Bachelor’s Jason Mesnick to Have ABC Wedding
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Specials, ABC, Gossip,
He may not be marrying the girl he originally proposed to, but that won’t keep ABC from celebrating his nuptials.
Later this spring, the network will be the venue for Jason Mesnick and Molly Malaney’s wedding. The event comes approximately five months after the two became officially engaged, and over a year after the former Bachelor publicly - and famously - broke it off with his previous fiancee, Melissa Rycroft.
ABC says this will be the “first Bachelor couple to ever walk down the aisle,” Trista Rehn - a Bachelorette - had her wedding to Ryan Sutter broadcast in 2002. (Mesnick and Malaney also didn’t end their season as a couple.)
During the two-hour event, romantics will get glimpses of the pre-wedding preps including the bridal fitting and the bachelor/bachelorette parties.
The bells will ring for The Bachelor: Jason and Molly’s Wedding on March 8.
