Pop superstar Taylor Swift paid $160,000, equivalent to nearly P10 million, to secure a wedding permit in New York City for her marriage to NFL star Travis Kelce at Madison Square Garden. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani confirmed the payment, stating that Swift covered all necessary fees for the two-day event.
Security and celebrity guests
The permit fee included payments for security arrangements, as the wedding was attended by hundreds of celebrities. The mayor did not disclose the total amount spent by the billionaire singer on the wedding. However, a Forbes report indicated that the overall cost of the wedding exceeded $20 million.
Charitable donations before wedding
Prior to their marriage, Swift and Kelce donated $26 million to several charities, according to the report.
