“Selena and Benny don’t want a long engagement,” a source shared. “They want to prove their love is real and aren’t wasting time.”
The 32-year-old singer and Only Murders in the Building star is keeping things intimate for the wedding and has hired a wedding planner to bring her vision to life.
She has started looking for a dress, created a Pinterest board for wedding inspiration. Her mom is helping, but a professional planner will handle details. They are considering a destination wedding, possibly in Puerto Rico.

The couple is aiming for a summer or early fall wedding, likely after Selena wraps filming for season 5 of Only Murders in the Building.
