Jenna, Mom, Pop and maid of honour/sister Barbara doing her best to upstage the bride. Barbara's dress shade was chosen to match the colour of her eyes (an icy silver?) while the First Lady also wore Oscar de la Renta.

According to the Houston Chronicle, the president took to the stage later in the evening, 'whooping it up with Super T and his 10-piece show band'. Alas, no footage yet on youtube of the embarassing Dad, but one imagines it would have been something like this Photograph: Shealah Craighead/The White House/AP
