Selena Gomez exchanged vows with American music producer and songwriter Benny Blanco on Sept 27.
The American singer-actress, 33, announced the happy news on Instagram, sharing photos and video clips from the nuptials with the simple caption “9.27.25” between two silver heart emojis.
“My wife in real life,” wrote Blanco, 37, responding to Gomez’s post.
The photos captured the sweet and intimate moments between the Ralph Lauren-clad couple. The bride wore a white halter bridal dress with floral flourishes, while the groom looked sharp in a custom tuxedo.
Among the 170 guests at the private ceremony, held at a sprawling estate in Santa Barbara, California, were Gomez’s Only Murders In The Building (2021 to present) co-stars Martin Short and Steve Martin.
She said on US talk show The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Sept 10 that Short, 75, would be her “ring bearer”. Martin, 80, also teased about presenting Gomez with the “perfect wedding gift”.
Pop star Taylor Swift, who has been friends with Gomez for 17 years since they met backstage at a Jonas Brothers concert in 2008, was also spotted at the wedding, without her fiance Travis Kelce. The NFL player was absent due to his Kansas City Chiefs schedule.
Blanco and Gomez met in 2015 when he co-produced her single Same Old Love. They also collaborated on her 2019 hit I Can’t Get Enough and Single Soon in 2023.
The couple went public in 2023 and announced their engagement via Instagram on Dec 11, 2024.
The pair are known for openly showering praises on each other. Gomez frequently posts photos of their outings on Instagram, while Blanco’s TikTok often features him cooking for Gomez.
