Selena Gomez And Benny Blanco Are Married! Inside Their USD 4 Million Santa Barbara Wedding

Selena Marie Gomez and Benjamin Joseph Levin, aka Benny Blanco, are officially husband and wife, and fans definitely can’t ‘calm down’! The 33-year-old singer and the 37-year-old hit-making producer tied the knot in an intimate yet star-studded ceremony dripping in vintage charm, surrounded by her family and A-list friends. Here’s an inside scoop on the romantic ceremony by the sea that was nothing short of an extravagant affair.

Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco exchange vows in a lush Santa Barbara venue

On September 27, 2025 (ET), Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco took each other as husband and wife, in sickness and in health, for the rest of their lives. The Same Old Love singer herself confirmed their union with dreamy photos from the wedding on her Instagram. The star-studded affair took place at Sea Crest Nursery, a lush, private venue in Santa Barbara.

If reports are to be believed, the couple spent more than USD 4 million on the weekend-long celebration, which included a rehearsal dinner at a Hope Ranch estate on Friday night and a lavish reception under white tents on Saturday.

Guests were put up at the luxurious El Encanto Hotel, where rooms reportedly cost around USD 3,500 per night. Before the main ceremony, Benny Blanco had his bachelor party at a USD 25,000-a-night villa in Las Vegas, and Selena Gomez enjoyed a lavish yacht-filled bachelorette getaway in Cabo San Lucas, adding to the couple’s opulent pre-wedding festivities.

Who were the guests at Gomez and Blanco’s wedding?

Despite being one of Hollywood’s most famous couples, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s wedding was a tight-knit affair, attended only by those closest to the couple. The 170-person guest list was a star-studded one, stacked with the Ring singer’s closest friends and longtime collaborators. 

Gomez’s music BFF and hype woman, Taylor Swift, was present in the ceremony as she cheered for the bride and groom, after years of waiting to be the flower girl in Selena’s wedding. Her Only Murders in the Building co-stars Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Paul Rudd were spotted at the venue. Other stars included Paris Hilton, Ed Sheeran, Ashley Park, and Gomez’s Wizards of Waverly Place co-star, David Henrie.

All about the wedding dress and the details

For the highly anticipated big day, Selena turned into a classic bride, walking down the aisle in a custom Ralph Lauren halter-neck satin gown, hand-draped and embroidered. Keeping with the soft and minimalistic vibe, the gown was just perfectly paired with platinum-and-diamond earrings from Tiffany & Co. The groom, Blanco, matched Gomez’s elegant ensemble in a classic Ralph Lauren tuxedo with a ruffled button-down shirt and a bowtie.

According to Vogue, Ralph Lauren personally approved the intricate design, adding to its timeless value. Contrary to the traditional roses, Selena carried a bouquet of lily of the valley, a flower symbolising purity and happiness. Adding to the chic and romantic ceremony were the gold-embossed invitations with interlocking S & B monograms and delicate baby’s breath sprigs.

A glimpse into Selena and Benny’s relationship timeline

Although they might have started dating a few years back, Gomez and Blanco’s story spans more than a decade. Their first collaboration happened in 2015 when Benny produced two songs for Selena's Revival album: Kill 'Em with Kindness and Same Old Love, both of which became iconic chartbusters. However, that time, it was a strictly professional collaboration, and the romance happened much later. And it was Selena who made the first move!

In December 2023, after quietly dating for six months, Gomez confirmed the relationship, calling Blanco “the best thing that’s ever happened to me.” Within a year, in December 2024, Blanco popped the question in an unconventional yet unbelievably wholesome manner: during a cosy picnic complete with Taco Bell takeout.

The music producer and singer surprised Gomez with a gigantic six-carat marquise diamond engagement ring, which, according to popular estimates, costs around USD 1.5 million. Sharing the big news, Selena simply wrote, “Forever begins now…” Her fiancé, Benny, cheekily wrote in the comment, "Hey, wait… that’s my wife!”

What’s next for the newly-married couple?

Now officially husband and wife, Blanco and Gomez are all set to enter a life full of adventures and new beginnings. The couple, who released a joint album titled I Said I Love You First earlier this year, also purchased a Beverly Hills mansion worth USD 35 million in late 2024. Both have been open about hoping to start a family.

From collaborating on chart-topping hits to saying ‘I do’, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s slow-burn love story has been years in the making. We congratulate the newlyweds on this new chapter of their lives.
