Selena Gomez’s wedding day was filled with love, laughter… and major family drama behind the scenes!
The 33-year-old singer and actress tied the knot with music producer Benny Blanco, 37, in a lavish Santa Barbara ceremony on Saturday, September 27 — but one bold decision left her mother Mandy Teefey heartbroken.
In a move no one saw coming, Selena reportedly chose her grandfather, David Cornett, to walk her down the aisle — a decision that allegedly left Mandy and stepdad Brian devastated.
“They were shattered,” a family insider spilled. “It was a real shock. Everyone just assumed Mandy would have the honor.”
Sources say Selena made the heartfelt choice early in the planning process, and when she asked David, he and wife Debbie were overcome with emotion, breaking down in tears of joy.

But the family rift didn’t dampen the glitz of the big day. The star-studded guest list included none other than Taylor Swift, who was spotted arriving on Friday under a sea of umbrellas, clutching a mysterious white box.
The festivities kicked off Friday night with an exclusive rehearsal dinner at a private estate in Hope Ranch. And yes — Selena’s Only Murders in the Building co-stars Martin Short, Paul Rudd, and Steve Martin were seen suited up and headed to the celebration.
As for the bride? She stunned in a custom gown, keeping the spotlight firmly on her — and perhaps, sending a not-so-subtle message that this day was hers alone!
