Selena Gomez weds Benny Blanco as Taylor Swift, Paul Rudd, and others reportedly attend

Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are reportedly preparing to tie the knot in a highly private, celebrity-filled ceremony this Saturday, September 27, in Montecito, California.

Although the couple hasn’t publicly confirmed the date, several celebrity guests have allegedly begun arriving in town. According to TMZ, Gomez’s Only Murders in the Building co-stars, Steve Martin and Martin Short, were seen attending pre-wedding events on Friday. Meanwhile, Taylor Swift was spotted arriving in Santa Barbara under heavy cover, shielded by umbrellas after her flight landed.

A large white tent has reportedly been set up on a Montecito estate, along with a nearby dark gray canopy, where the wedding ceremony is said to take place. To maintain privacy and avoid media exposure, guests will be shuttled to the venue, keeping its location hidden.

While the full guest list remains confidential, Paris Hilton confirmed her attendance in an interview with Access Hollywood, following her sister Nicky Hilton’s unintentional reveal. Martin Short and Steve Martin—both vocal about their support for Gomez—are expected to attend, along with longtime friend Taylor Swift. Gomez and Blanco’s wedding guests are reportedly staying at the luxurious El Encanto hotel in Montecito, where rooms can run up to $3,500 per night, according to Page Six. Music icon Snoop Dogg—who teamed up with Blanco on the 2022 hit “Bad Decisions”—is rumored to be hosting the wedding reception, per the Daily Mail.

Speaking about the planning process, Gomez recently shared her excitement: “It’s going really well. I feel incredibly lucky,” she said.

As the big day approaches, more details are emerging about the celebration—from her bachelorette party to the unique roles given to friends and family.

One surprise? There won’t be a traditional wedding cake. In a recent interview for her Rare Beauty brand, Gomez revealed a few key choices for the menu: she’s opting for comfort food like biscuits and gravy—but says cake is a no-go for her big day. Gomez has a clear vision for her wedding dessert — and it doesn’t involve a traditional cake.
Back in July, she shared that she’s not interested in a large wedding cake. “I’d rather have a small one just for us that we can freeze,” she said. Instead, her ideal treat is a plate of her Nana’s biscuits and gravy, which she considers her perfect comfort dessert.

She’s been turning to Pinterest for inspiration.
While her full bridal look remains under wraps, Gomez told Allure that Pinterest has been her go-to source for makeup ideas. She often uses the platform to gather beauty looks, which she then discusses with her longtime makeup artist, Hung Vanngo. In fact, she’s curated entire folders dedicated to her upcoming wedding, along with collections for recipes and personal style.

“If I find something I love on Pinterest, I’ll show it to Hung and we’ll blend ideas from there,” she explained in her September cover story with the magazine.
