Taylor Swift Paid $2.6 Billion for New York City Marriage Permit

Pop sensation Taylor Swift spared no expense for her wedding festivities, reportedly paying $160,000 (approximately Rp 2.6 billion) for a permit to host her marriage party at New York's iconic Madison Square Garden. The fee covers not only the permit itself but also the associated costs for event handling, as confirmed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

"Taylor Swift has paid the permit fee she applied for, valued at more than $160,000 for the event and its handling," Mamdani stated to reporters on Friday. The lavish two-day celebration for Swift and NFL star Travis Kelce took place in Manhattan, requiring a massive security operation that led to the closure of several streets around Madison Square Garden.

While the total cost of the event has not been officially disclosed, Forbes magazine estimates the overall expenditure to exceed $20 million. Prior to their wedding, Swift and Kelce also made a significant charitable contribution of $26 million to various organizations. The union of these two high-profile figures has captured widespread attention, celebrated not only for its opulence but also for the convergence of stars from the music, sports, and film industries.
