Selena Gomez's Cabo Bachelorette Party Was Surprisingly Relatable
With her nuptials to Benny Blanco quickly approaching, Selena Gomez did what most to-be-weds do: she celebrated the end of her single era with a bachelorette party. The bride-to-be jetted off to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico with a select group of VIPs at the end of August. The tropical trip was proof that celebrities really are just like the rest of us. According to The Knot 2025 Real Weddings Study, which surveyed roughly 17,000 people who got married in 2024, 75% of respondents said they had a bachelorette party. It's one of the most common prewedding events, and it's one we can always get behind. After all, why not take an excuse to travel somewhere beautiful with your nearest and dearest?
As The Knot's celebrity news editor, I'm always scouring photos of celebrity bachelorette parties. And, unsurprisingly, they're not always the *most* attainable events. (Who can forget Hailey Bieber's raunchy weekend in West Hollywood, or Lauren Sánchez's fête in France?) What struck me about Selena Gomez's bachelorette party was just how relatable it was. The singer's home rental was decked out in bride merch, heart-shaped balloons and paraphernalia with her new last name. (Did you know she'll be Mrs. Levin, not Mrs. Blanco?) The photos looked like a scene from a bach party you'd see on your Instagram feed, which is why I loved it so much. Here's a peek inside her prewedding festivities, along with links to her (rather affordable) merch and attire.

Inside Selena Gomez's Bachelorette Party
So, what exactly happened at Selena Gomez's bachelorette party? Thanks to her Instagram photo dump, we got an inside look at the coastal affair. The singer traveled to Mexico with her besties for a few days of sun, sea and sand at the end of August. It was the perfect time for this prewedding party, as insider reports allege that she's preparing to tie the knot in Southern California this September.
In a recap video set to Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream," aka the smash hit single her fiancé helped produce back in 2010, Gomez could be seen arriving at her oceanfront villa as a Mariachi band welcomed her with a live performance while waving cutouts of Blanco's face. (Meanwhile, he was off enjoying his bachelor party in Las Vegas at the same time.) Her crew decked out their home away from home with traditional bach party decor like bubble letters, balloon arches and streamers. In other words, the snaps looked like something that could have come from your own bridal party group chat.
Throughout their stay, the bride-to-be enjoyed all the classic bachelorette party activities: pool time (complete with a bride floatie), boating excursions, fancy dinners and impromptu dance parties. The crew even watched one of the most iconic wedding movies, Wedding Crashers, on a projector set up on the beach. I can't think of a better bach party activity, TBH.

What's a bachelorette party without a mini bride veil? Gomez rocked this apropos hair accessory with a pearl-encrusted mini bachelorette party dress and her shell bridal bikini (which we've tracked down below). At $15, it's an affordable (and adorable) way to level-up your bach 'fits.

Fact: no bridal ensemble is complete without a sash. Gomez also donned this sparkly accessory throughout her vacation, which features the phrase "Bride to Be" in glittery rhinestone lettering.

If your bach party rental has a pool, bridal floaties are a must. Gomez lounged on this clear "Bride" blow-up, which has colorful heart-shaped confetti inside—the perfect accompaniment for a poolside photoshoot.
LSPACE Sunrise Shell Bikini Top in Cream
Did someone say seashells and wedding bells? Bridal bikinis don't get cuter than this one from LSPACE, which is the exact set Gomez wore on the coastline overlooking the Pacific ocean. With shell-shaped cups, it's a must for any beachy wedding getaway, from your bach party to your honeymoon.
LSPACE Lucia Bikini Bottom in Cream
Don't forget the matching bottoms! We love this off-white set, which has side ties adorned with pearlescent beads for a look that's oh-so-mermaid inspired.
