Presidential love stories, from the Jacksons to the Obamas
George H.W. and Barbara Bush
How They Met: George H.W. Bush recounted how he and Barbara met as teenagers in 1941 in a documentary on his life, "41": "They called it a holiday dance at Christmas time and here she was in this red and green dress," Bush said "I said, 'Who is this good-looking girl, that beautiful girl over there?' 'That's Barbara Pierce from Rye, New York.' So then a guy named Wozencraft introduced us. And the rest is history." The Wedding: Jan. 6, 1945, First Presbyterian Church in Rye, N.Y. Barbara wore the veil worn by George's mother in her own wedding in the ceremony. The Honeymoon: Sea Island, Ga.
