2. Two words come to mind for Barbara Jr.........
they are "foundation garments."

8. Not
"shower curtains"? :hide:

And now I'm going to go to people.com and see what else people are wearing so I can heckle some of their sartorial choices too. :crazy:

11. Pretty dress that doesn't fit her right. Makes her look like she
has a congenital syndrome that causes the sternum to protrude. I suspect she doesn't, but she doesn't look right in that dress, or maybe it's the pose/angle.

JEnna looks fabulous. Her new husband looks a little too much like her dad in features.

26. If she's a bridesmaid, Jenna probably picked the dress
I would have to assume Jenna's twin sister would be the maid of honor. Most likely anyway. But then Babs can't be blamed for the dress.

Of course, Jenna's dress looks like whipped cream, but I'm not wearing my glasses right now... :blush:

38. Jenna's dress looks like it's made from a chenille bedspread.
But other than that, she looks beautiful.

5. Where's the hat?
Honestly, that dress looks like something the Queen, who is old enough to be Pickles MOTHER, would wear to some state function.

I will be a MOB next year and wouldn't be caught dead in something as frumpy as that.

7. The rather prominent cross in the background appears to invoke
a contrary philosophy to the tenets observed and practiced by the last person on the right for at least the last 8 years.

Ah, one says to oneself. If only he WERE the last person on the Right.

I hope the two younguns find happiness.

Laura looks a bit weary, I think. It has to be stressful married to the guy she's married to.

34. They built that cross special, outta TX limestone!
And the gay hating Kirbyjon "Pray Away The Gay" Caldwell officiated!!!

You'd think Jenna would have picked a pic where the groom's suit didn't look all wrinkled.

Everyone here is dissing Laura, I think she looks fine, as does the bride. It's the rest of the party that looks a bit fucked up.

35. And soon her parents will be back in Texas
and she and her husband will be safely in Baltimore.

Barbara doesn't look too happy in any of the pictures, which is probably not too surprising . . . must be hard on a twin, especially.

13. Nah! I don't think Pickles thinks that deeply.
She probably selected the color to compliment her eyes. It's too bad she didn't get a style that would compliment the rest of her.

31. I think Pickles's dress is supposed to evoke thoughts
of the Texas bluebell. That's probably why it has that shawl-thing.

14. Jenna does look lovely. She is a pretty girl.
Henry looks like a younger version of shrub, but maybe not quite as dumb.

Pickles' dress looks homemade. Why can't the President's wife find a better designer?

Shrub always tried to look tall. This picture shows how short he really is.

18. Enough with the chest-thrusting, Barbara. It makes you look like a bimbo.
And, besides appearing drugged out as usual, Pickles looks like she doesn't want her son-in-law to touch her.

All in all, a very odd picture.

29. It IS "a very odd picture."
Jenna does look great, but the rest of them -- no.

I wonder why they released this one, among the very few that were released. Surely, there must have been many that were better.

21. Jenna does look nice.
According to People.com http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20199160,00.html?xid=rss-topheadlines Oscar de la Renta designed the dresses (bride and mother - not sure about bridesmaid). I think the color of Laura's dress is nice, but the design is just yuck. Barb looks nice too, I think, except for the fact that in this photo, she appears as though someone has shoved a rod up her backside.

The colors were chosen, supposedly, to mirror the "very natural" colors of the Texas landscape and the lake where Georgie fishes. The stone altar and cross were Shrub's idea and will apparently remain a permanent fixture at the ranch.

I give Jenna credit for choosing to have a less formal, more low-key event than one would expect for a First-Daughter.

blank eyes. When are we going to round up the Liberals, Daddy? That Jose Padilla scares me, heh, heh.

30. Jenna did make a good choice, not wearing one of those
silly strapless ball gown dresses. She looks very pretty, and happy.

And why wouldn't she be? She'll be able to put a lot of distance between her and her father.

Edited on Sun May-11-08 05:42 PM by distantearlywarning
That dress was a tasteful and attractive choice for her, and is appropriate for the type of ceremony they had. I like her hairstyle too - very natural and not fussy - it makes her look youthful and pretty.

She also looks really happy. So good for her. I wish her well in her new marriage.

52. Laura Bush has this strange habit of aging herself by 15 years
by dressing herself like a recliner. It's just weird.

Jenna looks almost as if she's the most comfortable in her own skin of the bunch. Good luck to her, she'll need it.
