Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco Tie the Knot in Intimate California Ceremony

27 September 2025

After years of friendship and a shared musical journey Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco said “I do” on September 27, 2025 in a quietly elegant wedding that merged romance and artistry. The couple, who publicly confirmed their relationship in December 2023 and got engaged at the end of 2024, chose Santa Barbara for the ceremony, surrounded by family and close friends in a setting that felt both personal and cinematic.

Gomez selected a custom Ralph Lauren halter-neck gown embroidered with floral motifs while Blanco complemented her in a classic black Ralph Lauren tuxedo. The two looked effortlessly matched yet individually expressive. The ceremony was held at the Sea Crest Nursery in Hope Ranch, and about 170 guests attended. Among them were names from Gomez’s world: Taylor Swift, Martin Short, Steve Martin, and her Only Murders in the Building co-stars.

Before the wedding, the couple held pre-celebrations elsewhere: Gomez’s friends gathered in Cabo San Lucas for her bachelorette event, while Blanco’s party took place in Las Vegas. Afterward the guests made their way to Santa Barbara for the main event.

In announcing the news Gomez took to Instagram to share a series of photos and clips from their day captioned simply “🤍 9.27.25 🤍.” The images felt intimate: she smoothing Blanco’s bowtie, them holding hands, moments of laughter, and candid softness. Blanco commented under the post: “My wife in real life.”

Their relationship began long before romance was part of the equation. Blanco had contributed production to Gomez’s projects years earlier, including tracks such as “Same Old Love” and “Kill Em with Kindness.” In 2019 they collaborated on “I Can’t Get Enough,” and later on her 2023 single “Single Soon,” a history that now underscores how their personal and musical lives entwined.

In March 2025 they released their first joint album I Said I Love You First, a creative statement that chronicled their evolving connection. The album became a symbol of how their artistic paths had converged.

During the wedding speeches and celebrations many spoke about how deeply the couple supports one another. Gomez, known for navigating the pressures of fame, described how safe she feels with Blanco. Blanco echoed that sentiment, calling Blanco his best friend and expressing hopes for their life ahead, including the possibility of starting a family.

Attendees say the wedding was deliberately low on spectacle and high on emotional resonance. The couple opted to infuse personal touches favorite foods, relaxed moments, laughter, tears, and intention. Instead of staging everything for show they leaned into vulnerability and authenticity.

In choosing the location, the guest list, the design of the dress and the tone of the festivities Gomez and Blanco seemed to commit to a vision of partnership grounded in equality, creative sensibility, and emotional truth. They didn’t just get married, they framed their union as an extension of who they are as artists and people.

This wedding moment marks a new chapter not only for their love but for their legacy. As they step into this future together, their story will continue to be told in music, visuals, performance and everyday life. Their marriage is also a powerful statement: love can be art, and art can be love.
