As temperatures rise in New York City, so is speculation about what is being called the “American royal wedding,” as pop superstar Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs football player Travis Kelce prepare to say their “I Do”s. Not since Prince William and Kate Middleton tied the knot 15 years ago has a wedding received quite so much attention.<\/p>\n

<\/center> \u201cI don\u2019t think we\u2019re going to see another celebrity wedding bigger than this one anytime soon,\u201d said Michelle Edgemont, sales director for the digital wedding and event florist service Poppy Flowers. \u201cThe popular girl is getting married to the popular football player. Can you get more American than that?\u201d<\/p>\n While Swift has not confirmed her wedding date or venue or any other details about her big day, wedding experts are weighing in on what they expect to see.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cWhen it comes to this branding of the all-American couple, Ralph Lauren seems like a very obvious choice,\u201d The Knot Editorial Director Esther Lee told Spectrum News.<\/p>\n Swift is known to consistently wear the iconic designer\u2019s timeless designs in her personal life, including earlier this month when she donned a Ralph Lauren velvet Bordeaux tank dress to a theater performance in New York City with her husband-to-be.<\/p>\n \u201cIf she chooses to surprise us, there are some other names that have been thrown around,\u201d Lee said, noting the British designers Sarah Burton \u2014 known for romantic, emotionally driven clothing \u2014 and Vivienne Westwood, whose corsetry is less a symbol of restriction than sexual empowerment.<\/p>\n \u201cFolks think a ball gown is what she\u2019s going to wear or some kind of princessy look, and I would actually argue the opposite,\u201d Lee said.<\/p>\n Edgemont also sees Swift\u2019s bridal gown as either a simple, elegant A-line dress or a fitted beaded bodice.<\/p>\n Both Lee and Edgemont expect multiple dresses throughout the bridal festivities, with Swift changing from her ceremony dress to a flirtier, less restrictive reception dress and most likely a mini dress for late night dancing.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Nothing has been publicly confirmed by the couple, but public records show New York City issued a permit for loading and unloading theatrical materials at Madison Square Garden from June 29 to July 4.<\/p>\n The New York Times reported the couple are planning a gathering of 100 people at the arena that seats up to 19,500 people on July 2, and a second event for about 1,000 guests on July 3.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s quite strategic and smart if she moves forward with this because it gives her full control over a venue that has been privatized and locked down from a security perspective for not only herself and her husband to be, but also her guests,\u201d Lee said.<\/p>\n Choosing MSG as the venue offers security, staffing and the opportunity \u201cto really control the narrative tightly around her wedding,\u201d while also accommodating a large number of guests, she added.<\/p>\n Edgemont said MSG is accustomed to hosting high-profile events and guests and is used to doing quick event changes, sometimes switching from a basketball court to a hockey rink in a matter of hours.<\/p>\n Edgemont says she expects a venue to be built within the venue, most likely by a production company that\u2019s used to staging huge events in a day\u2019s time.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m definitely expecting Madison Square Garden to not look like Madison Square Garden,” she said. “It\u2019s not going to look like the basketball arena that the Knicks played in.”<\/p>\n \u201cI can see partitions,\u201d Lee said, to create separate spaces for the ceremony and reception.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Like Swift\u2019s separation of her musical catalog into different \u201ceras,\u201d complete with different aesthetics, themes and color palettes, both Edgemont and Lee expect a themed wedding with a narrative.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n What that narrative is, Swift has not revealed, but \u201cshe and Travis both will have a carefully crafted narrative around the theme all the way through every single detail of the wedding,\u201d Lee said.<\/p>\n That theme will also play out in the dresses Swift wears and the event\u2019s floral arrangements. (Edgemont predicts calla lilies presented in a way that is romantic and modern and a little bit different.)<\/p>\n \u201cI guarantee there will be a floral moment and a design moment for her wedding that will be unlike anything we\u2019ve seen before,\u201d Lee said.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m seeing the ceremony being very romantic\u201d with lots of draping to make it feel soft and elegant and beautiful lighting that makes it feel more intimate, Edgemont said.<\/p>\n The reception, she expects, will be more whimsical and surprising.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cWhatever she does, I think the wedding industry is going to see brides and grooms asking for that or something similar,\u201d Edgemont said, whether it be a color palette, a flower variety or overall aesthetic.<\/p>\n Lee calls it the “Swiftification” of weddings.<\/p>\n \u201cWhen you think about travel, d\u00e9cor, just the industry at large, whatever Taylor does, there is an effect to it,\u201d said Lee, who expects a $2.2 billion lift in new global wedding spending over the next two years because of Swift\u2019s nuptials.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source spectrumlocalnews.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As temperatures rise in New York City, so is speculation about what is being called the “American royal wedding,” as pop superstar Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs football player Travis Kelce prepare to say their “I Do”s.
