Pop star-actress Selena Gomez and producer-songwriter Benn y Blanco exchanged wedding vows on Saturday in an intimate ceremony held in Santa Barbara County, California. The pair confirmed the marriage via Gomez’s Instagram, and Blanco responded with a heartfelt comment: “My wife in real life.”
The event was held at the scenic grounds of the Sea Crest Nursery, where the couple welcomed around 170 guests in a lush, tented outdoor setting. Guests reportedly included close friends and high-profile names such as Taylor Swift, Paul Rudd, Steve Martin, Martin Short, Paris Hilton, Ed Sheeran, and others from Gomez’s Only Murders in the Building cast and network.
Gomez chose a custom Ralph Lauren gown, featuring a halter neckline, delicate floral appliqués, and a dramatic open back, while Blanco wore a coordinating black Ralph Lauren tuxedo with a bow tie. Hairstylist Renato Campora styled Gomez’s hair in elegant Hollywood waves, and her jewelry included platinum and diamond earrings by Tiffany & Co.
The couple, aged 33 and 37 respectively, had cultivated both a personal and artistic relationship before tying the knot. They met through industry circles and had worked together on multiple music projects over the years, including the 2019 single “I Can’t Get Enough.” In December 2024, Blanco proposed with a marquise diamond ring — a gesture Gomez helped design herself — and the engagement was publicly confirmed that same month. Earlier this year, the couple released a joint album, I Said I Love You First, chronicling their journey together.
While the two managed to keep many details under wraps, social media lit up with support shortly after the announcement. Gomez posted images and video clips from the ceremony with the caption “9.27.25,” and followers, celebrities, and brands flooded the comments with congratulations. The Only Murders in the Building account quipped, “Our Mabel is MARRIED,” and Gomez’s beauty company Rare Beauty posted, “so happy for you two.”
For Gomez, once a child actress and Disney Channel luminary, this union marks a new chapter in a career that has spanned music, film, television, and entrepreneurship. Blanco, meanwhile, consolidates his reputation as a major behind-the-scenes force in pop, having co-written and produced chart-topping records for stars like Katy Perry, Britney Spears, and Maroon 5.
As fans celebrate worldwide, the marriage of Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco stands as one of 2025’s most talked-about celebrity weddings — a blending of creative partnership and lifelong commitment.
