callum Turner in June, but it's been rumored that the New Rules artist has been invited to Swift's wedding.
The artist was recently pictured in New York, further sparking rumors about her attendance.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are set to tie the knot in a massive ceremony at a colossal venue in the next week or so, but some big names have been left off the invite list.
The ultimate celebrity couple's wedding will be the talk of the town when it takes place, with attention already being brought to the guest list and even the rules.
One wedding guest has already shared that the A-list couple does not want gifts from guests, but there's still a lot more that isn't known by the public before the wedding takes place at Madison Square Garden in New York, fit for around 1,000 guests.
Names such as Selena Gomez and husband Benny Blanco, as well as Cara Delevingne and Ed Sheeran have been floated around as rumored star-studded guests at the event.
Queer Eye star Antoni Porowski, a friend of Swift's, was also said to have been invited, though when asked about it, he said: “They’re getting married? Wow, I should really send some flowers or some kind of a congratulation.”
But what about those who weren't invited?
It has only been reported by publications so far, but it is believed that a number of big names will miss out on one of the celebrity weddings of the decade.
Here are the six names that are rumored to have made the no-invite list.
Page Six reports that the actress has not been invited to her former bestie's wedding, just two years on from their antics at the Super Bowl together.
The outlet added: “There hasn’t been an olive branch when it comes to their friendship,” an insider said.
“And Taylor hasn’t extended a wedding invitation to Blake.”
The Taylor Swift superfan has been left off the guest list, as she was asked if she was invited by ET.
“No, of course not. Me? No. She’d be smart not to invite me, honestly,” she admitted.
Glaser went on: “I look forward to the grainy helicopter pictures that I see of it eventually, but that’s all I should get.”
Swift was known to be good friends with Miles and Keleigh Teller in the past, but it looks like they have been overlooked for her wedding.
Page Six has claimed that they did not make the guest list, with the reasoning unclear.
According to TMZ sources, the friends had grown apart "due to differences in their lifestyles," but the explanation behind this is being kept under wraps.
Maisie Peters, 25, is a singer who served as the opening act for Swift's Eras Tour in August 2024 at Wembley Stadium in London.
The artist, known for the 2017 tune Place We Were Made, revealed that she was not invited to the wedding during an appearance on the Zach Sang Show.
When asked about the wedding, she revealed: “I’ve not received a sourdough loaf or a wedding invite, I think that’s OK.”
The Swiftie admitted in December that he was also snubbed, telling People: “No, I didn’t get an invite to the wedding. I ain’t expect one. You know what I’m saying? The whole nine.
"But they know they got my blessings and if she invites me, you dig? All right. I’m going. King Swiftie going to be at the wedding.”
He may have been handed an invitation since then, but this has not been confirmed.

Travis Kelce’s friend has revealed a strict rule that the NFL star and his wife Taylor Swift have ahead of their upcoming mega-weddings.
The Kansas City Chiefs star is set to marry Swift, one of the world’s biggest and most popular musicians, in a huge ceremony in the relatively near future, and speculation has turned to the venue, the guest list, and the events of the day itself.
According to reports, the wedding of the year will take place at Madison Square Garden in New York, fit for around 1,000 guests.
The guest list is expected to include people such as Selena Gomez and her new husband, Benny Blanco, Cara Delevingne, Swift’s famous friend Ed Sheeran and even her famous ex Robert Pattinson.
Also on the guest list is NFL star George Kittle, and he is the one who revealed one very specific rule that the couple have put in place ahead of the big day.
The San Francisco 49ers tight end, who will attend the wedding with his wife Claire, said that the happy couple have specifically said that no guests are to bring gifts.
When he was pressed on what he’d be bringing, Kittle said: “They said absolutely no gifts.”
It makes sense when you think about it - what do you buy the couple that already has everything?
However, Kittle is still going to bring something along for his fellow football star.
He added: “But I was thinking Travis, for some reason, likes old coins so I might get him one of those.”
Then, when pressed for a message for the couple ahead of their nuptials, he said: “Just have so much fun with all your friends.”
The truth is, we aren’t quite sure yet - but we have some ideas.
It is expected that the pair will marry at Madison Square Gardens over the Fourth of July weekend, and a statement from the mayor’s office in New York said that a permit was filed in early June asking for road closures from July 2 to July 4 around the venue.
It has also been reported that many of Kelce’s Chiefs teammates had booked hotels in the nearby area for that same period.
It seems as if there might be a number of events planned, with some rumors suggesting that there will be a smaller event on July 2, followed by a massive party on July 3, with rumored music performances as well.
There have also been suggestions that this venue could all be a decoy, and that Swift may actually be having her big wedding elsewhere, but this would be a lot of effort for that.
Taylor Swift podcaster Nicki Vleisides told BBC News: "MSG is where music and sports come together at the most famous venue in the world,
"The more I've thought about it, it kind of seems like the perfect choice for both Taylor and Travis and their respective industries."
His podcast co-host Andie Furber added: "No drones or paparazzi can get in or out, and Taylor, Travis and guests can enter underground from blocks away with no chance of getting photographed.”
