Trees are being loaded into venue now, with their little leaves poking up above the wooden boxes (and the closest any of us will probably be getting to seeing inside for now!)

New pictures show tall trees being taken inside, fitting perfectly with the rumoured country garden / Garden of Eden theme that's being talked about. It also sweetly matches the theme of the couple's engagement pictures, taken in a rose garden!

It wouldn't be a wedding without a little drama but there's said to be plenty over the plus one situation. One guest reportedly said they were not allowed to bring a plus one to the wedding - and there's a good reason.

"Everyone who's ever got married has probably had the same dilemma. Given that she's having an event for 1,000 people, I think that's been a little bit far-fetched. I think what she might have said is if somebody is single, they probably are not allowed to bring anyone. But if anyone is kind of dating someone, I'm sure that her friends’ partners are all welcome. I don't think it is that you've got to be married to be able to come," biographer Anna Pointer tells us.

"It's probably just anyone who happens to be single just comes as a single person. I don’t think she's gonna have been that strict given the size and scale of the event.

"Obviously, it might be a different matter for the dinner the night before, which is for 100 people apparently. That’s likely to be just close family, really close friends."

Imagine being a plus one to Taylor's wedding!

We've talked a lot about who will be at Taylor's 1000-guest wedding - but who will be missing from the big day?

It's been reported that former friend Blake Lively isn't on the guest list, a move that may surprise some. Taylor and Blake were once very close, with the singer even a godmother to Blake's four children, James, Inez, Betty and Olin.

But amid Blake's legal battle with Justin Baldoni, she and Taylor are said to have fallen out.

Check out the other names of those who won't be making the guest list!

Friend (and rumoured performer) Ed Sheeran has been seen in New York. He was seen dining with her Folklore and Evermore collaborator, Aaron Dessner, where he posed for photos with the owner.

Elsewhere, Dua Lipa - who also recently married - has been seen in New York, whilst Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Graham Norton have also been spotted arriving at JFK Airport.

13 is Taylor's lucky number - and it's been rumoured she'll be having 13 bridesmaids.

"The bridesmaids are likely to be Lena Dunham. Taylor was a bridesmaid at her wedding in 2021, so she's likely to return the favour," biographer Anna Pointer tells us.

"Selena Gomez I think is a shoo-in for bridesmaid. They're inseparable really. The Haim sisters, - Esther, Danielle, and Alana have all been mentioned as possible bridesmaids, as have Emma Stone and Gigi Hadid.

"And then the cutest I'm sure will be Jason and Kylie Kelce's daughters. Taylor and Travis are both really close to their nieces. There are four of them, Wyatt, Elliott, Bennett, and Finley and they’re all super cute, and they'll be the scene stealers.

"And then Taylor’s best friends from high school days. There's Abigail Anderson. Taylor was a bridesmaid at her wedding and another of her best friends, Ashley Avignone is likely to be there as well. That takes you to the magic number 13."

We know this wedding is a no expense spared affair - but even more boxes have been unloaded at MSG.

What's our guesses about what's in this one? Fans will know Taylor made her not so secret entrance to the Eras Tour in a box to avoid detection from fans (who quickly realised that was how she made it on stage).

Maybe this box contains Taylor or one of her superstar guests!

Well, I never thought I'd be squinting at the label on a wooden box - but this one could be giving away some details!

Many items are being delivered to the arena ahead of the big day, with this one reading 'The Tree BB'. There's a note on it, which reads Olive, Yellow 1/3 - so could that hint at Taylor's chosen colour theme?

Anyway, this box is just the trunk and the main branches so let's hope the one with the smaller branches has been delivered successfully too!

It has been revealed by one wedding guest that Taylor will have two events - and they will not both take place at MSG.

Anthony Jabin, a celebrity memorabilia collector, told TMZ that he was the plus one of a woman who had been invited to the wedding. He claimed that the wedding ceremony and the party will be held on the same day, Friday.

Anthony wouldn't clarify where the smaller ceremony would be held but said the big party was at Madison Square Garden.

