While the rest of the country gears up to celebrate July Fourth, VF’s team of Taylor Swift obsessives have our eyes trained on Madison Square Garden, the site of her—still technically just “rumored”—wedding to Travis Kelce this weekend. It’s a fascinating paradox, choosing one of the highest-profile venues in the world for your marriage ceremony, then keeping all the details under wraps.

Our own Kase Wickman realized immediately that the public/private romance between the artist and the athlete took a page straight from Hollywood icon Elizabeth Taylor’s book, an influence perhaps confirmed by the second track of Swift’s 2025 album, The Life of a Showgirl. Among other revelations, Taylor intimate Tim Mendelson tells Kase that the Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? star would have abundantly approved of MSG as a wedding venue. Here’s why.

Also ready for your long weekend reading: Joy Press brings us an oral history of influential 1980s nightclub Danceteria, Hadley Hall Meares takes us behind the gates of Princess Diana’s ancestral home, and—turn the air conditioning up for this one—Elise Taylor mulls the most erotic movies of all time.
