Taylor Swift seems to be turning her Rhode Island mansion into the place where she and Travis Kelce will say their vows next year. A source told The US Sun that Taylor is looking forward to hosting the wedding at her own home, even though she and Travis had earlier considered Italy.

Her Watch Hill mansion, now valued at around $32 million, is being quietly prepared for the big day. Photos have surfaced showing freshly cut lawns and renovations underway, a sign that something major is in the works.

Inside Taylor Swift’s legendary Rhode Island mansion

Taylor bought her Rhode Island home over ten years ago for $17.75 million. The estate, known as Holiday House, is three stories tall, has seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms. The mansion is situated on the highest point in the area.

The mansion is spread across five acres and includes 700 feet of private shoreline. The Blank Space singer’s holiday home also offers beautiful views of Little Narragansett Bay and the Watch Hill Lighthouse. It has long been a favourite spot for Taylor’s famous parties, from Fourth of July celebrations to birthdays. The place has also inspired the song The Last Great American Dynasty from her Folklore album.

For the wedding, around $750,000 is expected to be spent just on flowers, bushes, bouquets, and large floral structures across the property.

Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce wedding preparations underway: Report

An insider told The US Sun that Taylor wants a completely new garden planted “months in advance,” filled with all her favourite flowers. She and Travis are prepared to spend $1.2 million on landscaping alone. Gardeners, floral experts, and extra security will reportedly be brought in to make sure everything stays private.

For the big day, she is going for red roses, hydrangeas, orchids, and peonies,  the flowers she loves most. The source described her dream look, “She wants the entire celebration to feel like a wave of flowers, with arrangements of white, purple, and pink orchids, plus blue, white, and pink hydrangeas, and peonies in pink, white, and red tones.”

Taylor also wants to give all her girlfriends bouquets of red eternity roses, similar to the ones Travis gifted her last year. “Taylor has always imagined getting married surrounded by flowers,” the insider said. “She wants to feel like she’s standing in a sea of them.”

Taylor Swift’s bridal party

Earlier this month, The US Sun reported that Gigi Hadid and Selena Gomez have already agreed to be bridesmaids. Selena, who married music producer Benny Blanco earlier this year, is sharing her own wedding experience with Taylor as the planning moves forward.

Both Taylor’s mom, Andrea and Travis’ mom, Donna, are said to be involved with the preparations. The bridal party has already begun swapping ideas, and everyone seems excited about the process.

According to the report, Taylor wants the wedding to unfold over an entire weekend,  from Friday to Sunday. The idea is to create a “multi-day celebration” that everyone will remember forever.

Several bachelorette-style trips are also being discussed. The bridal party might travel to some of Taylor’s favourite places, including New York, Nashville, the Bahamas, and Italy.

“Taylor loves how supportive her friends are,” the insider said. “They’re enjoying the planning, spending weekends together, and having fun with it.”
