White House weddings
When Jenna Bush and Harry Hager are married — the wedding is set for May 10 at her father's ranch in Texas — she will become the 20th child of a U.S. president to be married while the father was in office.
Another one came awfully close: Julie Nixon married David Eisenhower, grandson of Dwight David Eisenhower, on Dec. 22, 1968, after her father was elected but before he was inaugurated.
Of those weddings, nine of them took place in the White House.
The first presidential child to be married was Maria Hester Monroe, who married Samuel Gouverneur on March 9, 1820, in the White House. At the time, it caused quite a stir because it was a private affair, and a lot of Washington's society was offended at not being invited.
Nellie Grant made up for that a number of years later. When she married Englishman Algernon Sartoris on May 21, 1874, it was touted as "the greatest wedding in the history of the White House." Some 75 carriages brought guests to the White House, and poet Walt Whitman composed a piece to commemorate the occasion.
The wedding of Alice Roosevelt and Nicholas Longworth, who would later become speaker of the House, was also a high-society affair, with more than 1,000 guests. The House even adjourned for the day, in honor of the nuptials of one of its own.
When Luci Baines Johnson married Patrick Nugent on Aug. 6, 1966, the wedding was held in the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, but the reception was held in the White House. Luci had 10 bridesmaids, 12 ushers and a wedding cake that was 13 tiers high and weighed a whopping 300 pounds.
Her sister, Lynda, did have a White House ceremony when she married Charles Robb on Dec. 9, 1967.
Tricia Nixon became the first presidential child to have an outdoors wedding at the White House. She married Edward Cox on June 12, 1971, in the Rose Garden. Invitations went out to 400 guests; Pat Nixon complained because "my husband, just like any other man, keeps adding guests."
On June 26, 1992, Dorothy Walker Bush became the first to have a wedding at the presidential retreat Camp David.
Children aren't the only ones, however, who have had White House weddings. President Grover Cleveland married Frances Folsom in 1886 in the Blue Room of the White House.
Years earlier John Tyler became the first president to marry while in office. He was a widower when he was elected, and he married the daughter of his late secretary of state. But they chose to be married in a private ceremony in New York City rather than in Washington, D.C.
