Selena Gomez Hosts Lavish Star-Studded Wedding Weekend in California

Selena Gomez and music producer Benny Blanco are set to marry in a lavish, star-studded event at a private estate in Montecito, California. The wedding weekend includes a rehearsal dinner at an exclusive country mansion in Goleta’s Hope Ranch neighborhood, with guests being accommodated at the luxury El Encanto resort in Santa Barbara. Gomez’s "Only Murders in the Building" co-stars Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Paul Rudd are confirmed attendees, with Martin serving as the ringbearer, and the trio seen socializing ahead of the ceremony. Superstar Taylor Swift, a longtime close friend of Gomez, arrived in a convoy and is also part of the 170-guest list. The event is heavily secured, with reports of a $300,000 security budget and last-minute catering deliveries to maintain privacy. The celebration is expected to be a three-day affair with a high-profile guest list including celebrities such as Paris Hilton and likely other notable figures from Gomez and Blanco's social circles.
