A star-studded crowd is ​expected, given Swift's roster of celebrity friends, including Selena Gomez, Ed Sheeran, Emma Stone and Gigi Hadid. In one TV interview, Swift joked that she would invite "anyone that I've ever talked to."

Irish television host Graham Norton, who appeared in Swift's "Opalite" music video, was pictured arriving at New York's JFK airport.

Swift was a guest on Norton's BBC chat show last year, and when he asked her when the wedding would take place, the singer said: "Oh, you'll know ... I was going to invite you to it."
