Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift reportedly decided to pivot away from holding their forthcoming wedding in Rhode Island<\/a> for security reasons.<\/p>\n

\u201cTaylor and Travis really wanted\u00a0their wedding\u00a0in Rhode Island, and June 13 was the date<\/a>, but security wouldn\u2019t have worked because it could get out of hand with that kind of scale of an event,\u201d a source told Us Weekly<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cOcean House [in Westerly] was planned at one point<\/a>, and then plans changed to New York,\u201d the insider added.<\/p>\n

The \u201cBad Blood\u201d singer\u2019s security \u201chad to assess all the venues to see what made sense,\u201d the source told the outlet.<\/p>\n

\u201cRhode Island wasn\u2019t great because the nature of the access and the perimeters were too difficult to secure,\u201d the insider added. <\/p>\n

\u201cSo the main issue with Rhode Island ended up being security.\u201d<\/p>\n

The source told Us Weekly: \u201cEverything was being planned in Rhode Island. And so many people wanted to come that plans had to change because it became bigger.\u201d<\/p>\n
