A Fairytale Wedding & Stunning Moments

  • Gomez wore a custom halter-style gown by Ralph Lauren for the main ceremony and later changed into a second lace, fairytale-inspired dress during the celebrations.

  • Benny Blanco’s comment on one of her posts: “My wife in real life,” immediately became one of the most quoted lines in the buzz surrounding the wedding.

  • Among the guests were big names like Taylor Swift, Steve Martin, Martin Short, Paul Rudd, Paris Hilton, Ed Sheeran, and more.

  • A particularly touching moment shared by Gomez’s mother, Mandy Teefey: Selena was walked down the aisle by her grandfather, David Michael Cornett—a “fairytale come

  • true” moment in her mother’s words.


The Backstory: Love, Collaboration & Music

Their relationship has roots in creative connection. Gomez and Blanco have collaborated before, and their shared passion for music laid the foundation for much more.

Earlier this year, the pair released a joint album titled I Said I Love You First, which debuted at #2 on the Billboard 200—a milestone for Gomez. The album’s lead single “Call Me When You Break Up” (featuring Gracie Abrams), along with tracks like “Sunset Blvd” and “Younger and Hotter Than Me,” helped define the creative arc of their journey together.

Style & Wedding Trends

Selena’s bridal choices are already sparking trend talk. Fashion journalists are pointing out how her halter silhouette may reignite interest in that style for weddings in 2025. Her second, lace-heavy gown adds another layer of romance to the narrative.

What This Means Going Forward

This marriage is more than a personal milestone: for fans and observers, it symbolizes the intersection of Selena’s life and art. Their collaboration hinted at a deeper connection; now, they’re officially living it. As Gomez continues her work in music, acting, and beauty, and Blanco keeps pushing in the producer and songwriting space, this new chapter promises both personal fulfillment and creative evolution.
