Brad Paisley and Kimberly Williams-Paisley celebrated Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's love story with them!

As guests began to arrive for the wedding festivities at Madison Square Garden on Friday, July 3, the country star, 53, and actress, 54, shared a video, thanking the couple for their generous donation to the couple's Nashville-based nonprofit, The Store, ahead of the pop singer and NFL star's N.Y.C. wedding celebration, which the Paisleys appear to be attending.

"On the eve of the wedding of Tay and Trav, this is really an amazing thing to think about, the gift they gave The Store. We just wanted to take a second and say it's transformative. It will feed so many families, and what a way to start a marriage. I'm very excited," the country star, dressed in a black suit and black tie, said.

Williams-Paisley, dressed in a purple floral Olyssia Fit and Flare Gown by Theia, continued, "We are so, so grateful for your donation. This is gonna go such a long way, as Brad said. Food insecurity is at a 10-year high in Nashville and the timing is just so critical. We're just really, really grateful for your generosity. And congratulations on your upcoming wedding."

A rep for Swift told PEOPLE earlier on Thursday, July 2 that Swift and Kelce, both 36, had donated $26 million to several organizations ahead of their rumored N.Y.C. nuptials, which included the grocery store nonprofit.

“We're truly inspired by Taylor and Travis's generosity to so many wonderful organizations, and extremely grateful that The Store is included among them," Brad, 53, and Kimberly, 54, told PEOPLE in a statement at the time.

They added: "This gift will go a long way toward helping our neighbors facing food insecurity in Nashville. What a beautiful way to celebrate the beginning of a marriage!”

Brad and Kimberly founded The Store in March 2020, in partnership with Belmont University, which not only offers free groceries to its customers but also health and legal aid and music therapy.

In 2021, Kimberly told PEOPLE that opening The Store was the duo's "dream."

"People will be able to come and shop with dignity and make choices for their family," she said at the time.

Swift, who notably opened for Brad early in his career, provided a "generous gift" on Jan. 13 as well, The Store announced on Facebook.

"Thank you, Taylor, for using your voice and generosity to uplift neighbors in need," the post caption at the time read.

In addition to The Store, Swift and Kelce made pre-July 4 donations to City Harvest, the Food Bank for N.Y.C., New York Cares, Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, Harvesters in Kansas City, Brad Paisley and Kimberly Paisley's The Store in Nashville, Helping Harvest in Pennsylvania, Rhode Island Community Food Bank, Feeding America, the ASPCA, Grammy in the Schools and Dolly Parton's Imagination Library.
