Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are celebrating their first Christmas as a married couple!
On Thursday, Dec. 4, Gomez, 33, posted a carousel of images and videos on her Instagram feed showing the pair — who tied the knot on Sept. 27 of this year — decorating their tree for the holidays.
One timelapse-style video showed Gomez, who was wearing shorts and a cozy-looking, grey knit sweater for the occasion, placing baubles on the tree alongside Blanco, 37, before leaning in for a kiss. A second clip showed the couple cuddling after adding ornaments to the tree.
A different image focused on the pair’s colorful decorations, as Blanco could be seen placing an ornament on the lit-up tree in another shot.
“Our first Christmas as a married couple 💒 🌲,” Gomez captioned the post, which also featured a clip of Gomez dangling a bauble in front of the camera. The Rare Beauty founder then sweetly placed her hand in his hair in one last festive image.

Gomez’s upload came after she and Blanco spent their first Thanksgiving together since they said their “I dos” in an intimate wedding ceremony in September at the Sea Crest Nursery in Santa Barbara, Calif., with around 170 of their closest friends and family in attendance, according to Vogue.
The Only Murders in the Building actress shared a look at their celebrations on her Instagram Stories on Thursday, Nov. 27, which included a peek at her elaborate outdoor dining set-up of long light brown wooden table with matching chairs, floral bouquets, tall red candles and white napkins.
