Crawford Ranch wedding is Saturday....

Henry Hager, 26, son of RPV Chairman John Hager, will marry Jenna Bush, 26, Saturday

Jenna is marrying a Virginia boy ... and he asked for her hand in marriage the way of a Virginia gentleman. After first confiding in her twin that he wished to propose, Henry Hager asked President and Mrs. Bush for their daughter's hand in marriage. There's something to be said for the gentility of Virginia men.

He popped the question on top of Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park in Maine as the sun rose after the two had hiked for an hour-and-a-half to reach the summit.

The wedding is a private event at the 1,600-acre Crawford Ranch in Texas with family and friends gathering, including John and Maggie Hager. John Hager is the former Lt. Governor of Virginia as well as current chairman of the Republican Party of Virginia.

According to the Associated Press:
On Monday, the president disclosed that Jenna will say ''I do'' near a lake at the ranch -- in front of a giant cross made of Texas limestone that will serve as an altar. The cross will be a landmark at the ranch for years to come. The president said that was his contribution to the wedding that the Bushes are trying to keep a low-key affair.
We wish our best to Jenna and Henry ... a toast to the bride and groom!
