The White House has released official photos of Jenna Bush’s wedding ceremony and reception. She looks beautiful and her special day seems like a perfect mix of elegant touches with a down home celebration. Jenna, 26, and her new husband, Henry Hager, 30, are thought to be heading off to a European honeymoon. The new couple will return home to a two bedroom townhouse in Baltimore, Maryland. Jenna has a job as a schoolteacher in Washington, DC, and Henry will work for an energy company in Maryland. Best wishes to the new couple.
We posted full details of their wedding ceremony and reception earlier today.
All photos thanks to WhiteHouse.gov. Jenna and Henry are shown with their parents including Mr. and Mrs. John Hager, and with the reverend who officiated their ceremony, Kirbyjon Caldwell of Houston’s Windsor Village United Methodist Church.

It must be hard being a child of a ridiculous man. I find it hard explaining to people that he is my president.

I appreciate Jenna’s choice to have a low key event. No matter what she does or how they handle the day, there will be critics.I was anxious to see the pictures and glad they look like mine rather than posed for People magazine! I am glad she has done everything her way-if she could do it all over, she probably would still stick her tongue out!

I loved the pictures! All the people looked “Real” and not like they were posing. Congratulations to the happy couple!

Why do weddings always do this to me? I’m happy for her. And I’m happy for Bush. Yeah, he’s a backwards bigot who’s fedex-ed the country to hell, but he’s a daddy too! Imagine how happy he was when she got married!
Now I don’t want to be rude, but doesn’t her husband look exactly like that stuffed-shirt intern who spilled coffee on his freshly-pressed (by his mom) white shirt this morning at Starbucks?

Jenna looks beautiful and the dress is gorgeous. The only flaw might be Henry’s suit which seems ill-fitting. The suit jacket appears too tight and the pants are too baggy. It’s probably one he already had in his closet.

I like the setting for the wedding…very natural and serene. I like that fact that she didn’t have some big blow-out wedding with lots of hoopla. It seems very family-oriented and laid back.

Ditto on the wedding photos looking like crap. I took one semester of photography in college and know to at least fill the frame.
I would suspect these released ones are orchestrated to look so second rate as to confirm how “normal” and “like the rest of us” and “outside of washington” the first family is.

I’m really amazed at the people who use Jenna Bush’s wedding as an opportunity to take pot shots at her father. Classy.
Should we expect the same at Chelsea Clinton’s wedding?
The Obama girls will get married someday, too – maybe y’all can get in a “Yes We Can” joke about the wedding night.

Yeah I may not like George Bush as our president but I don’t wish harm to him or his family. He’s just someone who shouldn’t be ruling our country… his daughters have nothing to do with his negligent and ignorant policies.
I think her pictures are beautiful (although unprofessional looking etc) and I think it shows a lot of class that she chose a ceremony that fits her personality rather than the glitz and glamor of the white house etc. She looks gorgeous and it looks like a beautiful ceremony.

Tell ‘ya what, candykay. If Obama wins the 2008 ‘election’ (likely to be stolen via electronic ‘voting’ machines in a third GOP coup d’etat), then proceeds to kill a million-plus Iraqis in an illegal war waged under false pretenses (to enhance corpora-terrorist cronies) and carries out dozens of other war crimes and false flag attacks (Guantanamo Bay, 9/11, etc.) –people can spew ‘Yes we can!’ jokes on the night of an Obama child’s wedding.

To the person who asked whether others were surprised at the black minister; no. No I wasn’t. In fact, the first thing I thought before even seeing the photos was ‘An all-white political famiiy who’s most famous member is suspected of being racist? They will manage to have a black person in there SOMEHOW.’
There is no way it was by accident.
…Maybe I’m getting cynical.

This girl is beautiful and congratulations to her on her special day. I’m a proud liberal, and I don’t think this is the time or place to criticize Jenna’s father or bring up any hatred by either side. She did it the right way by keeping her wedding under wraps and just releasing photos.

Nice to see two wonderful families enjoying such a special day, and the fact that our twice-elected leader enjoying his daughter’s wedding pisses off the Lori Price types makes me enjoy the photos even more.

“Look at all the bitter, misinformed, brainwashed by the liberal-media idiots who have posted here.”
newsflash: the media isn’t liberal. the media are predominantly owned by national or multi-national conglomerates with conservative agendas, ergo: fox, for example, and cnn. parroting that timeworn phrase, “liberal media,” in order to disparage those who don’t agree with your opinions simply makes YOU look like an idiot.
that said, this liberal thinks jenna looks lovely in these photos, and i wish her much happiness. here’s hoping the sins of the father aren’t revisited upon her.