Taylor is said to be planning a cute castle theme for her big day.

The motif has followed her around for her whole life, as Anna Pointer, Taylor's biographer. explains: "We've seen lots of equipment being taken in. It’s rumoured to be a castle themed setting inside, and throughout her career, she's loved that motif of the castle. We saw it in her video for Love Story; she rewrote the ending of Romeo and Juliet to have a happy ending instead of a tragedy.

"That's always been really important to her, the fantasy romance, the fairytale ending. We've seen things being wheeled in that say garden party on the side. And again, that whole idea of the magical, mystical, enchanted garden is really something that means a lot to her.

"We've seen it with the engagement when Travis covered the garden with thousands of roses and proposed in that idyllic setting. We've seen that on her album cover when she had the magical garden as well."

Firstly, we have the rehearsal dinner that's rumoured to be taking place on Thursday night.

It's thought just 100 guests will be in attendance at the rehearsal dinner on Thursday, which is believed to be taking place inside the Infosys Theater from 6 to 10:30 p.m.

Friday's reception is rumoured to have 1,000 guests in attendance, reportedly kicking off in the early afternoon at 3:30pm, followed by a cocktail hour and the ceremony at 5:30pm. The event is expected to finish at 2am.

A nearly 12 hour wedding - we wouldn't expect anything less!

Taylor and Travis are ensuring no expenses have been spared for their big day

New images of shipments arriving at the arena have suggested that the menu for the opulent two-day event might have been revealed - and the couple appears to be mixing fine dining with comfort food as lobster and French fries are set to be served.

Workers were snapped carrying boxes into the venue, with labelling suggested they were carrying lobster meat, and different types of chicken including legs, boneless, blackened, and breasts.

Other boxes containing fried food such as French fries and thick-cut onion rings were snapped, as well as fresh produce including red and orange peppers, romaine lettuce, eggs, heavy whipping cream and whole milk were also seen transported in.

There has been much speculation about why Madison Square Garden was chosen as the couple's venue.

Taylor's biographer Anna Pointer explains to us: "When people first started saying it was gonna be at Madison Square Garden, the reaction was, ‘Really? Why would she want to have a wedding in a stadium?’

"But I think as time's gone on, it does make quite a lot of sense. There are no windows. She wants to keep this really private - we know that - so the world can't look in and see what's going on.

"Guests will be walking down shielded tunnels. Lots of people said it would take place in Rhode Island. there were various venues touted around initially but those are all a bit more public in a way - you could easily see from a distance with a long lens camera. This makes sense in the middle of New York where they can shut down streets, which is what is apparently happening. It’s gonna be lockdown in Manhattan essentially."

When the whole world wants to know what's going on, keeping private is the key for Taylor!

As the couple prepare to welcome guests to New York, it's not going too well for one of Travis' best friends, NFL player George Kittle and his wife Claire as they tried to make it from Nashville to New York.

Writing on social media, she shared: "Just at BNA (Nashville International Airport) all evening. Was supposed to depart at 5:30am now it's 8am lol." A quick search of the flight details now shows the flight - which was expected to take off on Wednesday night - is now not due to take off until early Thursday morning.

The couple pretty much broke the internet when they announced their engagement last August.

Set across a backdrop of roses in Travis' back garden, he got down on one knee with a stunning ring for his bride-to-be. Captioning the post, they wrote: "Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married."

The post sits at a whopping 37million likes as fans flooded social media, thrilled for Taylor to finally get her happy ending.

Taylor and Travis started dating just three years ago when they met following his failed attempt to see her at the Kansas City leg of his Eras Tour. Travis had put his phone number on a friendship bracelet, desperate to give it to the singer.

In his New Heights podcast, Travis confessed he had tried, quipping: "She doesn't meet anybody, or at least she didn't want to meet me, so I took it personal."

However, everything changed when she heard of his plight and the pair soon connected through mutual friends and just two years later, in August 2025, they got engaged.
