Selena Gomez Talks ‘Sweet’ First Wedding Anniversary Celebration With Benny Blanco: ‘We’re So Cheesy’

3 sources →

Selena Gomez recently discussed celebrating her first wedding anniversary with producer Benny Blanco. Speaking at the fourth annual Rare Impact Fund Benefit in Los Angeles, Gomez described the September 27th anniversary as a low-key event where the couple ate a piece of their original wedding cake and watched their wedding videos in pajamas. The couple married in 2025 in Santa Barbara, California, after approximately two years of dating. The anniversary celebration included a tradition of eating year-old wedding cake, which was notably impacted by a humorous incident involving Gomez’s Only Murders in the Building co-star Martin Short, who accidentally ate part of the cake at the wedding thinking it was a prop or intended for guest sections.
