Spring has officially arrived and so has the ultimate wedding season. With the exciting news of Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s engagement, fans everywhere are buzzing with one question: What will their wedding be like? The couple, who have quickly become one of the internet’s favorite love stories, frequently share sweet glimpses into their relationship, from heartfelt support of each other’s careers to deeply personal loving moments.
Benny, in particular, has charmed fans with his grand romantic gestures, even organizing a fun prom photo surprise for Selena, her first-ever prom experience. With that kind of flair for the sentimental, it’s hard not to imagine their wedding being truly memorable. But will it be a lavish celebrity spectacle or a more intimate affair?
To find clues – or simply indulge in some wedding inspiration – Access Hollywood looks back at some of the most extravagant celebrity weddings of all time.
Victoria Beckham & David Beckham
Posh Spice Victoria Beckham (née Adams) and David Beckham married in 1999 at Luttrellstown Castle in Dublin. The wedding reportedly included 250 guests, an 18-piece orchestra, sit-down dinner and 400 staff – not to mention the bride’s Vera Wang gown with a 20-foot train – that all cost approximately $800,000 at the time. In 2025, the price tag would run upwards of $1.5 million. Living up to the name and persona, it was a truly posh wedding
Priyanka Chopra & Nick Jonas
Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas tied the knot in 2018 with a lavish, multi-day celebration that beautifully honored both of their cultures. The festivities included traditional Indian and Western ceremonies as a nod to the bride and groom’s respective heritages. Estimated to have cost about $2.5 million, the celebration took place at the gorgeous Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur. With Priyanka’s unforgettable 75-foot veil and a royal backdrop, it sure was a wedding to remember.
George Clooney & Amal Clooney
In 2014, hearts broke around the world when longtime bachelor George Clooney tied the knot with Amal Alamuddin, a lawyer and human rights activist. The couple said “I do” in an extravagant ceremony at Venice’s iconic Cipriani hotel that may have cost nearly $4.6 million. Reflecting on their 10th anniversary last year, Clooney told Access that he and Amal are still having fun and finding joy in the little surprises and everyday details of marriage, sharing that they’re “enjoying all the things they thought were true and are having a really fun time.”
Elton John & David Furnish
Another couple who celebrated their 10th anniversary last year were Elton John and David Furnish. The music icon and his husband hosted their wedding in December 2014, just months after marriage equality became legal in the U.K. Surrounded by 600 guests, the couple hosted an unforgettable celebration with family and friends. The event reportedly cost around $2 million, with a generous portion going toward luxurious touches like champagne and caviar.
Jessica Biel & Justin Timberlake
In 2012, Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake chose the Borgo Egnazia resort in Puglia, Italy, for their reported $6.5 million wedding. A star-studded event at a 28-villa hotel was just the cherry on top. Jessica was pretty in pink in a custom Giambattista Valli Haute couture gown that is rumored to have cost about $100,000.
From royal palaces to historic castles, these celebrity weddings have set the bar sky-high when it comes to glamour, sentiment, and unforgettable moments. Weddings mark the first day of a couple’s long journey together, which is why every detail, down to the silverware, makes a huge difference.
Now, all eyes are on Selena and Benny as they prepare to write their own chapter in Hollywood wedding history. Will they opt for an extravagant, star-studded affair like many before them, or keep things sweet and personal, true to the heartfelt tone of their relationship so far? Whether it’s a grand celebration or an intimate gathering, one thing’s for sure: if their wedding is anything like their love story, it’s bound to be both meaningful and magical.
