Jenna will be married in a sheer organza dress designed by her mother’s favourite, Oscar de la Renta. It will be, we are told, “simple and elegant”. The 14 quasi-bridesmaids, known by Texan lore as attendants at the “house party”, will be kitted out by a local designer Lela Rose who, inspired it might be thought by her own name, has chosen the theme of native Texas wildflowers as her inspiration.
Jenna’s twin, Barbara, will be the only bridesmaid proper, with her own unique dress coloured to match her eyes.
Blooming wildflowers dot the prairie landscape as far as the eye can see, setting a colorful stage for first daughter Jenna Bush’s sunset nuptials on Saturday — the first wedding in more than 15 years of a sitting president’s daughter.
