Music correspondentIt looks official: Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are expected to celebrate their wedding with a party at New York's Madison Square Garden this weekend.
Speculation about the ceremony has been rife ever since the couple announced their engagement in an Instagram post last August. The couple have said almost nothing about it, but you can't book New York's biggest indoor concert venue for an entire weekend without causing a few whispers. The nuptials represent more than two celebrities tying the knot.
They'll become one of the most powerful married couples in America, with a combined wealth of almost $2.2bn (£1.6bn), and huge sway across the music, sport, film, podcast, publishing and television industries. But for Swifties, this is the culmination of a two-decade fairytale. In anticipation of the big event, here's a look at how their relationship evolved.
A bumpy startTravis was spotted attending Taylor's Eras Tour when it hit Kansas City's Arrowhead Stadium on 8 July 2023. He watched from a private box – but was seen meeting fans and trading friendship bracelets. He later revealed on his New Heights podcast that he'd tried to meet Swift – but his advances were rejected, because she was protecting her voice.
