Page Six Style Editor Elana Fishman Breaks Down Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's Stellar New York Wedding

So, Taylor's wedding was held yesterday at Madison Square Garden in Midtown New York City. We saw guests start to depart from a variety of local New York hotels around about 2 to 3 p.m. And then, according to the official schedule events, the cocktail hour started around 4.30, the ceremony kicked off around 5.30, and the reception followed at 6.30. And we have seen photos of some of the A-list guests leaving as late as past midnight, so this was definitely an all-night rager for a thousand of Travis and Taylor's nearest and dearest. So we actually have not seen any official pictures yet of her or Travis's ceremony looks. We do know, however, as confirmed by her team, that both the bride and the groom wore Christian Dior Haute Couture, which actually marks the creative director Jonathan Anderson's first couture bridal look for a major celebrity. So, super big deal. Prior to the wedding, Page Six had exclusively reported that Stevie Nicks was set to perform. Stevie is a longtime friend of Taylor's. She has collaborated with her before on her Tortured Poets Department album release. She wrote a poem in Taylor's honor. And she's been part of Taylor's inner circle for a while, so we reported that she was going to perform. And then today on Good Morning America, Robin Roberts, George Stephanopoulos, and Michael Strahan, all of whom were invited to Taylor and Travis's wedding, confirmed that Stevie Nicks did indeed perform during the reception. Yeah, there was a lot of speculation leading up to the wedding on who would make it into Taylor's bridal party. A lot of folks thought that Abigail Anderson, Taylor's best friend since high school, was a shoo-in for Maid of Honor. People thought Selena Gomez and Gigi Hadid would certainly be bridesmaids. In the end, she and Travis both scrapped the wedding party, and they just had one person each by their sides on the big day. So Taylor had her brother Austin as her Man of Honor, and Travis had his brother Jason, of course, as his best man. So despite the fact that this was a huge, over-the-top wedding, they actually kept the wedding party very intimate. When you think about it, Madison Square Garden actually makes a lot of sense logistically for this couple. Obviously, MSG, the world's greatest arena, hosts sports games and concerts. Taylor has actually played there a number of times in the past. So it's sort of this perfect marriage, pun intended, of sports and music. It's also one of the few venues where the couple could have a thousand-person wedding and still have the privacy and security that they both wanted and prioritized. Yeah, I mean, my money personally was on Paul McCartney. I thought that he might officiate and also perform at the altar. But Adam Sandler does make sense. I mean, first of all, Travis is, and I say this in a complimentary way, he's a goofy guy. He loves to laugh. He's the class clown, so to speak, of Hollywood. And so, you know, having starred in Happy Gilmore 2 with Adam, I, you know, I could completely see him calling him up and saying, you know, hey, man, want to do the honors? I'm glad that the city issued, you know, a plea to Swifties to stay home, to not congest the streets during this wedding. They weren't going to see anything anyway. There were drapes, there were tents, you know, it was sort of a futile attempt if they did show up at the venue. But yeah, I mean, we saw huge AC units and generators being trucked into Madison Square Garden. So I think the couple wanted to cover all of their bases. It is a historic heat wave. I don't think, this is just my personal opinion as a longtime Swifty and as a journalist who's been covering Taylor for many years. I can't, I could never see the couple collaborating with a major outlet or a magazine to share wedding photos. So in this case, you know, phones were confiscated. Surely we're not going to see anything until they share it on their own personal socials and on their own timeline. So trying to, it's almost like putting together a puzzle, piecing together the information that we have gotten, little bits and bobs, until we have those official photos. So a Royal wedding of a different kind, but very, very different from covering a British Royal wedding.
