And Our First Item Is… The Marriage Certificate

Fittingly, we’ll start with the marriage certificate. Betty and Allen were married in Las Vegas at the Sands on Friday, June 14, 1963. The judge, David Zenoff, is the same one that married Allen’s BFF, Grant Tinker, to wife Mary Tyler Moore. Betty’s parents served as the witnesses.

Please observe:

• Betty’s father, Horace White, had a signature that was quite similar to that of his daughter.
• See the address written at the top? That’s likely Allen’s mailing address at the time; though the newlyweds and family would move into a different home within two months of the marriage.
