Selena Gomez and music producer Benny Blanco began dating in June 2023, although they had worked together professionally years earlier. Their friendship gradually turned into romance. By December 2023, the couple confirmed their relationship status with a surprise engagement announcement.
They kept most details under wraps, choosing to protect their privacy despite growing media attention. Since the announcement, fans have waited eagerly to learn when and where they plan to tie the knot.
Exclusive Wedding Plans: Two Days in Montecito
According to a new report by The Daily Mail, the couple has now locked in their wedding plans. They will exchange vows in a two-day private celebration in Montecito, California, this September 2025.
A source close to the couple said, “Selena and Benny’s wedding is going to be a two-day event in Montecito in September. Everyone invited has been asked to bring overnight bags to stay for the weekend.”
This location isn’t a random pick Montecito is also where celebrities like Oprah Winfrey and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have homes. It offers a mix of privacy, nature, and luxury perfect for a celebrity event.
Why Fall Was the Perfect Choice
The couple reportedly decided on an autumn wedding because of everyone’s busy schedules. One insider explained, “Selena loves being engaged, but she has been dreaming of being married forever. At the end of the year, it gets busy, not only for them, but also for everyone they want to attend.”
By holding the ceremony in September, they hope to include all their closest friends and family before the year-end rush.
A Look Into Their Careers: Balancing Work and LovBoth Gomez and Blanco have thriving careers. Selena recently wrapped up the third season of her hit Hulu series “Only Murders in the Building”, while Benny continues producing music for top artists like Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, and Halsey.
During a recent interview on the Therapuss podcast, Benny said, “We both need to chill. We’ve both been working so much,” hinting at how their wedding may also be a chance to slow down and reconnect.
Secrecy and Surprise: A Signature Style
Selena and Benny have often surprised fans. Just like their engagement news, their creative projects often arrive without notice. For instance, they dropped their joint album I Said I Love You First shortly after Selena had publicly stated she didn’t plan to release any new music in 2024.
This tendency to keep things quiet has helped them manage their personal life away from constant headlines.
A-List Guest List: Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, and More
Although the wedding will remain a private, close-knit affair, several big-name stars are expected to attend.
According to the same source from The Daily Mail, “Although it is for friends and family only, many on the friends list are huge celebrities, including Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, Selena’s co-stars from ‘Only Murders in the Building,’ and music superstars who are Benny’s friends and some he’s also worked with.”
Among those expected are Ed Sheeran, Steve Martin, and possibly Martin Short. However, fans are especially curious whether Taylor Swift and NFL star Travis Kelce will make an appearance together.
The source added, “Selena is not having her wedding to accommodate Taylor, but she wants her to attend, and she would love for her to be able to go with Travis.”
Looking Ahead: What Fans Can Expect
As September approaches, preparations are reportedly in full swing. The wedding is expected to be romantic and emotional, combining personal touches with elegance. While the couple may release official photos or footage later, they are committed to keeping the actual event private and heartfelt.
Selena has previously spoken about how love and self-growth are central to her life today. Her marriage to Benny may mark a new, joyful chapter both professionally and personally.
