Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s dream wedding has turned into a race against time and leaks.
With just weeks until their Montecito nuptials, insiders say the couple is “fuming” over leaked details, including their guest list and venue, and is considering drastic security measures.
As pressure mounts, Gomez faces the ultimate celebrity challenge of pulling off a private wedding in a public world.
Selena Gomez Furious Over Leaked Wedding Details

Gomez and Blanco were hoping for a private, intimate celebration.
However, after insiders leaked their wedding date, guest list, and Montecito venue, the couple has been left scrambling to save what’s left of their secrecy.
“Selena and Benny are fuming their wedding plans have been leaked,” one insider told the Daily Mail. “If it wasn’t just two months away they’d think about changing the celebrations, but that’s an impossible task and they don’t want to delay the wedding and find a new location. Instead, they’re doubling up on security to make the event as private as possible.”
The decision to move forward despite the chaos isn’t without urgency.
Gomez stars in Hulu’s hit series "Only Murders in the Building," which returns for Season 5 on September 9.
With filming and press tours on the horizon, postponing the nuptials simply isn’t an option.
Selena Gomez Weighs Strict Rules To Protect A-List Guests

Gomez’s top priority is making sure her celebrity guests feel safe and off the grid.
According to a second insider, “Security for Selena’s wedding will be of the utmost importance because not only is she a public figure, many of the guests will be too.”
The leak has prompted Gomez to consider a strict no-phones policy.
“She is going back and forth on whether or not to allow people to have their phones as an extra measure of security and privacy, along with the fact that she wants everyone to be present,” the source added.
It is a valid concern, given the star-studded names set to attend the wedding.
In addition, paparazzi are bound to circle, making airtight security a necessity.
Selena Gomez And Benny Blanco Struggle With Final Details

Despite the looming date and mounting pressure, not every detail is locked in.
In fact, Blanco recently suggested they haven’t done much planning at all.
“We’ve both been working so much,” he said during a recent podcast interview, downplaying their progress.
Behind the scenes, however, sources say the couple has made key decisions, just not all of them.
“As for food, venue, who to have there, music choices—that is pretty much locked down,” said the second insider. “Everything is there, the plan just has to be put in motion. A lot of last-minute confirmations have to be made, so some stuff might go down to the wire, but they are all confident it will go off without a hitch.”
Still, the couple has reportedly been procrastinating on certain logistics, like seating arrangements and speech assignments.
Selena Gomez’s Montecito Wedding Will Be A Star-Studded Affair

Despite the challenges, the wedding is still set to be one of the most glamorous celebrity events of the year.
The two-day celebration will reportedly take place in Montecito, California, a picturesque enclave known for its ultra-private celebrity residents, including Meghan Markle, Oprah Winfrey, and Gwyneth Paltrow.
Invitations have already gone out, and guests are reportedly being vetted with heightened care.
Taylor Swift is just one of the A-listers expected to attend, fresh off her appearance at Gomez’s recent birthday bash. Her presence adds even more intrigue, and likely more cameras.
Meanwhile, Gomez’s "Only Murders" castmates, including Steve Martin and Martin Short, are also on the confirmed list.
