The Wedding Is at the White House, but the Details Are Top Secret.

Naomi Biden, the president’s eldest grandchild, was married on the South Lawn on Saturday morning. The ceremony was to be followed by a luncheon and a black-tie evening reception.

*The White House kept details of the event minimal, but a person familiar with the planning said that a luncheon for the family and wedding party would be held in the White House immediately after the South Lawn ceremony. A black-tie evening reception with dessert and dancing was to follow.

Of the seven Biden grandchildren, Ms. Biden, 28, is a particularly influential presence in Mr. Biden’s life. It was she who called a family meeting to urge her grandfather to run for the presidency in 2019. And she will be involved in the family discussions when Mr. Biden, who turns 80 a day after the wedding, mulls a second run.

A Washington attorney with an interest in politics, Ms. Biden has been a frequent presence at White House events, twirling in a feather-fringed dress on the South Lawn when Elton John played there in September, and sitting in the audience at a Cinco de Mayo celebration in May. She is the daughter of Hunter Biden, the president’s son, and Kathleen Buhle, who divorced in 2017.

Ms. Biden, as the president often says, was named for his firstborn daughter, who died in a car crash along with Mr. Biden’s first wife, Neilia, in 1972.'>>>
