THE RUNDOWN
- Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are getting married this weekend. Their rehearsal dinner is set for tonight.
- Confirmed guests include Taylor Swift, Paris Hilton, and more, with TMZ reporting that over 170 people will attend.
- A source spoke to Entertainment Tonight about who Gomez tapped to be her bridesmaids.
Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s wedding weekend is officially kicking off. Entertainment Tonight and Us Weekly confirmed the couple is having their rehearsal dinner this evening, and their ceremony tomorrow.
A source told Us Weekly that Gomez’s longtime friend Taylor Swift and Paris Hilton are confirmed to be attending, along with her Only Murders in the Building co-stars Martin Short and Ashley Park. “It will be a huge, A-list, star-studded wedding planned by Mindy Weiss,” the insider said.
The source did not specify whether Swift’s fiancé, Travis Kelce, is joining, but the Kansas City Chiefs player has a game Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium, which may make attending the Santa Barbara, California wedding difficult.
Gomez and Blanco are keeping the event as secret as possible. “Guests still do not know exact locations for the rehearsal or the wedding,” the insider added, revealing that shuttle buses would pick them up at the hotel and take them to the venues.
TMZ reported that over 170 guests are expected to attend, but did not name names.
Entertainment Tonight, meanwhile, reported that Gomez will have bridesmaids, and they will be her “core group of longtime girlfriends who’ve stood by her for years,” a source said. Her bachelorette trip guests, which included Ashley Cook, Raquelle Stevens, Courtney Lopez, and her cousin Priscilla Marie, may be part of that group.
“Benny and Selena want their wedding to feel relaxed and meaningful…they’re not hiding their love or happiness,” the insider added. “The wedding will be a true reflection of that.”
