Sources revealed to the Daily Mail that the “super posh” rehearsal dinner included several speeches from Swift’s close friends. One of the most talked-about moments reportedly came from Lena Dunham, whose punchline left guests “gasping and laughing.”
Dunham reportedly joked that “American football is just straight guys reenacting gay porn.” Swift, however, was said not to have been bothered by the crude joke and reportedly called it “genius.” Each guest reportedly left the intimate affair with a black velvet box containing custom diamond-encrusted champagne flutes.
It was another lavish detail in a multi-day celebration already packed with them. But for all the glamour, the couple clearly tried to keep the wedding under wraps.

The Daily Mail previously reported that Swift and Kelce issued nondisclosure agreements with their save-the-dates. Guests reportedly had to sign the NDA before receiving a formal invitation. They were also asked to surrender their phones upon entering the event in an attempt to prevent leaks.
The outlet also reported that Taylor Swift may have had a reason for keeping the official footage so tightly controlled. Sources claimed she was planning to release footage on her own terms, with insiders saying the whole event would be recorded.
“It’ll happen on Taylor’s timeline, after she’s edited it and is ready,” one insider reportedly said. Another source added, “If Taylor wanted total privacy, she could have quietly gotten married at home with a handful of people.”
