Garden Romance Meets Rock ‘n’ Roll:

Styling Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s Dream Wedding

California transplant here, now styling weddings and events in Boston and New England-sometimes whimsical, sometimes edgy. As a Boston wedding florist, I’d style Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s wedding with a seamless blend of garden romance and rock ‘n’ roll edge. The ceremony would feature a lush aisle meadow, with soft, cascading blooms and grasses creating an organic, whimsical feel. A flowing floral arch, adorned with pastel roses, wildflowers, and airy greenery, would frame the couple as they say “I do.” This romantic yet effortless vibe sets the stage for a wedding that reflects Selena’s elegance and Benny’s creative spirit.

The Food: Off the Hook

For the reception, the spotlight would undoubtedly be on food—especially with Benny’s culinary expertise and the influence of his cookbook, Open Wide: A Cookbook For Friends. His five-star chef friends would ensure the menu is unforgettable, and I’d design a show-stopping tablescape to highlight the artistry of the dishes. Picture a multi-level display featuring mosses, grasses, and loose blooms to frame the vibrant plates, with the tablescape becoming an edible work of art. A floral runner spilling across the tables would weave the garden-inspired theme throughout the room, while creating a luxe yet approachable dining experience. Tapas and small bites: I’m thinking a Single Thread Farms vibe. https://singlethreadfarms.com

The Reception: Two Creative Powerhouses

To showcase their musical collaboration, I’d deck out the dance floor ceiling with cascading greens and multi-level disco balls, tying together the playful, rock ‘n’ roll energy. These shimmering installations would catch the light and create a magical, dynamic atmosphere as the evening transitions from elegant dining to full-on celebration.

With a garden-meets-rock-n-roll vibe, stunning fashion, and a menu that blends culinary artistry, Selena and Benny’s big day will be the kind of event dreams are made of.
