As Valentine’s Day came and went, many celebrities flooded social media with glimpses of the sweet surprises and grand gestures planned by their partners — and it’s safe to say Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco absolutely nailed the romantic holiday.

On Valentine’s Day, the record producer shared a glimpse into his celebration with the singer through a series of Instagram Stories. The holiday marked their first Valentine’s Day as a married couple after tying the knot in September 2025.

Selena Gomez And Benny Blanco Enjoy Backyard Valentine's Day Date

Rather than opting for an over-the-top evening out, the pair kept things intimate and personal.

The couple enjoyed a romantic hot dog dinner set up in their backyard — proving that meaningful moments don’t have to be extravagant. Photos revealed their own mini hot dog stand, a table set with pink plates, upside-down flowers hanging from the trees, and a cozy table for two with pink chairs. Soft yellow lights were wrapped around a backyard tree, creating a warm glow.

One snapshot showed a mouthwatering overhead view of crispy French fries and a hot dog topped with grated cheese and drizzled in yellow cheese sauce. Tall candles placed along the glass table added a dreamy, almost outdoor-wedding ambiance.

Keeping with the laid-back vibe, the Rare Beauty founder dressed casually in a beige turtleneck, a white skirt, and black slippers. She wore her hair in a wide-parted bun and accessorized with delicate gold mini hoop earrings, perfectly complementing the relaxed yet romantic setting.

Social Media Reacts

Social media users were quick to praise the understated celebration, sharing their sweet reactions online.

“It the little things, glad they get this,” one person commented. Another wrote, “Aw these two are the cutest.”

“Marriage looks perfect on her,” someone else added, while another quipped, “It’s so amazing when your partner knows you so well.”

“My favorite food,” one fan chimed in. “You can say whatever you like about this man, but he is the sweetest most thoughtful husband and he adores his wife,” another wrote. “So romantic love the tree,” one user commented, while someone else joked, “Backyard glizzys is top tier.”

The actress and Blanco went from longtime collaborators—working together since 2015—to a romantic couple around mid-2023. They made their relationship public in December 2023, got engaged on December 11, 2024, and tied the knot on September 27, 2025. Blanco has produced several of Gomez’s hit tracks, including “Same Old Love” and “I Can’t Get Enough.”
