I know that no one liked him but I say, good for them!'The Bachelor' couple Molly Malaney and Jason Mesnick get marriedAfter eight years and fourteen seasons, a
The Bachelor couple has finally walked down the aisle.
Thirteenth-season
The Bachelor couple
Jason Mesnick and
Molly Malaney were married on a grassy bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean at the Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes, CA on Saturday,
People reported.
Mesnick and Malaney's ceremony
will air as part of ABC's previously announced two-hour
The Bachelor: Jason and Molly's Wedding special on Monday, March 8 at 8PM ET/PT.
About 300 guests reportedly attended the rain-interrupted afternoon ceremony. Original
The Bachelorette couple Trista and Ryan Sutter -- only
The Bachelor or
The Bachelorette couple to have previously married -- and
The Bachelorette fifth-season couple
Jillian Harris and
Ed Swiderski couple, who
are considering their own televised wedding, both attended the ceremony.
In addition, fourth-season
The Bachelorette star
DeAnna Pappas (who rejected Mesnick when he appeared on her season), Jesse Csinsak (the
now-former fiance Pappas
selected over Mesnick at the end of her season) and fifth-season
The Bachelorette bachelorette
Kiptyn Locke (who Harris
rejected in favor of Swiderski at her final Rose Ceremony) were also among the guests, according to
People.
Melissa Rycroft -- whom Mesnick chose at his final
The Bachelor Rose Ceremony before
dumping her on-air in favor of Malaney during the subsequent After the Final Rose special.-- did not attend the ceremony despite a previous report that
ABC had been pressuring Mesnick and Malaney to include her on the guest list.
Rycroft
reunited with former boyfriend Ty Strickland after she was dumped by Mesnick. The couple
got engaged in June and wed in December.
The 25-year-old Malaney wore $45,000, strapless Monique Lhuillier gown and Neil Lane jewelry and walked down the 200-foot aisle as former
American Idol finalist
Jason Castro sang "Somewhere Over the Rainbow,"
People reported. The 33-year-old previously divorced Mesnick wore a dark suit and a black tie for the 15-minute ceremony, which ended with white doves being released into raining skies.
The couple -- who
had gotten engaged in October -- exchanged their vows under a driftwood-covered arbor that was decorated with white orchids, pieces of driftwood, and antique butterfly cages, according to
People.
Pouring rain interrupted the exchange, according to
Us Weekly.
The reception followed indoors in a resort ballroom and was proceeded by Castro singing "That's What I'm Here For" as Mesnick and Malaney left the ceremony,
Us Weekly reported.
The couple plans to continue living in Seattle, where they have lived together since Malaney moved there in September, following a tropical honeymoon, according to
People.
