Who’s afraid of a little old price tag?
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s Madison Square Garden wedding venue’s seven-figure price tag could make their nuptials one of the most expensive of all time.
The New York City arena costs $1 million per day, per TMZ, and the couple are reportedly renting it out for at least three.
The outlet reported Tuesday that the duo will need multiple days to set up and take down the star-studded event, which is expected to take place over the July 3 weekend.
Swift allegedly did not get a discount despite her history of selling out MSG shows over the years.
TMZ noted the venue must answers to stockholders as a publicly traded company.
Swift’s rep did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
We heard from multiple sources last week that the “Love Story” singer is going to walk down the aisle at the iconic spot since “privacy was of number one importance to them both.”
MSG, which has no events scheduled between June 29 and July 6, is known for its multiple entrances and highly secure infrastructure.
One source noted, “If you have billions you can transform the space into a wedding venue.”
Elite wedding planner Sonal Shah predicted to The Post last week that the extravagant nuptials could set the couple back $20 million.
“A weekend night at one of the most iconic venues in the world is not just about renting the space — you’re also paying for exclusivity, staffing, security, operations, and the opportunity cost of a concert or sporting event that could otherwise be taking place,” she explained.
Shah clarified, “Once you add production, security, catering, entertainment and décor, a Madison Square Garden wedding could very realistically become a $10 million to $20 million-plus event.”
