Former “The Bachelor” contestant Michelle Money just got married. She wed her longtime love, golfer Mike Weir, in a gorgeous event in Hawaii.
Fans first met Money when she was a contestant on Brad Womack’s season of “The Bachelor” in 2011 for season 15, shared Us Weekly. Money’s edit on “The Bachelor” painted her as a villain. However, Bachelor Nation fans later came to see her differently.
After she didn’t receive Womack’s final rose, Money tried to find love on “Bachelor Pad” season 2 as well as season 1 of “Bachelor in Paradise.” While it had seemed she might have been successful during both experiences, for a short while, she ultimately remained single.
In August 2016, Money went public with her romance with Weir. The couple got engaged in January 2023 and set their wedding date for November 19.

“It’s a bohemian style dress that has all the sexy touches I wanted,” Money explained. She found it on the sale rack at the bridal store where she shopped. “I put it on and fell in love!”
Money and Weir wrote their own vows for their nuptials. After the ceremony, the small group celebrated by sharing a dinner of truffle burrata caprese, followed by Bolognese, roasted vegetables, and Tuscan roasted fresh fish.
Dessert consisted of two separate cakes. One was a carrot cake, and the other was chocolate. Weir’s daughter Lili and friend Linnea were the cake creators.
Money’s Daughter Brielle Cried Through the Day
Brielle shared a few glimpses of the festivities over the weekend via her Instagram Stories. After Money and Weir were officially married, they drove away in a golf cart. Brielle wrote, “Cried the whole time. Mike – ‘we are going golfing now.'”
