Breaking News:Fulfilling her Wildest Dreams! Taylor Swift superfan gets MARRIED in the front row of singer’s Arizona concert – after she and her groom spent $1,000 EACH on their tickets
A Taylor Swift superfan has detailed how she got married at the singer’s concert at Glendale’s State Farm Stadium in Arizona.
René Hurtado, 30, uploaded a TikTok video earlier this week after she and her now husband, Max, got hitched in the front row with her best friend and maid of honor officiating the wedding on Saturday night.
Her first video showed the moments leading up to the event and the ceremony itself, with the overlay text reading ‘POV: you get married at the Taylor Swift concert,’ has been viewed more than 5.2 million times at the time of writing.
In a series of videos, René reveals the process of organizing her wedding after buying row-one tickets and her best friend, who lives in Dallas, Texas, got ordained so she could officiate the wedding.
Initially, the couple had planned to elope on the day of Taylor’s concert and then go to the event ‘like it was our reception.’
But then it escalated after their friends suggested they actually got married at the concert.
‘I was like, “That’s a great idea,” so that became a new idea. [Flash] forward to November, we got our front-row, row-one tickets to Taylor’s concert and then Max gets a little scared,’ René, who told Rolling Stone the couple paid about $1,000 each for their tickets, said.
‘He’s like, “I don’t think I want to do this anymore.” He hates attention.’
Hearing her then fiancé’s concerns, she came up with a new plan, but when she spoke to him about it, René said he changed his mind and decided to forge ahead with getting married at Taylor’s concert.
She said most people who knew Max would be confused as to why he agreed to get married so publicly.
‘As someone who’s a hardcore Swiftie… he knows how important Taylor is to me, so he was like, “Yeah, let’s do it,”‘ René said.
She added Max was ‘very nervous’ on the day and ‘that’s why his back was facing everyone.’
