- Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's friends are starting to arrive in New York ahead of their reported July 3 wedding.

- Sabrina Carpenter, Ed Sheeran, Aaron Dessner, and Suki Waterhouse are all in the Big Apple.

- Swift reportedly touched down in New Jersey on Tuesday, the same day Kelce was spotted on a jog in Tribeca.

The squad is (almost) all here.

Less than 24 hours until Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce kick off their star-studded wedding festivities at Madison Square Garden, several of the pop star's famous friends have been spotted in New York.

On Tuesday, Eras Tour opening act Sabrina Carpenter was photographed in the West Village grabbing pizza with friends at Emmett's on Grove, around the corner from the rental house Swift made famous on "Cornelia Street."

That same evening, two of the bride-to-be's frequent collaborators, Ed Sheeran and Aaron Dessner, dined together in Malta, N.Y., about 170 miles north of Manhattan. The musical duo, who have also worked together on Sheeran's 2023 *Subtract* album, paid a "surprise visit" to Italian eatery BuonaSera on the Lake, according to owner Danielle Hartwyk, who posted a selfie with Sheeran on Instagram.

"Thank you for being so generous with your time and your kindness to our guests and our staff," Hartwyk captioned the snapshot. "It really was the highlight of our night!"

When one commenter questioned posting Sheeran's whereabouts so soon before Swift and Kelce's wedding, Hartwyk replied, "To my knowledge he is not staying in the general vicinity."

But is the "Shape of You" singer pulling double duty and also performing at the MSG nuptials? Swift hinted it was a possibility.

Are Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce the first couple to marry at Madison Square Garden?

When is Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding? Breaking down the biggest questions

"It would be hard to keep him from it, I think," she revealed on the *Hits Radio Breakfast Show* last October. "That's the thing, he's like, 'I'm always being asked to sing at weddings.' It's like, 'Ed, if there is a stage, you know you'll be on it.' He knows what people want, and he wants to give people what they want."

Another Swift collaborator and expected wedding attendee, Jack Antonoff, is presumably already in the area, as he lives in Brooklyn, just a Subway train ride away from MSG. Coincidentally, his band Bleachers played the arena on June 23, a little over a week before Swift and Kelce's reported July 3 ceremony.

Suki Waterhouse has confirmed she'll be there to watch the couple say "I do" and she's already in New York, where she performed a string of intimate shows in support of her new album, *Loveland*, earlier this week.

Camila Cabello, who opened for Swift on the *Reputation Tour*, is also currently in Manhattan. The "Havana" singer, who's been recording with Dessner at his Long Pond Studio in upstate New York, was spotted entering Electric Lady Studios on Wednesday.

At the very least, the bride and groom have touched down in the Big Apple — and both are prepping to walk down the aisle looking their best.

Swift's private plane landed in Morristown, N.J., on Tuesday and she immediately headed to work out with her trainer at the Dogpound Gym in SoHo, according to Page Six. Nearby in Tribeca the same day, Kelce was spotted jogging solo through the streets.
