Jenna Bush Married in Texas

First daughter Jenna Bush and Henry Hager, the son of a well-connected Virginia Republican, got married last night in a romantic outdoor sunset ceremony at President Bush’s Prairie Chapel Ranch.

U.S. President George W. Bush and the bride picked “You Are So Beautiful” for their father-daughter dance, band leader Tyrone Smith of Nashville, Tenn. told the Associated Press. As he witnessed the wedding ceremony, Smith declared for the AP afterward that the bride wore a “very simple and elegant” white dress, without a veil, and the groom was dressed in a dark blue suit with powder-blue tie.

Smith also said Jenna Bush’s paternal grandparents, President George H. W. Bush and Barbara Bush, spoke during the wedding, though he could not hear their comments.

Jenna Bush, 26, and Henry Hager, 30, exchanged vows before nearly 200 guests on the 1,600-acre ranch. Jenna’s twin sister, Barbara, was maid of honor and 14 other women were in her “house party.” The best man was the groom’s brother.

“I had to face some very difficult spending decisions, and I've had to conduct sensitive diplomacy. That's called planning for a wedding,” Bush told the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce on March 12, quoted by CNN.

“This is the time when the wildflowers are all blooming. And I think it will be a very, very lovely wedding, and it will be very like Jenna and Henry,” first lady Laura Bush recently said, according to the same source.

The happy couple will honeymoon in Europe and reside in the city of Baltimore, about 40 miles north of Washington, DC.
