Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's magnificent wedding was celebrated with the Empire State Building lit up in blue against the New York City skyline. This special event took place as part of the couple's multi-day wedding celebration held at Madison Square Garden, with activities reported to have lasted from Thursday evening until Saturday morning. The famous skyscraper in Manhattan announced on its website that this blue glow was done "to celebrate Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding at Madison Square Garden."

The Empire State Building continues the tradition of Art Deco-style façade lighting to commemorate significant events in the city. This tradition is also evident in major events like the 4th of July celebrations, where it is illuminated in red, white, and blue lights. The choice of blue for Swift's wedding references a traditional English rhyme, carrying the meaning of "Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue," which aims to protect the bride on her wedding day.

The wedding took place on Friday at 5:00 PM ET, with the reception planned to continue until 4:00 AM ET on Saturday. A giant lighting system on the exterior of Madison Square Garden displayed a note reading "JUST & T MARRIED" during the wedding to announce the marriage. The city was buzzing with excitement for days leading up to the wedding, and many celebrities were seen entering MSG on Friday.
