Taylor Swift graced the illustrious guest list for the wedding of Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco, celebrating their union on September 27. This revelation comes from an exclusive tip-off to Us Weekly.
Swift, at the age of 35, didn’t just drop in for the wedding. She was also in attendance at the couple’s rehearsal dinner, which took place the night before on September 26, illustrating the depth of her friendship with the Only Murders in the Building star.
On the big day, Gomez, 33, took a beautiful stroll down the aisle clad in a bespoke Ralph Lauren gown, escorted by her grandfather as she joined Blanco, 37, to exchange vows.
In a heartfelt Instagram post shared on September 28, Blanco jubilantly stated, “I married a real-life Disney princess,” accompanied by whimsical snapshots taken post-ceremony.
Gomez’s response to Blanco’s adoring message was nothing short of sweet: “I love you soooo much 💖.”
It’s worth noting that the friendship between Gomez and Swift has been blossoming since 2008, when their romantic connections at the time—Joe Jonas and Nick Jonas—brought them together. Reflecting on this during a podcast appearance, Gomez quipped that the “best thing we got out of those relationships was each other.”
In December 2024, the actress took to Instagram to announce her engagement to Blanco after a year of dating, cheerfully stating, “Forever begins now.” In a show of support, Swift commented, “Yes, I will be the flower girl.”
As Gomez prepared for her wedding, Swift confirmed her own engagement to Travis Kelce after two years of romance. The couple humorously announced their union with the line, “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,” shared in a joint Instagram post in August along with proposal photos.
Gomez excitedly showed her support for Swift via her Instagram Stories, reinforcing the strong bond between these two talented women.
“When bestie gets engaged 😻,” Gomez joyfully exclaimed alongside a repost of Swift and Kelce’s engagement photos. In a nostalgic moment, she also shared a screenshot of a tweet from Swift dating back 16 years, where Swift beautifully articulated, “Real love still happens sometimes.”
Gomez has often remarked that “every single problem I ever have is healable by Taylor Swift,” particularly regarding romantic entanglements, highlighting Swift’s wisdom and support as a pillar in her life.
In a heartfelt moment, Gomez remembered how Swift regularly flew in to be by her side during tough times, underscoring the depth of their sisterly bond: “It’s been proven year after year and in every moment of my life that she is one of my best friends in the world.” Their relationship exemplifies modern friendship—nurtured by love, laughter, and a sprinkle of celebrity magic.

Through thick and thin, their camaraderie is a testament to the enduring power of friendship in the spotlight, proving that behind the glitter, it’s the authentic connections that shine the brightest.
