A huge white tent is laying claim to the side of Ocean House, the Rhode Island venue where Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce previously planned to say “I do,” though the couple doesn’t yet have a marriage license in the New England state.
The Grammy-winning superstar and Kansas City Chiefs tight end, both 36, had not yet filed for a marriage license in Westerly — where both Swift’s “holiday house” and the five-star resort are located — just before town hall closed Thursday ahead of Friday’s Juneteenth holiday, as Rhode Island House of Representatives Speaker Pro Tempore Brian Patrick Kennedy told TMZ.
Since the tent, shown in photos published by the outlet, had not been erected earlier this week, it’s believed to be meant for festivities this weekend. Also spotted nearby were multiple black SUVs.
Later on Friday, the outlet said “a possible wedding rehearsal” was going on.
The outlet previously speculated that the “Love Story” singer was celebrating her bachelorette party or bridal shower this week, as a TikTok showed one blonde woman wearing white on Wednesday at the estate — where there was “a massive security presence” — while several women sported black robes.
Though Swift and the Super Bowl champ are now rumored to be marrying at Madison Square Garden on July 3, they were previously reported to be exchanging vows at Ocean House on June 13, a nod to Swift’s lucky number.
Sources recently told TMZ that they switched both the location and date of the nuptials due to the rest of the public learning about the earlier plans.
Now, the outlet suspects that Swift and Kelce will wed ahead of partying at the Garden, which it’s believed will just house their reception.
