The reported ceremony comes during a busy holiday weekend in The Big Apple. The authorities are already preparing for Independence Day celebrations, a World Cup match, and extremely hot weather. Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch recently outlined the challenges facing emergency services during the weekend, but did not specifically address Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding:
“I would be remiss not to mention an event that we are tracking at Madison Square Garden on Friday night,” Tisch said. “The NYPD will, of course, have a detail in place, but I am not going to go into more specifics on that at this time.”
