Taylor Swift<\/a> and Travis Kelce<\/a> have been swept up in preparations for their fairytale wedding – just months after the NFL player popped the big question.<\/p>\n

Back in September, an insider told Daily Mail that the lovebirds have chosen<\/a> her sprawling $28 million Rhode Island<\/a> mansion as the venue for the ceremony – and pricy renovations are now underway.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, Swift’s A-list bridesmaids were revealed ahead of the nuptials<\/a> – with BFFs Gigi Hadid<\/a> and Selena Gomez<\/a> claimed to be among the bridal party.<\/p>\n

A source claimed to\u00a0The U.S. Sun<\/a> that the Grammy<\/a> winner wants to turn her oceanfront estate into a floral wonderland.<\/p>\n

Both she and Kelce are willing to spend around $1.2 million on just the landscaping, with the songstress wanting to plant flowers ‘months’ ahead of the wedding.<\/p>\n

Included in the shocking price tag for those renovations alone is extra security to ensure that changes are concealed before the big day.<\/p>\n

A source claimed to The U.S. Sun that the Grammy winner wants to turn her oceanfront estate into a floral wonderland<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The source also claimed to the outlet: ‘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.’<\/p>\n

When Kelce got down on one knee back in August, he had notably transformed his backyard into a secret garden paradise.<\/p>\n

‘Taylor dreams of being fully surrounded by flowers, with lush floral bushes everywhere, making her teenage dream of marrying in a sea of flowers come true,’ the insider stated.<\/p>\n

When it comes to the wedding planning, Swift’s bridesmaids have been offering their input while both the pop star and football player’s mothers are also involved.<\/p>\n

The Bad Blood singer is aiming for a three-day wedding extravaganza for ‘a unique, unforgettable memory they’ll cherish for the rest of their lives.’<\/p>\n

The source additionally claimed that Swift is aiming to whisk herself and close pals away for a number of bachelorette-themed getaways such as to the Bahamas and Italy.<\/p>\n

‘The goal is to have fun, spend weekends together, and enjoy the process,’ the insider said to ‘create the best wedding weekend of her life.’<\/p>\n

Swift could possibly pay around $750,000 on the floral decorations alone which also include bouquets and other arrangements.<\/p>\n

A few months earlier in September, a separate source told Daily Mail that the couple are set on her Rhode Island mansion as the wedding venue.<\/p>\n

‘His family doesn’t care where it’s at. It could be in Timbuktu and they’d go there for it. But yeah – right now is that it’s going to be in Rhode Island at her mansion,’ the insider said.<\/p>\n

But when it comes to the kind of wedding the pair desire to have, the source claimed that Kelce wants a ‘blowout.’<\/p>\n

‘He wants a big blowout with everyone he loves, but he did say that he has to run it by her. So I’d guess he wants a bigger thing than she does.’<\/p>\n

The lavish manor sits on five acres and the singer purchased the mansion back in 2013 for $17.75 million.<\/p>\n

The location is also known for the Fourth of July parties Swift would throw with her close group of friends.<\/p>\n

Back in January, the value of the estate went up to $27.8 million<\/a>. It came after Swift’s plans to make $1.7 million in renovations was revealed.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, some of the singer’s bridesmaids were also revealed ahead of the anticipated nuptials.<\/p>\n

It was claimed that Gigi Hadid and Selena Gomez – who recently tied the knot with Benny Blanco – are set to be two of the Swift’s bridesmaids, per The U.S. Sun<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Love Story hitmaker had dinner with Hadid in NYC where she asked the supermodel to be one of her bridesmaids.<\/p>\n

While Hadid ‘wasn’t expecting’ to be asked, she was ‘thrilled’ to accept.<\/p>\n

The source told the outlet at the time, ‘Taylor wants to start the wedding process this way – building her bridesmaid group and getting everyone involved in the preparations, celebrations and planning.<\/p>\n

‘She wants it to be fun and memorable for everyone, with parties, trips and time spent together leading up to the big day.’<\/p>\n

Last month in October, Swift offered an additional detail about her wedding – and who could possibly perform.<\/p>\n

During an appearance on the\u00a0Hits Radio Breakfast Show, the songstress was asked if her pal and fellow music artist Ed Sheeran will sing at the ceremon<\/a>y.<\/p>\n

‘I mean it would be hard to keep him from it I think! That’s the thing, he’s like, “I’m always being asked to sing at weddings,” and you’re like, “Ed, if there’s a stage, you know that you’ll be on it!”‘ Swift replied.<\/p>\n

Back in August, Swift and Kelce announced their engagement with a sweet Instagram post captioned with:\u00a0‘Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.’<\/p>\n

The couple could be seen in a loving embrace after he got down on one knee and proposed.<\/p>\n

He transformed his backyard into a secret garden wonderland with pink and white floral arrangements placed throughout the area to create a romantic atmosphere.<\/p>\n

Kelce popped the big question with a massive 10-carat diamond ring and Swift offered insight into the special moment while on The Graham Norton Show<\/a>\u00a0in October.<\/p>\n

‘So he really crushed it when it came to surprising me.\u00a0Because we had actually filmed a podcast episode – he has a podcast called New Heights.’<\/p>\n

The star continued, ‘So we filmed the podcast for about three or four hours or whatever.<\/p>\n

‘And meanwhile, behind his house, he was having the whole back garden turned into this,’ she said, motioning towards photos of the engagement.<\/p>\n

‘And one of the things that he put in there very strategically was a wall of hedges that weren’t there before and inside the hedges was my tour photographer hiding in bushes that had not previously been there.’<\/p>\n

Swift – who was first linked to the Kansas City Chiefs tight end in 2023 – then gushed, ‘He went all out. Ten out of 10.’<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
