Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are finally saying “I do” today, September 27, 2025 — marking one of the most anticipated celebrity weddings of the year. According to a report by Us Weekly, the wedding will take place in the scenic coastal city of Santa Barbara, California. The ceremony promises to be a glittering, star-studded celebration attended by some of the biggest names in music and Hollywood. From Only Murders in the Building co-stars to global pop icons, the guest list is shaping up to be nothing short of spectacular.
Taylor Swift, Selena’s closest friend, has already arrived in California ahead of the ceremony. As per Page Six, she landed on September 26, 2025, flying in via a private jet. Upon arrival, she was shielded by a team of security guards holding black umbrellas — a move that quickly sparked speculation that Taylor might be hiding her look for the upcoming festivities.
Fans also noticed that one of her team members was carrying a large white box, which many believe could be a special wedding gift for Selena and Benny. Taylor’s presence comes as no surprise — the two have shared a deep friendship for over a decade, and Taylor has often referred to Selena as her “sister.”
However, Taylor appeared to have arrived solo, without her fiancé, NFL star Travis Kelce. This immediately raised questions about whether Travis would be joining her for the wedding celebrations or if his football commitments would keep him away.
An insider close to the couple told Us Weekly that Selena and Benny’s wedding “will be a huge, A-list, star-studded affair.” The event has reportedly been orchestrated by celebrity wedding planner Mindy Weiss, who also planned Justin and Hailey Bieber’s nuptials — adding an interesting twist given Selena’s past relationship with Justin.
Among the confirmed attendees are Selena’s Only Murders in the Building co-stars Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Ashley Park, all of whom were spotted at the rehearsal dinner on Friday night. Also expected are Paris Hilton, Nicola Peltz, and Brooklyn Beckham, along with other Hollywood A-listers.
While Travis Kelce is on the guest list, it appears unlikely that he’ll make it to the ceremony. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end has a major game scheduled for Sunday, September 28, 2025, against the Baltimore Ravens at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri.
NFL players are typically bound by strict team schedules and curfews the night before a game, making it nearly impossible for Travis to travel cross-country for the wedding. Sources close to the Chiefs have indicated that he’ll remain in Missouri to prepare for the matchup.
That said, Taylor’s solo arrival and tight connection with Selena ensure her full focus is on supporting her best friend during one of the most meaningful days of her life.
The ceremony is being held at a private location believed to be near El Encanto Hotel, where guests — including Taylor — are staying. Reports say the venue is under heavy security, with guests being transported to the location without knowing its exact address in advance to ensure complete privacy.
From the looks of it, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s wedding is set to be an elegant, intimate yet dazzling celebration — one that brings together music royalty, Hollywood icons, and close family in a setting worthy of a fairytale ending.
