Hunter Biden, the president’s son, has Naomi as his eldest daughter.
The wedding will be the first at the White House for a member of the first family since Tricia Nixon, President Richard Nixon’s daughter, married in 1971.
Weddings at the White House are not unheard of, despite their rarity. According to the White House Historical Association, there have been 18 such weddings in US history, with the first taking place in 1812 and the most recent in 2013 between official White House photographer Pete Souza and his wife, Patti Lease.
