Selena Gomez Shares Newlywed Photos After Explaining the Decoy That Kept Her Wedding Private

She is steering the narrative by sharing selective images after describing a decoy first look to block unauthorized photos.

Overview

  • Gomez posted a new Instagram carousel on Oct. 22 showing casual newlywed moments with Benny Blanco, including a framed black‑and‑white shot from their Sept. 27 wedding.
  • On The Jennifer Hudson Show, she said she used a decoy first look so only her own images would surface and called her sheer silk‑lace Ralph Lauren ceremony gown her favorite.
  • The couple held a tented ceremony in California and released official photos on a delayed schedule, with Gomez’s first wedding carousel arriving on Sept. 30.
  • A host of stars attended the nuptials, including Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, Martin Short, Steve Martin, Paul Rudd, Paris Hilton, Zoë Saldaña and SZA.
  • Coverage differs on how many looks she wore, with some outlets reporting three custom Ralph Lauren dresses and others noting four distinct outfits, while a People source says the newlyweds took a mini‑moon road trip up the California coast and to Texas.
