From breaking up with the Jo Bros to speeches at their weddings, Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez's relationship has to be one of the most adorable celeb friendships ever.
On Saturday 27th September 2025, Selena and Benny Blanco officially married, saying 'I do' surrounded by friends and family. Among the guests was none other than global superstar Taylor Swift.
Taylor and Selena have been friends since 2008 when they were dating Joe Jonas and Nick Jonas, respectively. The pair bonded during their relationships with the brothers and even more so when they went through their breakups.
Now, 17 years later, the pair are still showing each other support in their love lives as it was reported that Taylor, and fellow industry bestie Ed Sheeran, gave a speech at Selena and Benny's wedding.
What did Taylor Swift say in her speech at Selena Gomez's wedding?
Taylor’s speech addressed Selena’s past heartbreaks and her love story with Benny, according to an Us Weekly source
"Taylor gave an extremely heartfelt speech at the wedding," they said. "She went into depth and talked about how over the years she saw Selena on the floor crying, mentioning exes, Selena having a broken heart and saying how happy she is that Selena has Benny now."
Similarly, sources told the Daily Mail: "[Taylor] said that whenever one of them had their hearts broken from failed relationships over the years, they were always there for each other.
"[It was only] when Selena finally came to the realisation that she was just fine with who she was, and concentrated on being just her, that she fell in love with Benny."
A source told People, that as well as Ed and Taylor, Selena's mum Mandy Teefey and her stepdad Brian Teefey shared speeches during the nuptials. Benny's parents, Sandra and Andrew Levin, also gave speeches.
Speaking about the magical day, the insider revealed: "At the reception, everyone was letting loose and celebrating them well into the night. The vibe was so much fun.
"They were glowing all night, and both Selena and Benny couldn’t stop smiling. There was so much love in the room."
When Selena's engagement to Benny was announced, Taylor adorably commented: "yes I will be the flower girl." While it wasn't said that the 'Fortnight' singer was the couple's flower girl, she was certainly a big part of their special day.
A week before the release of her 12th album 'The Life of a Showgirl', Taylor was spotted arriving in California the day before the wedding in pictures obtained by Page Six. The same day, Taylor reportedly attended the couple's rehearsal dinner at a country mansion in Goleta’s tony Hope Ranch neighbourhood.
The following day Taylor attended the wedding held at the romantic Sea Crest Nursery. Sharing the news of her marriage, Selena posted a carousel of wedding pics on Instagram alongside the caption: "🤍 9.27.25 🤍"
