In her pursuit of bridal perfection, Selena Gomez ensured that every element of her wedding attire gleamed—quite literally.
The 33-year-old bride dazzled in an exquisite collection of diamond accessories that perfectly complemented her elegant wedding dress as she exchanged vows with her husband, Benny Blanco (yes, that’s Benjamin Joseph Levin for those not in the loop) on Saturday, September 27.
Donning a pair of 12-carat diamond earrings from Tiffany & Co., Gomez infused her halter-neck satin gown designed by Ralph Lauren with a touch of classic Hollywood allure. Later in the celebration, she opted for a stunning lacy ensemble complemented by a flowing veil.
Blanco didn’t skimp on style either, sporting a Ralph Lauren tuxedo alongside a traditional gold wedding band, which he juiced up with a bedazzled watch and a diamond tennis bracelet to match his bride’s bling.
Gomez showcased not just one, but three lavish rings: a delicate diamond band, a pavé-set eternity ring, and her new wedding band, flawlessly matching her marquise-cut engagement ring.
According to Ann Grimmett, VP of Merchandising at Jared Jewelers, the main diamond in Gomez’s engagement ring is a six-carat gem valued at around $225,000. She noted that marquise diamonds are a rarity, representing less than five percent of all diamonds in circulation.
It seems Gomez paid a subtle homage to her 2015 hit “Good for You” with her dazzling choices. In the song, she declares, “I’m on my marquise diamonds,” a lyric that might make one muse about the nature of wealth and celebrity.
Before stepping into her new role as Mrs. Levin, the Only Murders in the Building star sought assistance from Joico hair artist Renato Campora.
In a press release shared with Us Weekly, Campora reflected, “To prepare Selena Gomez’s hair for this joyous celebration, every detail needed to be impeccable.” He painted a vivid picture of the meticulous process, which began with double washes using Joico Defy Damage Protective Shampoo, followed by a 30-minute treatment with the Joico Defy Damage KBOND20 Power Masque.
As for those immaculate curls, Campora utilized a three-quarter-inch rod to create a classic marcel wave, pinning each curl to maintain its shape. Once the curls cooled for a steady 20 minutes, he brushed through them gently to unify the waves, focusing on those face-framing strands. A finishing spray was used to cement the style.
Campora took great pride in commenting, “The final outcome was a timeless and healthy-looking Hollywood Glamour Marcel Wave Bob, the perfect accompaniment to a day filled with love, beauty, and perfection.”
Among the guests gracing the affair were family and friends, including Gomez’s longtime pal, Taylor Swift. Reports indicate that Swift, 35, was also spotted at the couple’s rehearsal dinner on Friday, September 26, merely weeks after announcing her own engagement to Travis Kelce.
Of particular interest, was Swift’s choice of attire—a chic striped silk-blend dress from Ralph Lauren that was scooped up by many after the couple’s own announcement on August 26.
Additionally, she accessorized her look with a Cartier Santos Demoiselle watch priced around $18,330, alongside a $930 pair of Isola Sandals from luxury powerhouse, Louis Vuitton.
