Can you supply the Dealer and User model validations so we can see what they are doing?
When you say "If the params for the adresses are blank (not valid) or just not valid the objects should not be created and neither should the user or dealer" then this wouldn't even work: @dealer = Dealer.new(params[:dealer]) @dealer.save! Since you are asking a dealer record to save but an address hasn't been added to it yet. That should bomb out regardless of params[:mailing_address] being blank or not with what you said and what you have written here.
