The reported security measures went far beyond a simple no-phone policy.

The couple had already made headlines for their strict no-phone wedding policy.

But according to TMZ, security checks went beyond the phone ban, with guests also being checked for devices like smart glasses and other gadgets that could secretly record photos or videos. They were also reportedly required to follow strict security procedures before entering the venue.

The added security measures came as Swift and Kelce welcomed hundreds of guests, including some of the biggest names in music, Hollywood and sports, to celebrate their July 3 wedding in New York City.

The director, who worked with Swift on several of her most memorable music videos, also opened up about the celebrity-filled evening, saying he was “starstruck” after meeting legendary filmmaker Steven Spielberg.

Kahn later described the wedding as feeling both massive and surprisingly intimate, saying it was like “living in the internet” because of the number of famous people gathered in one place.

Meanwhile, Sophie Charles poked fun at the phone ban by joking that she had “snuck a phone into MSG.” The catch was that her “phone” was actually a tiny gold flip-phone pendant that could not function as a real device.
