“Her something blue 🩵” the building’s Instagram account captioned footage of a spectacular blue light display Friday afternoon.

The Empire State Building’s website noted the color is “light blue sparkle color.”

The latest on Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding


The message hinted at the couple’s August 2025 engagement announcement, which read, “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married 🧨.”

A press release immediately following the ceremony revealed the bride and groom wore Christian Dior Haute Couture, and that comedian Adam Sandler officiated.

It also divulged the couple opted to not have traditional wedding parties; instead, Swift’s brother, Austin Swift, served as her man of honor while Travis’ brother, Jason Kelce, served as his best man.

The couple kicked off the culmination of their love story at MSG with a smaller celebration for the Grammy winner and NFL star at their wedding rehearsal dinner Thursday evening, a formal event attended by around 100 close friends and family members which featured pink drapes and massive floral displays.

Guests were sent home with diamond-studded champagne flutes in velvet boxes following the pre-wedding soirée.

The couple held court with a much larger group of 1,000 A-list friends and members of their inner circle, with a lavish, star-studded wedding ceremony and reception Friday.

Guests spotted arriving at MSG prior to the nuptials included actresses Dakota Johnson and Zoë Kravitz, actors Hugh Grant and Jason Sudeikis, publicist Tree Paine, comedian Jimmy Fallon and many others.
