Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are set to tie the knot this Saturday, September 27, at a private Santa Barbara estate. Family and friends of the couple are expected to start arriving in Los Angeles soon for the much-anticipated weekend celebration. According to sources, guests will stay nearby at the luxurious El Encanto hotel, with rooms reportedly fully booked at $3,500 per night, Hola reported.
In keeping with the couple’s desire for privacy, attendees will only learn the wedding location when they are picked up and driven there.
An insider told The Sun, “All the guests will be picked up and driven to the location without knowing their destination ahead of time. Everyone is so excited despite the mystery, they know it will be an amazing time.”
The couple, who confirmed their relationship in late 2023, got engaged in December 2024, with Gomez sharing engagement photos on Instagram, writing, “forever begins now.”
