Selena Gomez And Benny Blanco Wedding: Surprise Celebrity Host to Major A-List Drop Outs — All The Top Secret Details for This Weekend's Nuptials Revealed

A close source revealed: “Taylor Swift plans to attend, but she may be flying solo since Travis has a game in Kansas the following day.

“Everything is still being finalized.”

Insiders have also indicated that renowned actress Meryl Streep will not be making the guest list either, despite her previous intentions to celebrate with the couple. Streep, who is rumored to be dating Gomez’s co-star Martin Short, was first expected but decided against attending; the lavish wedding will be curated by celebrity planner Mindy Weiss.

Weiss is the only individual outside of Gomez and Blanco who is privy to the wedding’s precise location.

“Even the food vendors won’t be informed until Saturday,” the insider divulged.

“They will prepare the catering at a separate site and deliver it right before service.”

Though Kelce and Streep might be absent, the wedding will still boast an impressive guest list of over 300 attendees.

The ceremony is set to unfold on a secluded estate adorned with a tent and bolstered by tight security measures, reportedly costing around $300,000 to maintain privacy for its guests.

This highly sought-after venue, situated in Santa Barbara County, has been home to numerous celebrities, including Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, and lies merely hours away from Beverly Hills, where Gomez and Blanco reside in their lavish $35 million Spanish-style mansion.

Most attendees who plan to stay overnight on Saturday will be accommodated at the luxurious El Encanto spa resort, owned by Tinder co-founder Justin Mateen. Nestled in the Santa Barbara hillside, the resort’s rates begin at $1,000 per night, and it is fully booked for the weekend.

Among the invitees are heiress Paris Hilton, along with Gomez’s best friend Taylor Swift, in addition to her Only Murders In The Building co-stars like Steve Martin.

Entertainment for the after-party will be provided by none other than Snoop Dogg, who will serve as the event’s host. The iconic rapper, known for his collaborations with Blanco, including his work with BTS on the track Bad Decisions, will bring a distinctive flair to the celebration.

Selena Gomez, aged 33, and Benny Blanco, aged 37, first established their professional relationship a decade ago with their collaboration on the 2015 hit Same Old Love. They reunited musically in 2019 for the track I Can’t Get Enough.

As the years passed, their bond blossomed into a romantic relationship, officially announced in December 2023 after six months spent dating in secrecy.

Knowing they had finally discovered their perfect partners, Blanco proposed a year later with a stunning diamond ring valued at approximately $1 million.

Gomez shared her excitement on Instagram, proclaiming, “Forever starts now.”