P.S. About the bow-tie comment….why would he wear such a tie with a business suit which was obviously the style of choice? Much as I detest him, his outfit was entirely appropriate for the type of wedding/reception it was.

Larry, I’m sorry I offended your husband so much by insinuating he wears a bowtie to his own daughter’s wedding. I now realize he reserves his bowties and chaps only for his special nights with you! My sincerest apologies.

I mean he is the POTUS and he wears the same suit he wears every day of his life and can’t wear a tux for his daughter’s wedding? How un-special she must feel. Simple black and white tux and bowtie would have been sufficient.

Maybe these were taken by the photographer’s assistant on a digital camera for quick public release, while the photographer takes his or her time with the main photos? Just that they all seem to be facing a slightly different direction in most of the photos.

He isn’t wearing a bowtie, because the groom isn’t wearing a bowtie. It is very common these days to wear more of a formal or tailored suit, especially when a wedding is outdoors or less formal.
I had my groom and my father/father-in-law wear tailored suits for our outdoor wedding.
Jenna probably chose, or at least set guidelines for, what every person in the wedding party wore, which is how most traditional weddings work.

I think the whole evening looks like it was a lovely, classy affair. Good for her for pulling it off her way. Everyone looks beautiful, and happy, and I’m glad for them. And it doesn’t say anywhere that these are the professional pictures, does it? It’s pretty early for professional pictures to be released – I bet these are just pictures that were taken while the photographer had everyone posed. No one’s even lookig at the lens in these, they’re obviously not the same one’s they’ll have framed.
And my wedding was much more formal than this one, and no one wore bowties then, either. It’s considered a more modern, relaxed look – hardly anyone does bowties anymore.

Whew! Thanks, CB! My paranoia at work again!
I keep wondering, though, when it became so bad to be a liberal. I came of political age in an era when it was a good thing to be left, and moved in that direction because I believe in human rights. In all these years I have not felt the need to change my views. I’m not a left wing radical, just left of center, and I don’t hate anyone (except maybe Bush). I’m not even going to sneer at the right wingers who feel like it’s their right, even their duty, to put liberals down. But I do ask that my views be respected as much as those of the tightest-assed Republicans out there.
All that aside, I still don’t like all the pictures looking back over her shoulder like Kardashian, I agree the groom is not handsome, I always liked Barbara better than Jenna, the regular tie is fine with the business suit, and the dress cost more than it’s worth because although quite pretty, it’s not breathtaking, and every bride deserves to be breathtaking on that one day in her life.

Kolby, I didn’t even think about that but you are absolutely right.
As for the so called “kardashian” pics, I don’t know about any of you, but I picked my dress because I loved the detailing on the back so you bet your behind I have a picture of it from that angle. Jenna’s dress is gorgeous all around but most stunning from the rear. That’s why they took the picture that way.

Jenna looked lovely, her dress was gorgeous, the setting for the ceremony was serene and beautiful and the reception looked like a blast. This is exactly the type of wedding I would have wanted if I were in her shoes. It was perfect!
A White House wedding would have brought out the crazies, protestors, diplomats, heads of state and an army of press. Hardly the elegantly beautiful and personal occasion the bride and groom and their families will remember forever.
Although I was only a little girl when Tricia Nixon got married I remember her looking like a “deer in the headlights” walking down the aisle with her father.

Amazing how a wedding cancels out political nonsense for a day. Jenna looks lovely in her dress. I must say she looks thin as ever also. A little crash pre-wedding dieting maybe? Her hair looks so cute until the Texas humidity takes over but I don’t think you can avoid that in Texas, right? Congratulations to Jenna and her proud parents!

Some of you people are just ridiculous. You hate Bush so much that you bend over backwards to say something nasty if he is involved.
I know it’s a HUGE leap of logic but one can assume that the wedding was put on to suit the taste of the two people getting married – NOT the nation at large – so it’s a damn good thing none of you were invited, so you didn’t have to sit through a ceremony with hateful comments running through your head.
I would absolutely LOVE to see pictures from any of your weddings – I’m sure they were all the pinnacle of style and nobody had a single critical thing to say.
Get over yourselves! If you hate Bush so much – ignore him the same way that the world at large ignores the radical left!

Sounds like a lot of jealous unhappy people out there that are not happy with themselves so they think it makes them feel better putting down someone else.
Her wedding was beautiful and the photographs for the many uninformed people posting to this site were done in a photojournalistic manner. Which means that they tell the story of the wedding. This is a very creative way of photographing the wedding as it happened not someones preconceived list of shots they think is traditional and untimately boring.
