Selena Gomez, the Grammy-nominated pop star and actress, has officially tied the knot with music producer Benny Blanco. The couple exchanged vows in Santa Barbara, California, on Saturday in a private yet star-studded ceremony attended by close friends and celebrities.
Gomez, 33, stunned in a white halter-neck wedding gown, while Blanco, 37, looked dapper in a dark tuxedo. The singer shared photos of the big day on Instagram, captioning her post with “9.27.26” bookended by heart emojis. Blanco responded with a heartfelt comment: “My wife in real life.”
According to Vogue, about 170 guests attended the wedding, including Gomez’s longtime friend Taylor Swift, actor Paul Rudd, and her Only Murders in the Building co-stars Steve Martin and Martin Short.
The wedding marks a milestone in the couple’s relationship. Gomez and Blanco announced their engagement in December 2024 after a year of dating. Their love story has been intertwined with music, having collaborated on several projects over the years. In March, they released their joint album I Said I Love You First, which chronicles their relationship.
The duo has previously worked together on hits such as Same Old Love and Kill Em with Kindness in 2015, and the 2019 track I Can’t Get Enough alongside Tainy and J Balvin.
Gomez first rose to fame on Disney Channel’s Wizards of Waverly Place before launching her successful music career, which has included multiple UK top 10 singles. She recently starred in Emilia Perez, playing Jessica Del Monte. Blanco, meanwhile, is best known for producing hits for stars like Katy Perry, Britney Spears, and Kesha, in addition to releasing his own album Friends Keep Secrets in 2018.
The California ceremony was both intimate and glamorous, perfectly blending Hollywood sparkle with heartfelt emotion. Fans and friends worldwide have flooded social media with congratulatory messages, celebrating this new chapter for Gomez and Blanco.
