Selena Gomez's Yacht Bash in Cabo: Taylor Swift MIA or Just Busy?

Selena Gomez, 33, was pictured letting loose in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico on Sunday, during what is rumored to be her bachelorette party

SELENA GOMEZ CELEBRATES LAST FLING BEFORE THE WEDDING!

The countdown has begun, folks! Selena Gomez is getting ready to say "I do" to her music producer fiancé Benny Blanco in just a few months, and she's making sure to give herself one last hoorah before the big day. The 33-year-old pop star was spotted living it up in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico over the weekend with a group of gal pals, including Ashley Cook, Raquelle Stevens, Courtney Lopez, and her cousin Priscilla Marie.

But what made this getaway even more special? It's rumored to be Selena's bachelorette party! And, let me tell you, the singer was looking absolutely stunning in a $78 one-piece strapless black swimsuit from VYB Swim. The outfit was so on-point that we can't help but wonder who designed it.

The actress — who is preparing to tie the knot with music producer Benny Blanco, 37 — was seen enjoying a sunny getaway on a luxury yacht with a number of her closest gal pals

As for Benny, he was busy having his own fun in Las Vegas with approximately 25 friends, according to DeuxMoi. We're guessing they were all celebrating their upcoming nuptials in style!

Now, let's get down to business. Sources close to the couple have revealed that getting Taylor Swift on board for the wedding has been a bit of a challenge. It seems like the "Bad Blood" singer has been too busy with her own schedule to attend Selena's big day, but don't worry, she's still planning to make an appearance – along with her NFL star beau Travis Kelce.

But what about the bride-to-be? We've got all the deets on Selena's wedding plans. The Texas native has been open about ditching the traditional bride and groom dance at their reception because, let's face it, they're a bit too awkward for our girl. However, she does plan to make room for some special moments – like a deeply meaningful dance with her grandfather.

As we all know, Selena's Nana was an incredible cook, and we can't help but wonder if she'll be making an appearance at the wedding. Speaking of food, Selena has revealed that she wants to serve a very non-traditional dessert at her reception – biscuits and gravy! Yes, you read that right; it sounds like something your Nana used to make.

The star recently took to Rare Beauty's TikTok account to share some fun details about the big day. When asked what dish she'd choose as her wedding dessert, Selena exclaimed: "My preferred dessert would be biscuits and gravy – My Nana’s biscuits and gravy! That sounds like dessert to me." She also revealed that she doesn't want a traditional cake at her reception.

Now, let's get back to the fun stuff. We know that Benny has been working hard on their joint album with Selena, but we're guessing he's had to take some time off for bachelor party duties. After all, you can only make music with your fiancée for so long before you need a break.

The couple got engaged in December 2023, and it seems like they've been making the most of their relationship ever since. In an interview with Richard Wilkins on Australia's Today show, Benny gushed about life after getting engaged: "Most people when they get engaged they plan a wedding, but you and Selena make an album."

When asked to spill more details about their music-making process, Benny revealed that it all started as a fun activity at home. "We just started making music in our house as a little fun activity and then all of a sudden we had one song, then two songs, then three songs, then four songs," he explained.

But the most romantic part? Benny admitted that working with Selena was an absolute dream: "She was just a joy to work with and it was better to work with her than anyone else because at the end of the day I get to kiss her too."

And speaking of kissing, we can't help but wonder if Ed Sheeran will be attending Benny's wedding. According to sources, Benny squashed rumors that his friend had already RSVP'd, saying: "I just told him [Ed], 'I'm gonna have a wedding and you're gonna come to the wedding.'"

Multiple sources close to the couple have revealed to The Scholarly Note that Selena and Benny are set to tie the knot in September. And when they do, it's going to be an intimate affair with only close friends and family in attendance.

So there you have it, folks! It seems like Selena Gomez is ready to give herself one last hoorah before her big day. Who knows what other surprises she has up her sleeve? Only time will tell, but one thing's for sure – we can't wait to see these two lovebirds exchange their vows and start their new life together.

UPDATE: We've got more deets on Selena's wedding plans! According to sources close to the couple, they're planning a small ceremony with only 50-60 guests in attendance. That means Taylor Swift will be among the lucky few who get to witness this special moment.

And what about Benny? Sources claim he's been spotted at several high-end Vegas resorts, getting ready for his bachelor party extravaganza! We can't wait to see how these two lovebirds celebrate their last days as singles.
