Selena Gomez turned heads at her rehearsal dinner in Santa Barbara with a sharp white blazer dress from Ralph Lauren. The 33‑year‑old starlet let the public see the look that she wore before tying the knot with music producer Benny Blanco two weeks ago.
The designer’s Instagram post showcased a series of photos from the rehearsal dinner and the wedding weekend. The final five shots zoom in on Gomez’s short, double‑breasted white dress. It featured a big white flower on the left lapel, sparkling mother‑of‑pearl buttons, and a lace‑up back detail. Her hair was pulled into a sleek curled ponytail, her lips a dark red, and she paired the dress with jeweled dangling earrings.
Blanco looked sharp in a tan suit during the dinner, later striking a relaxed pose with a custom “Benny & Selena – Santa Barbara, CA” sign. The couple exchanged vows at Sea Crest Nursery on the cliffs overlooking the Santa Barbara Channel, wearing custom Ralph Lauren pieces. Blanco wore a vintage‑style suit with a pastel ruffled shirt and a bow tie, and was also photographed in a classic three‑piece tuxedo.
The private celebration drew a star‑studded crowd, including Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran and Paul Rudd. Guests stayed at nearby El Encanto hotel, with Swift renting a private villa for privacy. The ceremony took place on a small cliffside stage, surrounded by lush gardens and the Pacific Ocean.
During the weekend, Gomez revealed more of her wedding wardrobe on Instagram. For the reception, she wore a 50s‑inspired off‑the‑shoulder midi dress from Ralph Lauren. She also shared a sheer lace gown that featured the initials of her and Blanco. For the actual ceremony, she chose a hand‑draped halter‑neck gown that was both elegant and modern.
The rehearsal dinner, held at a mansion in Hope Ranch in Goleta Valley, kept the event close to family and close friends, including co‑stars from “Only Murders in the Building.” Fans got a glimpse of the intimate celebration before the couple’s beachside vows.
After the wedding, Selena posted behind‑the‑scenes clips, including a moment with her bestie Taylor Swift and a photo of her writing vows. She also teased future projects, hinting that one of her next roles could be as a mom – a playful nod to her “Wizards of Waverly Place” character, Alex Russo.
Selena Gomez’s Santa Barbara wedding and rehearsal dinner set a new standard for celebrity celebrations, combining timeless elegance with a touch of modern flair, all while keeping the moment personal and memorable.
