Jenna Bush gets married
I love, love Jenna Bush’s wedding gown. So simple, so classy, so elegant. It was designed and made by Oscar dela Renta (and why not, I suppose they can afford it!). I didn’t realise that Henry Hager was a former White House aide? Isn’t that so romantic? Like Cinderella and Prince Charming or something but their roles are reversed with Jenna being Princess Charming and Henry being, umm, Cinders? :-)
It was arguably America’s wedding of the year, uniting a presidential daughter with a former White House aide - but its details were kept almost entirely private.
Jenna Bush married Henry Hager in a down-home Texas wedding yesterday at the family ranch in Crawford, Texas, before some 200 friends and relatives and in front of a simple limestone cross erected near a lake.
“Our little girl Jenna married a really good guy, Henry Hager. The wedding was spectacular, all we could have hoped for,” President Bush told reporters afterwards.
In contrast with other First Family weddings, details of Jenna’s nuptials had been kept secret, although the White House released about a dozen photographs afterwards.
Jenna’s 26-year-old twin sister, Barbara, was her maid of honor and Mr Hager’s brother, Jack, was best man. The bride and groom were attended-to by 14 young female attendants and 14 male ushers.
The bride wore a hip-hugging Oscar de la Renta white gown, and enjoyed a dance with her father to the Joe Cocker ballad You Are So Beautiful.

This give bad name to Oscar de la Renta Gown because her father is War Criminal. So those who watched movie “Devil Wore Prada” so you can make new movie called “Devil Wore Oscar de la Renta” or “War Criminal Wore Oscar de la Renta”. This is good chance make new movie based on Devil Wore Prada!

For jenna to be daugther of the President of the us. I would expect more. The dress looked plain little white dress you would wear to formal event not to your wedding. My dress for my wedding looked back than her dress.

I think Jenna’s dress is absolutely stunning. Very simple and NOT at all over the top, like most well known/famous people. It was very beautiful.
