Well, the rumour mill seems to be in overdrive as the wedding date for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce gets closer.

The guest list is rumoured to include Ed Sheeran, Zoe Kravitz, Selena Gomez, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany, Gigi Hadid, Cara Delevingne and Emma Stone, just to name a few. Swift is also good friends with Beyoncé, so there’s always the possibility Queen B will also attend.
Karlie Kloss is also said to be invited, despite years of ups and downs in their friendship.
But with so many famous pals, not everyone is going to get a start and there might even be a royal or two who is set to make an appearance.

Despite once being close with the couple, Miles Teller and his wife, Keleigh Sperry, are not invited to the wedding, according to Page Six.
Sperry was once close with Swift, but the pair haven’t been spotted together since 2024 and there are rumours that lifestyle differences led to the couples drifting apart.
It’s been reported that Blake Lively won’t be making an appearance either.
While Swift is the godmother to all four children Lively shares with Ryan Reynolds, the ongoing legal battle with Justin Baldoni – which Swift got dragged into – is behind the reason she’s not invited.
It's looking unlikely that Blake Lively, who was once very close with Taylor, will be there on her big day. Instagram
Musician Maisie Peters, who opened for Taylor during the London dates of her Eras Tour, hinted that she won’t be attending.
“I’ve not received a sourdough loaf or a wedding invite,” Maisie said on the Zach Sang Show, making a reference Taylor’s baking hobby.
“And that’s OK.”
Will there be a royal appearance at the wedding?
While information about the wedding of the decade has been kept on lockdown, Prince William might have accidentally let a secret slip while speaking to Heart Breakfast Radio.

When asked by hosts Jamie Theakston and Amanda Holden if he and Catherine, the Princess of Wales, would be attending the couple’s wedding, he replied with “no comment.”
“I’m hoping, and I’m sure there might be an invitation around, but we’ll see,” he added, seemingly confirming the wedding is in fact happening this summer (our winter in Australia).
Swift met up with Prince William, Princess Charlotte and Prince George at a London Eras Tour show in 2024.
The singer has reportedly been friends with William and Catherine for years.
What's been said about the wedding date?
Swift and Kelce are rumoured to be tying the knot "before training camp begins" in July, according to ESPN.

NFL training camps typically start in July, with the NFL regular season typically starting in September. Kelce, 36, plays for the Kansas City Chiefs.
Two potential dates have floated around the internet – June 13 and July 3.
The number '13' holds special significance for Swift, who considers this her lucky number. It's also the date of her birthday – December 13, 1989.
However, more recently Page Six reported the couple sent out save the dates for a July 3 wedding.

July 4, Independence Day in the US, is known to be Swift's favourite holiday, so the July 3 date would tie into her annual celebrations.
Where will they get married?
While initial reports suggested the pair would tie the knot at Ocean House on Watch Hill, Rhode Island, recent details indicate the wedding could be held in New York.
Page Six confirmed in April that the pair were thinking of switching venues and going "all out" at a bigger venue in New York to fit more guests.

New York also makes sense for the location of the wedding, with the Fate of Ophelia singer having close ties to the city.
The outlet also confirmed the wedding would in fact be held on July 3.
The Rhode Island venue was thought to be the pair's frontrunner for a long time, as the singer has a house nearby - an oceanfront home on Rhode Island.
Swift reportedly snapped up the home for a cool $US17.75 million in 2013.

The Lover singer spilled some vague details of the couple's impending nuptials, and proudly showed off her engagement ring, during an appearance on The Graham Norton Show last year.
She even invited the Irish TV host to the wedding, and hinted it's going to be a big one with a huge guest list.
"I'm so excited about it," she said.
"I know it's gonna be fun to plan, because I think the only stressful weddings are the ones where you have a small amount and people are on the bubble."
"And you have to evaluate or assess your relationship with them to see if they can be there. I'm not gonna do that," she quipped, making the audience laugh.
"Anyone I've ever talked to [will be invited] … I shouldn't have said any of that."
Swift added during an appearance on Heart Radio in the UK that she had "never thought" about her future wedding.
"You would think that I had been the type of person who would have obsessed over the idea of a wedding my whole life," she said.

"But I actually never thought about what I would ever do or what I would want until I met the person."
"So I haven't even thought about that, doing a hen do or whatever."
The bridesmaids and wedding party
It's safe to assume Kelce's brother, fellow NFL star Jason Kelce, will be a groomsman or even the best man at his brother's wedding, but nothing has been publicly confirmed yet.
As for Swift's bridal party, rumours are rife that she has already chosen her bridesmaids.

Selena Gomez and Sabrina Carpenter were among the stars to publicly offer their congratulations to the star over her engagement at the time.
At the end of last year, Swift was spotted out and about at intimate dinners with friends including Carpenter and supermodel Gigi Hadid.
One user wrote on X underneath photos of Swift with Carpenter, who supported the Fate of Ophelia singer on her Eras Tour, writing: "All these dinners with her girls... it's giving collecting your bridesmaids."
Swift has also been spotted with Ashley Avignone, a stylist and influencer who is a longtime friend of the singer.

We know Swift is also close to Gomez, and attended the singer and actress' recent wedding to Benny Blanco, so she could also be very well be on the bridesmaids list too.
A source claimed to The US Sun that Hadid was officially asked to be in her bridal party during a dinner in New York.
The stunning proposal
When the couple announced their engagement last year, Swift wrote in an Instagram post that got more than 37.6million likes: "Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married 🧨"
Kelce proposed by dropping to one knee in a fairytale garden setting, filled with flowers.
