Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have had us hooked since the very first friendship bracelet.

From Arrowhead Stadium sightings to holding hands in NYC, the Grammy queen and the NFL champ have quickly become the romance of the decade.

They’re not just dating, they’re living out a real-life Love Story. And now, with their engagement announced, rumours are bubbling louder than a champagne toast, and there’s only one question Swifties can’t stop asking: where will America’s answer to Posh and Becks say ‘I Do’?

While bookmakers have their odds, fans are busy dreaming up the ultimate wedding venues fit for Tayvis. From grand castles worthy of a folklore ballad to sun-drenched villas straight out of a Wildest Dreams music video.

According to Ladbrokes, Ireland currently has odds of 8/1 to play host to Taylor and Travis' big day. Ireland may not be the most obvious choice, but it has a certain magic that feels oh-so Taylor.

Misty mornings, fairy-tale castles, and landscapes that look like they were designed for a lyric about ‘dancing in a storm in my best dress.’

That said, here are just a few of the enchanting Irish contenders (in our humble Swiftie opinion) for what will be the wedding of the century... okay, maybe year!

Ashford Castle, Co. Mayo

Regal, romantic and secluded. This five-star castle has hosted royalty before, but a Tayvis wedding would be history-making.

Imagine Travis in a velvet tux and Taylor sweeping down those ancient stone steps in a custom gown- it’s basically a Netflix rom-com waiting to happen.

Adare Manor, Co. Limerick

Consistently ranked among the best hotels in the world, Adare Manor feels like stepping into a fairytale.

With Gothic arches, sweeping lawns and a Michelin-starred feast waiting at the reception, it’s the stuff of Enchanted dreams.

Powerscourt Estate, Co. Wicklow

For drama and glamour, Powerscourt is unbeatable. Its gardens are among Europe’s finest, meaning the wedding photos alone would break Instagram.

Not to mention, Dublin’s private jets would be working overtime to get Hollywood royalty there on time.

European romance

If Tayvis decides to swap misty castles for golden sunsets, there are plenty of swoon-worthy European destinations in the mix.

France (10/1) is always a contender- think a château in Provence or the glittering Riviera. Italy (11/1) offers Tuscan vineyards and Amalfi views made for magazine covers.

Portugal (12/1, not 13/1!) could give them a chic but more relaxed vibe with rolling wine country and coastal charm.

A surprising top contender, according to bookies, is the UK, a destination with odds currently sitting at 5/1. Could Tayvis opt for a Downton Abbey-esque wedding at Blenheim Palace, or a Royal wedding nod by tying the knot in Westminster Abbey- who knows?!

Cal Gildart of Ladbrokes said: 'Tayvis have finally moved into the next era of their love story! They might be America’s sweethearts, but these latest odds suggest that Britain could play host to the showbiz wedding of the century.'

A wedding for the ages

Wherever they choose, one thing is certain- the Tayvis wedding won’t just be another A-list affair; it will be the event of the decade. America’s sweethearts deserve nothing less than a venue as iconic as their love story.

So will it be misty Irish castles, romantic European vineyards, or something totally unexpected? Wherever Taylor and Travis say ‘I Do,’ one thing’s for sure- Swifties will be watching every detail, and of course, looking out for some beloved easter eggs!
