Selena Gomez is set to marry Benny Blanco in an ultra-private ceremony this Saturday, September 27, in Montecito, California. While neither Gomez nor Blanco has officially confirmed the date, reports suggest the wedding weekend is already underway. A white marquee and a dark gray canopy have been installed on a sprawling estate, where the couple is expected to exchange vows.
To maintain privacy, guests will travel to the venue via shuttle. The guest list remains mostly confidential. However, Paris Hilton confirmed her attendance after her sister Nicky accidentally revealed the news. Gomez’s co-stars from Only Murders in the Building, Martin Short and Steve Martin, are also expected to attend, along with longtime friend Taylor Swift.
Gomez and Blanco’s guests are reportedly staying at the El Encanto hotel, with rooms costing approximately $3,500 per night. Snoop Dogg, who previously collaborated with Blanco on the 2022 track “Bad Decisions,” is believed to be hosting the couple’s wedding reception. Gomez recently described the planning process as “wonderful” and expressed excitement for her big day.
Gomez has shared insights into her wedding preferences. In a recent interview for her Rare Beauty brand, she revealed she does not want a traditional wedding cake. Instead, she prefers a mini cake for the couple and has chosen biscuits and gravy as her primary dessert, inspired by her grandmother’s recipe.
Although her wedding look is still a secret, Gomez previously told Allure that she uses Pinterest for makeup and wedding inspiration. She combines ideas from the platform with advice from her longtime makeup artist, Hung Vanngo. She keeps dedicated Pinterest folders for cooking, style, and wedding ideas.
Gomez confirmed Martin Short, her Only Murders in the Building co-star, will serve as her ring bearer. She also expects him to deliver a speech during the ceremony. Steve Martin may join in with a musical performance on his banjo. Gomez previously highlighted the excitement of having her co-stars involved, emphasizing the personal connection she shares with them.
Before the nuptials, Gomez celebrated her bachelorette party in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. She shared images on Instagram showing a weekend filled with sunbathing, candlelight dinners, and a beach screening of Wedding Crashers. Close friends and family joined her, including Racquelle Stevens, Courtney Lopez, Ashley Cook, Connar Franklin Carpenter, and her cousin Priscilla DeLeon. Photos showed Gomez lounging under balloons spelling “Mrs. Levin,” marking her excitement for the upcoming wedding.
Gomez and Blanco’s engagement, announced in December 2024, followed their public relationship reveal in 2023. Gomez debuted a custom marquise diamond engagement ring, weighing between 5 and 8 carats and valued at over $225,000. The ring was inspired by her 2015 song Good for You, which references marquise diamonds. Gomez has long dreamed of owning this specific design and described it as a meaningful symbol of her love story.
As the couple’s wedding day approaches, anticipation continues to grow among fans and the celebrity world. With a private Montecito estate, high-profile guests, and thoughtful personal touches, Selena Gomez wedding plans with Benny Blanco promise a memorable and intimate celebration.
