When the songstress Ariana Grande announced on Instagram her engagement in December 2020, fans rejoiced. Wait, what? Grande was dating someone? When did we miss that? Well, if those are your exact thoughts, don’t worry, you’re not alone. This time around, the “34 + 35” singer decided to keep things hush-hush.
Now engaged to the man we were first introduced to on her ‘gram, Dalton Gomez, Grande is no longer shy to show off the man who stole her heart on certain occasions. It’s a relationship that has been kept largely private for some time now, but what we do know is that there’ll be nuptials exchanged soon.
With the love of her life by her side, we can’t help but wonder when the madly in love duo plans on tying the knot. Now that the new Grammy winner is going to be even busier than before as she joins The Voice as a coach, we’re thrilled to see how it’s going to all go down. If she wants it, she got it!
So, who’s the man that she got and when will we see her walk down the aisle?
10 What Does Dalton Gomez Do For A Living?
Before we get into the exciting wedding stuff, let’s discover a little more about Gomez together.
Dalton Gomez, unlike Grande and the men she had flings with in the past, isn’t a part of the entertainment industry. He’s definitely no stranger to the Hollywood limelight though because he works as a real estate agent in the bustling Los Angeles. To be more precise, the working man is a buyer’s agent for the Aaron Kirman Group. Interested in knowing more? Check out the luxurious group’s website for his stats.
9 What’s Their Timeline?
Although the couple remains ultra low-key, they’ve been dating much longer than thought. Some may have caught on quickly and seen him in Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber’s music video for “Stuck with U,” where her beau made a sweet appearance.
By the time Gomez got down on one knee to propose to the woman the entire world – and he – is obsessed with, they had been officially dating for less than a year. And the “madly in love” pair fooled us a few times, too, as Harper’s Bazaar reported that they were both seen in each other’s Instagram stories before the music video dropped.
8 Her Knight In Shining Armour
Even though the 25-year-old (yes, he’s younger than the star) put a ring on it, details of their romance are sparse. However, we do know that the real estate tycoon, according to sources, is everything the “positions” singer has ever looked for in a man.
In August, a source told Us Weekly, “He is the type of guy she has been looking for. He’s very protective of her, will go out of his way for her and does little things that are chivalrous. Dalton will go above and beyond to meet her needs.”
Looks like she won’t be saying “Thank U, Next” to this keeper.
7 The Pandemic Was A Blessing In Disguise
Although we can’t relate, we understand how difficult it can be for a superstar to get to know someone under the Hollywood spotlight. For Grande, the pandemic was a blessing for their relationship as she got to be with him without being in the tabloids.
In an article published by People, a source had said that the lovebirds spent most of their time in New York together in the 27-year-old singer’s apartment. She quickly realized how special he was, finding her match in a man who shares the same values.
The same source said, “He likes keeping his relationship with Ari private. They have been able to get to know each other in peace.”
6 The Sentimental Ring
We don’t blame Gomez for being totally obsessed with his partner!
When Grande broke the news that she was now a feyoncé on December 20th, 2020, on Instagram, she didn’t hesitate to show off her stunning, shiny, and very peculiar ring.
After just 10 months of dating, during a worldwide pandemic, Gomez decided he’d make her a “Mrs.” with a ring that no one else has. The “7 Rings” singer, now has an 8th sentimental and precious one. According to E!, Gomez designed her ring from top to bottom with the help of jeweler, Jack Solow.
5 When’s The Wedding?
Now, on to everything that has come out so far about the wedding day.
Which day should we mark on our calendars with anticipation? Well, we don’t have a precise date yet, but Grande, who’s a summer baby, wants to start Summer 2021 on the right foot with an early “I do” date.
Us revealed in early April that a source spilled the beans and said, “Ariana and Dalton’s wedding will happen early summer.” There’s been no further confirmation on the date, but be prepared to hear the wedding bells chime quite soon.
4 Intimacy Is Key
Despite the fact that we’re wondering if Grande will sport her signature ponytail on her wedding day, we’re also wondering how big it’ll be considering life’s current situation.
Well, the duo that are actively planning their special day will keep it as intimate as their relationship. The two want to get hitched and aren’t going to be too extravagant amid the coronavirus pandemic. According to Us Weekly, the couple, who make rare appearances in public want a “very small and intimate affair. Nothing will officially happen until it’s safe [with the COVID-19 pandemic].”
3 Will It Be In The Golden State?
We’re so ecstatic to see the unique songstress walk down the aisle – yes, we’re happy she found her match!
A source told People that after Grande saw “her man” in Gomez, she decided to get a home for the two in Hollywood. “She purchased a house in the Hollywood Hills in June and never looked back. They are incredibly happy.” That being said, will the place they call home be their venue?
Us’s source came forward to confirm that they will most likely exchange vows in California.
2 Private Plans
Because they’ve kept their romance private thus far, wedding plans will follow the same course. Although Grande is quite active on social media platforms, we are not to expect details about her special day on the ‘gram.
According to E! a source said the star “has been very respectful and tries not to share a lot about their relationship but it comes with the territory when you are dating a celeb.” And that extends to their wedding day.

Since the duo both agreed that they don’t want anything extravagant for their special day, we have reason to believe that the loved-up pair are similar.
With just a few candid moments of the couple that Grande has shared, Grande wants to keep her “forever” away from the spotlight. When E! was given some insight into the couple’s wedding plans, the source also revealed that Grande and Gomez “are very madly in love. Dalton treats Ariana like a queen and they have a lot of fun together.”
Whatever makes them happy, makes us happy!
