SAVANNAH, Ga. () — By now, the news of Taylor Swift’s engagement to Travis Kelce has made headlines around the world. Visit Savannah did not hesitate to reach out to the power couple, letting them know the Hostess City would be the perfect place to tie the knot.
The engagement announcement featured pictures of the embracing duo and Swift’s 8-carat engagement ring, along with the caption, “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married!”
Immediately after the announcement was posted to the superstar’s Instagram, Visit Savannah sent out an invitation to them to get married in the Coastal Empire.

reached out to Visit Savannah president and CEO Joseph Marinelli and, while their post was clever, he says there is plenty of truth to it.
“We have it all here,” Marinelli said. “We have arguably one of the most beautiful cities in the world with a built-in honeymoon destination right down the road at Tybee. And we have a community that’s used to having celebrities and VIPs amongst us filming movies and television shows all the time.”
Visit Tybee also got in on the pre-wedding planning with this post:

When asked what it would mean to the city of Savannah if Swift and Kelce choose to marry here, Marinelli good-naturedly turned the question around.
“I think we have to look at it the other way,” Marinelli said with a smile. “What would it mean to Miss Swift and Mr. Kelsey to say that they’re having their event in Savannah? I mean, everybody already knows about Savannah! Everybody has either been here and wants to come back or we’re a bucket list city for them.”
