Blake Lively: The Front-Runner

If there’s one person who feels like a lock, it’s Blake Lively. Taylor and Blake’s friendship goes back years, filled with public appearances, inside jokes, and family moments. Taylor is so close with Blake and Ryan Reynolds that she even revealed the names of their daughters in her Folklore album (“Betty”). Blake has attended Eras Tour shows, cheered from VIP tents, and has been one of Taylor’s most steadfast celebrity friends. With her charisma, elegance, and sister-like bond with Taylor, Blake is all but guaranteed to don a bridesmaid dress.

Selena Gomez: The Ride-or-Die

Taylor once said that Selena Gomez is “like a sister” to her, and their nearly two-decade-long friendship proves it. From award shows to birthday parties to late-night hangouts, Selena has been a constant in Taylor’s life. Fans still gush over their red carpet appearances together, and both have defended each other through ups and downs. It’s hard to imagine Taylor’s wedding without Selena by her side as a bridesmaid—or even maid of honor.

Gigi Hadid: The Supermodel Bestie

Another strong contender is Gigi Hadid, one of Taylor’s closest friends from her New York “squad” era. Gigi and Taylor have shared countless outings, vacations, and public events. Gigi has also been fiercely protective of Taylor, often defending her against critics. With her fashion background, Gigi could bring effortless glamour to the bridal party—and she’s known to balance elegance with loyalty, making her an easy pick for Taylor’s bridesmaid list.

Abigail Anderson: The Childhood Best Friend

Taylor has been singing about her friendship with Abigail Anderson since Fearless. Fans know Abigail as Taylor’s longest-standing friend—the “redhead named Abigail” referenced in “Fifteen.” Their friendship dates back to high school, long before the fame, and Abigail has been part of Taylor’s inner circle ever since. If anyone deserves a bridesmaid spot, it’s Abigail. Her inclusion would also remind fans that Taylor still values the relationships that shaped her before superstardom.

Este, Danielle, and Alana Haim: The Musical Sisters

Taylor’s bond with Haim—the sister trio Este, Danielle, and Alana—has only grown stronger in recent years. From touring together to collaborating on “No Body, No Crime,” they’ve become more than friends—they’re chosen family. While not all three may officially be bridesmaids, at least one (if not all) could easily land a role in the wedding party. Imagine the Haim sisters leading the dance floor at the reception—it’s almost too good not to happen.

Brittany Mahomes: The NFL Connection

Since dating Travis Kelce, Taylor has grown close to Brittany Mahomes, wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. The two have been spotted hanging out at games, cheering from suites, and bonding as part of the Chiefs “WAG” circle. While Brittany is a newer friend, her connection to Travis makes her a meaningful addition to the bridal party, bridging Taylor’s pop star world with Travis’s football family.

Zoe Kravitz: The Quiet Supporter

Though not always in the spotlight, Zoe Kravitz is one of Taylor’s quieter, deeper friendships. Taylor spent part of lockdown with Zoe and has spoken about their bond. Zoe has a grounded, artistic energy that could balance the bridal party’s star power. Fans love how Taylor values friends who bring different perspectives into her life, and Zoe could easily be among them.

Cara Delevingne: The Wild Card

No Taylor Swift bridesmaid speculation would be complete without Cara Delevingne. Known for her bold personality and mischievous humor, Cara was part of Taylor’s 2015 squad and has remained a friend over the years. Cara could add levity and playfulness to the bridal party—after all, every wedding needs someone who’ll keep the energy high and the champagne flowing.

Kelsea Ballerini: The Country Connection

Taylor has always stayed connected to her Nashville roots, and Kelsea Ballerini represents that bond. Their friendship has blossomed in recent years, with the two often supporting each other’s music careers. Including Kelsea would tie Taylor’s wedding back to her early beginnings in country music, a sweet nod to where it all started.

Honorable Mentions

While not all of Taylor’s friends may make the bridesmaid cut, here are a few honorable mentions who could play key roles at the wedding: Ryan Reynolds: Not a bridesmaid, of course, but almost certainly a groomsman or reader during the ceremony. Lana Del Rey: Could perform during the ceremony or first dance instead of walking down the aisle. Sophie Turner: A newer addition to Taylor’s circle who could easily score an invite, if not a formal role.

What This Bridal Party Says About Taylor

If these predictions hold true, Taylor’s bridesmaids will represent the three pillars of her life:

• Lifelong loyalty (Abigail Anderson, Selena Gomez)

• Sisterhood in fame (Blake Lively, Gigi Hadid, Haim)

• New connections through love (Brittany Mahomes, Zoe Kravitz)

The result? A bridal party that balances history, loyalty, and evolution—the same traits that define Taylor’s music and her personal story.

Trends Taylor’s Bridesmaid Choices Could Inspire

Celebrity bridesmaid squads often spark wedding trends, and Taylor’s will be no exception. Expect to see:

• Mismatched Dresses: Taylor values individuality, so expect a cohesive palette but unique styles for each bridesmaid.

• Star-Studded Bridal Parties: Couples may be inspired to blend different friend groups, from childhood friends to new connections.

• Personalized Roles: Not all friends may be bridesmaids—some could perform, give speeches, or contribute in unique ways.

• Blended Traditions: With NFL culture mixing with Hollywood glam, expect crossover traditions like locker-room chants turned into reception fun.
