WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President George W. Bush's daughter Jenna and her fiance, Henry Hager, will marry on May 10, People magazine reported on its Web site on Wednesday, citing two sources it did not identify.
The wedding will be held at the president's 1,600-acre (646-hectare) ranch in Crawford, Texas, one source told the magazine.
A spokeswoman for first lady Laura Bush said she could not confirm the report and had no comment on it.
"It's going to be a small wedding," the source told People, adding Jenna had already selected her bridesmaids. "She's very excited. They make a great couple."

I don’t suppose there will be any black helicopters hovering overhead....at least not ones used to maintain security.
May they have a loving and enduring marriage.
If I were the president’s daughter I would have my wedding in the White House...
Let’s have some pics, we know the rules. ;^)
fyi folks: RPV means “Republican Party of Virginia”
If I was the President’s daughter I would have my wedding anywhere I want.
Having just survived 2 weddings for both my daughters within one month, a “small wedding” is a very relative term. Hollywood productions is more accurate.
OTOH, Chelsea would take full advantage of having a WH wedding and invite the kings and queens of the world so she can receive tons and tons of gifts.
"Lord, please don't let these people back into our house".

If the MSM hated my dad as much as they do President Bush, I would do everything I could to make sure they could not claim a right to crash my wedding, which they might do if it were held at the White House.
May I be so bold as to declare the other one, Barb as way, way cuter.
This is not the time for low key. This is the time to bring sunshine, beauty, hope, love, and celebration back into our otherwise day-to-day horrible news cycle, campaigns, hillary/obama mo-pokes at each other. CLASS, people, we need some CLASS.
maybe she was singing an opera at this moment...
I heard this morning along with a comment that it might not be valid since the President will be out of the country at that time. Did anyone else hear this?
I was rooting for Crawford and thought Jena would choose Crawford. It will still be a beautiful, classy event where photos will fly all over the world and people will be able to see this wonderful family very grounded in American tradition, not power of the White House. She didn’t need to put on a show for the press to barb and hassle her.

Actually, I would try to have a small wedding but have it at the WH. But good for Jenna for doing it the way she wants.
People mag. reported this yesterday.
"The daughters of President George W. Bush, Barbara and Jenna, walk together at Andrews Air Force Base outside Washington before departing for their parent's Texas ranch in Crawford, December 26, 2007."

Laura Bush told People magazine in November she fancied the idea of a White House wedding herself but knew it would not be very private. "And of course we want to do what Jenna wants to do," she said.
I'm sure Jenna agrees with you.
Fantastic. I wish them both well.
