Today I am posting extremely rare pictures of Jack Wrather's first marriage ceremony. In fact, I would bet that these pictures have not been seen in almost 70 years! This post is for Molly Dolle the daughter of Jack and Mollie O'Daniel Wrather and I hope it brings a smile to her face.
Taking their vows
The Bride and Groom. What a beautiful couple!
Cutting the cake.
With guests at the reception
Sharing the wedding cake
The Groomsmen....the only person I can identify is Jack's mother Mazie in the center of the photograph
First born child, Miss Molly Wrather with who I am guessing is Molly's mother
Hope you enjoyed these very rare photographs of the man who gave you the Disneyland Hotel.

Thanks for posting these rare photos, Don!
For fans of the Disneyland Hotel in its pre-Downtown Disney years, the "Mazie's Pantry" deli-style restaurant (located in the Plaza Shops building) was named for Jack's mom.
What happened to Jack Devereaux Wrather III? We were friends back in the 60's. Thank you.
Jack D Wrather III commited suicide some time in the 70's. I do not know the details.
Rest in peace Molly. You will be remembered.
Thank you for doing such a wonderful service in keeping the history of that era alive.
I would like to make one comment to set the historical record straight. Molly's mother (and mine) was Molly O'Daniel not Mollie O'Daniel. My mother would not be happy with the "ie" instead of "y" at the end of her name. Thank you.
I made the changes to the post. Thank you for pointing this out.
