They're Still in the 'Honeymoon Stage'

The anniversary comes after Gomez recently opened up about married life and how things have been between her and Blanco.
In a recent interview, Gomez, 34, said that she and Blanco are “still in the honeymoon stage” after their first year of marriage.
“I love it. It just feels so wonderful to have a partner that actually genuinely listens and just meets you right where you are, whatever that mood or day looks like, and that’s all I could ask for,” she told People. “I just need him, and I love him, so it’s pretty great.”

She's 'My Best Friend'
Selena Gomez said the couple is still in the ‘honeymoon stage’ after one year of marriage.
Blanco has also shared his thoughts on reaching the one-year mark with Gomez.
"It happened so quickly," he observed during his co-hosting gig at TODAY With Jenna and Sheinelle. "We are so lucky and fortunate that we're just each other's yin and yang and everything is so easy."
The producer added, "It's my best friend that I get to spend the rest of my life with. And I'm pinching myself every day. I'm like, 'Are you sure you picked the right guy?'"
The Couple Had Low-Key Anniversary Plans
Selena Blanco described Selena Gomez as ‘his best friend’ and said he feels lucky to spend his life with her.
The newlyweds also found a sweet way to revisit their wedding day. They froze their wedding cake so they could enjoy a slice one year later while looking back on the celebration.
Along with the cake, Blanco said he mainly wanted some quiet time at their Beverly Hills, Calif., home with his wife.
"We want to just be chill," he said of their anniversary plans. "We've been traveling so much. I haven't been in my own bed in four months. So we want to chill. Maybe we'll watch our speeches or something."
