Jenna and Henry ... and First Father-in-Law John Hager

"Our little girl Jenna married a really good guy."
--President George W. Bush

As Jenna, 26, and Henry Hager, 30, honeymoon in Europe, the world is able to catch a glimpse into their wedding at the ranch in Crawford, Texas, and to catch up with Virginia's own First Father-in-law, John Hager. In photos that have been released we see Chairman Hager with the wedding party and watching the ceremony. He reportedly hit the dance floor early and was out there all night ... and was seen dancing with First Lady Laura Bush throughout the evening.

While many in the country would love to have had a White House wedding, that was not in Jenna's plans. You have to admire her for wanting the simplicity of a wedding more to the liking of herself and her groom. In keeping with that, there was a sunset ceremony by the lake at the ranch followed by dinner and dancing.
