I’ve thought Margaret Truman was perhaps the homeliest president’s daughter until I scrolled down to Amy Carter. I’m going to have to wait for lunch, now.

Interesting that Jenna Bush’s wedding was so low-key, and unpretentious, and her father was the SITTING President, not a former one.

I tried to find a picture of my ancestors' WH wedding - John and Julia Tyler, but since cameras weren't real big back then, there weren't any. :)
