Selena Gomez Shares Unexpected Wedding Menu & Touching Family Tribute
Hollywood, July 27, 2025 — Pop superstar Selena Gomez is known for doing things her own way — and her wedding plans with fiancé Benny Blanco are no exception.
The 33-year-old Only Murders in the Building actress recently took to her Rare Beauty TikTok account to reveal charming and unconventional details about her upcoming big day, leaving fans both surprised and deeply moved.
A Wedding Dessert Like No Other
In a moment that’s gone viral for its authenticity, Selena said she plans to skip the traditional wedding cake and instead enjoy a nostalgic Southern treat.
“My preferred dessert would be biscuits and gravy,” she said with a smile.
“My Nana’s biscuits and gravy. That sounds like dessert to me.”
While she’ll still have a small cake for her and Benny — “just for us” — Selena made it clear she’s prioritizing meaning over tradition, even planning to freeze the mini cake as a keepsake.
From Music to Marriage
Selena and music producer Benny Blanco, 37, got engaged in December 2024 after publicly confirming their relationship a year earlier. Benny proposed with a jaw-dropping $1 million diamond ring, which Selena showed off in a heartfelt post captioned, “Forever starts now.”
The couple, who bonded while working on their joint album, I Said I Love You First, began creating music at home as a fun project. “Then all of a sudden we had four songs,” Benny revealed during a June interview on Australia’s Today show.
Skipping the First Dance, But Not the Emotion
Selena also revealed she’s doing away with the traditional first dance with her groom. “They’re a little — I feel embarrassed,” she admitted on the Table Manners podcast.
But one special dance will still happen — a deeply emotional moment with her grandfather.
“He never got the chance to walk my mom down the aisle,” she shared.
“I wanted to give him that opportunity.”
Fans have praised the singer for her vulnerability and family-first approach to the wedding.
A Wedding Full of Heart, Not Hype
As the ceremony nears, Selena and Benny continue to craft a celebration that reflects their personalities, shared values, and deep family ties. No flashy spectacles, no over-the-top guest lists — just real love and meaningful memories.
With millions eagerly awaiting more details, one thing is clear: Selena Gomez’s wedding may not follow tradition — but it will be unforgettable.
