In a shocking turn of events, Taylor Swift has arrived in Santa Barbara, California, to attend her longtime friend Selena Gomez's highly anticipated wedding to record producer Benny Blanco. The 35-year-old superstar jetted in from Kansas City just after 1:30 pm local time, leaving fans wondering if she'd make it to the big day.
Paparazzi caught a glimpse of Swift disembarking from her private plane, looking effortlessly chic in a black short-sleeve top and carrying a black bag. Her security entourage was also on hand, unloading a few small bags from the plane, including what appeared to be a garment bag and a white box.
But don't worry, folks – Swift won't be traveling solo for long! A three-car convoy whisked her away to the luxurious Rosewood Miramar in Montecito, where she'll be staying in style. The swanky property boasts rooms with breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean and Miramar beach, but don't get too jealous – it starts at a whopping $1,014-per-night!
Despite being without her fiancé Travis Kelce, who's stuck back home due to the Kansas City Chiefs' big game against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, Swift couldn't resist joining Gomez for what promises to be an unforgettable weekend of wedding festivities. The fun kicks off with a rehearsal feast tonight, followed by the main ceremony tomorrow in a secluded garden setting in Goleta.
The venue, which has been buzzing with activity all week, boasts several white marquees set among palm trees and cycads on a stunning 17-acre estate. And don't even get us started on the string lights – they're literally twinkling between the tents! But what's really getting people talking is the rumored post-wedding show featuring none other than Snoop Dogg!
Gomez has spared no expense to ensure her nuptials are as safe and secure as possible, reportedly shelling out a whopping $300,000 for top-notch security. And it seems she's willing to splurge on every detail – after all, this is the wedding of the year! With a guest list of over 300 A-listers, including hotel heiress Paris Hilton and Gomez's Only Murders in the Building co-stars Martin Short and Steve Martin, you can bet your bottom dollar that this weekend will be one for the books.
Swift aside, most of the guest list is staying at the swanky El Encanto luxury spa resort in Santa Barbara – yes, folks, it starts at $1,000-per-night! And with the property being sold out for the weekend, you know everyone's going to be there in style. So who will be the first to spill all the juicy details from behind the scenes?
