Selena Gomez “had a dream” for her wedding since she was a child.
The 34-year-old star married Benny Blanco in Santa Barbara, California in September 2025, and the record producer has revealed that Selena got to fulfil a childhood dream on her wedding day.
Speaking on his Friends Keep Secrets podcast, Benny shared: “We rented a palm tree farm and converted it into a — we just wanted to do something unconventional and Selena … she had a dream for a wedding since she was a kid.
“She’s like, ‘I want to walk down the aisle and I want the aisle to be, like, Persian rugs off centered. I don’t want normal flowers. I don’t want it to feel bougie.’
“So it was, like, incredible and you could tell we put so much effort into it, but also didn’t feel, like, stuffy.”
An insider previously revealed that the “vibe was so much fun” on Benny and Selena’s wedding day.
The source told People: “There was so much love in the room.
“The ceremony moved guests to tears. They wrote their own vows, which were both funny and sentimental.”
Meanwhile, Selena previously confessed that she never imagined herself dating Benny.
But the singer – who has also dated the likes of Justin Bieber and The Weeknd – admitted that her attitude changed the more they worked together.
During an appearance on the Therapuss with Jake Shane podcast, Selena shared: “I was so not … you know when you realise you’re not in that place anymore you need to be where you are? It’s all about timing to meet that person even if I did think, ‘Oh I need to take this a step forward then it wouldn’t have worked’. Simply you just have to be there mentally in order to move forward with something healthy.
“Then we reunited for Single Soon … it wasn’t our favourite … just because I can say this cause I’m marrying him. Just really wasn’t what I thought I wanted so he came in and he agrees on a lot of levels but he just came in and I was like oh ‘Hi Benny’ and we spoke for two hours and I asked him to hook me up with anybody that he knew that was cute and he was like, ‘Oh we do these things, these dinner nights. You should come’ … and next thing you know we’re dating.”
