In a romantic, private wedding at a resort in Santa Barbara, Selena Gomez wed music producer Benny Blanco. Although the star-studded occasion received a lot of attention, Selena’s choice to ask her grandfather, David Cornett, to lead her down the aisle rather than her mother, Mandy Teefey, is said to have startled her family. According to reports, this decision “shattered” her mother and stepfather, Brian Teefey.
According to an informant, David and his spouse, Debbie, were in tears when the actress from Only Murders in the Building asked him, and they gladly accepted. Remarkably, Selena made the decision early in the wedding planning process; it wasn’t a last-minute or abrupt decision, the source claimed.

“Selena’s mother and her stepfather Brian were devastated because she didn’t choose her mother to walk her down the aisle,” a source told Daily Mail. She made the shocking decision to give her to Benny through her grandfather, David. When she asked, David and his wife Debbie burst into tears of happiness. As soon as they began organizing the wedding, Selena made the choice.
Interestingly, Mandy Teefey’s Instagram pictures seem to contradict the sources’ claims that she was offended by Selena Gomez’s decision to have her grandfather lead her down the aisle. As she saw her father give Selena away, the singer’s mother seemed content.
“What a perfect celebration for the most awesome couple I know,” she wrote. There was nothing more lovely or ideal about the evening. Perfectly perfect. Love and best wishes to my lovely daughter Selena Gomez and my amazing son-in-law Benny Blanco. Watching my father lead her down the aisle was really touching and seemed like a dream come true.
