Taylor Swift<\/a> and Travis Kelce <\/a>had to abide by strict permit rules for their iconic Madison Square Garden wedding<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Us obtained the permit from the New York City Mayor\u2019s Office filed by Winick Productions, which was submitted for June 28 to July 4 and detailed road closures for the \u201cspecial event\u201d at the venue. The request asked for permission to clear and hold parking in advance on the blocks surrounding MSG.<\/p>\n

According to the docs, all cables had to be \u201csecurely covered for safe pedestrian passage,\u201d while an emergency lane was \u201cmaintained at all times\u201d and parking could only be held 24 hours in advance. Interior and exterior locations \u201cmay be subject to FDNY inspections\u201d per the docs, while the event was asked to have \u201cminimal noise\u201d after 10 p.m. ET.<\/p>\n

The docs also required no interaction with pedestrian plazas, green spaces or bike lanes, and no interaction within 15 feet of any restaurant \u201cactively participating in open dining.\u201d There could also be \u201cno construction of pedestrian and vehicular traffic flow,\u201d while a \u201csafe pedestrian flow\u201d had to be maintained \u201cat all times.\u201d Sidewalks and city property were allowed as available.<\/p>\n

There was additionally a request for \u201cno parking in a no stopping zone,\u201d \u201cno parking at bus stops\u201d and no trucks idling or with detached trailers.<\/p>\n

The production company filed the permit under the project name \u201cSpecial Event at Madison Square Garden \u2013 7.3\u201d and informed the mayor\u2019s office of its $2 million insurance policy, valid from August 9, 2025, to August 9, 2026. The company also shared that about 50 trucks needed access to the venue for setup and teardown.<\/p>\n

A source exclusively told Us earlier this month that the pop star and the NFL athlete were planning to have a \u201cwhimsical\u201d celebration. Just days before the big day, a fleet of trucks was spotted making deliveries at MSG to drop off technical equipment, decor and even food.<\/p>\n

On the wedding day, Us obtained video of multiple trucks \u2014 including deliveries from Bradley Cooper\u2019s cheesesteak company and famed NYC pizza spot Mama\u2019s Too \u2014 coming in and out of Madison Square Garden. (Sources with knowledge exclusively told Us at the time that the couple ordered upwards of 100 pizzas<\/a> for their guests.)<\/p>\n

After the week-long set-up, Swift and Kelce, both 36, got married without a hitch on July 3. The ceremony was officiated by comedian<\/a> Adam Sandler, while the couple opted for no groomsmen or bridesmaids. Instead, Taylor\u2019s brother, Austin Swift, was her man of honor while Travis\u2019 brother, Jason Kelce, served as his best man.<\/p>\n

\u201cTaylor was emotional while reciting her vows but kept her composure,\u201d one insider shared with Us earlier this month. \u201cYou could tell she put a lot of work and time into writing her vows. Travis teared up more than Taylor. They shared very personal details and anecdotes that some guests had never even heard before.\u201d<\/p>\n

Multiple sources told Us that Taylor walked down the aisle to a string quartet version of her 2008 track \u201cLove Story.\u201d After the pair said \u201cI do,\u201d digital billboards outside Madison Square Garden read, \u201cJusT&T Married.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe whole night felt really intimate and personal despite being in an arena and how star-studded the guest list was,\u201d one source exclusively shared with Us earlier this month. \u201cThere were about 1,000 guests there, but it felt intimate.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce had to abide by strict permit rules for their iconic Madison Square Garden…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":309946,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[191,11709,68,9,24,55,54,12,56],"class_list":["post-309945","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york-city","tag-celebrity-news","tag-celebrity-weddings","tag-exclusive","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-new-york-city-headlines","tag-new-york-city-news","tag-news","tag-ny"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/309945","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=309945"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/309945\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/309946"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=309945"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=309945"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=309945"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
