We don't often have celebrity news in Buttercupland. Not that we're (totally) uninterested, but there are a million other places where that's all they write about. But in October 2023, almost three years ago, I did a post predicting that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce would one day get married. I had visited Kansas City and took an interest in Travis Kelce and the romance that was just starting to be an "item." Here's a link to my very on the money prediction.
Sadly, although I live three miles from the venue, have a very nice dress worn to several weddings that photographs nicely and I was a very early booster of the match, I am not invited. Madison Square Garden holds approximately 20,000 people. Surely there's room for one local influencer.
If my dress doesn't meet the dress code, I can zip to Macy's and see what I can find and I will not try to smuggle in my phone and snap pictures. I proved I can adhere to a no-photography rule at Alnwick Castle and I was very tempted. Please, Taylor.
It is tempting to take a quick subway trip, seven stops on the local line, and see what's going on at the Garden, even without an invitation. But it's 96 degrees now and tomorrow and Friday are predicted to be 99. I will rely on those professional celebrity sites to keep me up to date.
Today was a quick zip to the grocery and the bank and an iced coffee while I was out. I'm keeping it cool. I had several ideas for the Fourth weekend, but, alas, the weather may be keeping indoors,
As ever, thanks for visiting and keep cool.

How neat! :) You live so close to Madison Square Gardens!
ReplyDeleteIt's going to be a scorcher here as well.
ReplyDeleteReading about their wedding is a nice break from reading about the rest of the world's woes right now. Their love seems the real and lasting kind and I'm happy for them. Too bad it's going to be so hot. It would have been fun for you to check out the hoopla.
ReplyDeleteIt's hot all over and especially here in Texas. I'm not of fan of those two but it would be exciting to see. Maybe next time around,
ReplyDeleteI'd stay indoors as much as possible in this horrid heat, Carol. As for the "royal" wedding, I certainly don't mind these two having it at MSG, but on the same weekend as the Fourth??? What were they thinking? Anyway, I wish them the best!
ReplyDeleteThe Garden will be there tomorrow and hopefully next week it will be cooler. I'm sure your invitation was just lost in the mail (no doubt confused with a mail in ballot because of the overly large envelope.) I hope they realize that soon!
ReplyDeleteHeat is really not bad here in western Md. It's in the mid 80's.
ReplyDeleteHappy Fourth, hope it cools down for you.
This wedding has featured in our UK news.
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th of July wishes.
All the best Jan
I think that wedding is going to attract a lot of press. I hope it cools down there for you soon.
ReplyDeleteYou definitely called it early with that Taylor and Travis wedding prediction, so missing out on that Madison Square Garden invite feels like a major oversight on their part. Your willingness to stick to the strict no-photography rule after surviving the temptation at Alnwick Castle should have earned you a seat in that crowd of twenty thousand. Brave New York transit in ninety-nine-degree heat just to stand outside the venue sounds exhausting anyway, so staying indoors with a cold iced coffee is by far the smarter move. Enjoy keeping cool this holiday weekend; you earned the right to say you knew it all along from the comfort of the AC.
ReplyDeleteYour wedding non-invite was most likely an oversight, Carol, but what a delightful post🙂. Your decision to forgo the heat and travel even if you could obtain an outfit on short notice was much better.
