My, how his presidency has aged Mr. Bush.

Beautiful dress.

Seems like Bush knows as many black people as I do ;-).

[angcat]

So many brides pick dresses that would look great on someone else.

Lots of fat brides wear strapless gowns.

I’m a little dissapointed in Laura’s dress.

Is their preacher a black man?? I didn’t realize that.

That is Rev. Kirbyjon Caldwell pastor of Windsor United Methodist Church of Houston. They met when President Bush was Governor of Texas and developed a long lasting friendship. Rev. Caldwell gave the benidiction at both of the Presidents inaugrations and has done other things for the President.

The minister is a well known Methodist minister from Houston who has also been a long time supporter of GWB.

Great pictures...beautiful wedding, Bride and Groom, just a grand setting here in Texas. What a wonderful day for Jenna and Henry, President Bush and First Lady Laura Bush, Barbara, Henry’s Family from the great state of Virginia...and all the others in both families. God Bless Them All.

"The only information that I've received is that there are a number of Jenna's close friends who are not being invited to this wedding because, according to them, she would be afraid of their behavior," Doug Wead said.
Wead said another consideration for the wedding's location is "they know that they don't own the White House, that they can't go back.

How snarky! I'm glad Jenna and Henry got the wedding that THEY wanted without it being disturbed by the press gaggle!

They were not bridesmaids, as everyone thinks of them, walking down the aisle in procession ahead of the bride. Those 14 young ladies are the “House Party”, and they serve the purpose of being available to do errands for the bride while planning for the wedding, and on the days just before. They also keep an eye on things during the parties and ceremony, helping to make sure things go smoothly. It’s a great way for a young lady to have her friends be an important part of her wedding without having to have them all crowd around the altar during the ceremony.

There was a picture posted the other day of Laura, Jenna, and Doro, the President’s sister, sitting at some event. I was struck by just how much Jenna looks like Doro, so she definitely favors the Bush side of the family, but she also has a lot of her mother’s looks about her, as well.

Can you post this larger to really see how werd Amy Carter and her Hub look in comparison??

Jen:

I'm very sorry I couldn't marry you. Each of the thousands of voicemails and emails you sent me were very touching, but I just am not available.

I hope you understand, and I'm sure this young man is just super.

Best, tih

That dress is not only beautiful, it’s perfect for her body. Great choice! So many brides pick dresses that would look great on someone else. Kudos for her good taste!

I agree 100%. The back is sexy and the flowers in her hair are nicer than a veil any day.

Thanks for the thread & pix. It looks like a beautiful wedding,and reception. I love Jenna’s dress-very elegant and it suits her perfectly.

The last pic in #115 It looks like GWB is reaching down to pick up the hat of the Marine guard that has blown off near the stairs.

Pictures like this tell me a lot about our President. It is such a normal thing to do, but too many of the elites would wait for an “underling” to do it.

Everything about this ceremony is spectacular. The altar, the lake, the wildflowers and at sunset! Very beautiful. I’m glad that Pastor Caldwell officiated. He is very loved in Houston.

All blessings to Henry and Jenna!
