Luci Nugent wed Patrick in the first ceremony at the National Shrine with Archbishop O Boyle presiding. President Johnson lauded the match as he hosted a White House reception amid a security vigil and a largely peaceful crowd.
The wedding gown of Luci Baines Johnson was white with her name and date embroidered in blue on the hem. It features a long sleeves lace design with pearls, a three yard train, starched veil, tissue-paper preservation, and a sixpence for luck in one shoe.
Lynda Johnson, maid of honor at her sister’s wedding, fainted briefly during the Nuptial Mass at the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. A Secret Service agent and two priests aided her as she recovered, then walked out with groom’s father Gerard Nugent and attended the reception at the White House.
Protesters gathered in several cities on the Hiroshima anniversary with a small demonstration near the National Shrine for Luci Baines Johnson’s wedding. A spokesperson criticized the timing, noting the president’s daughter’s marriage on the day. Police kept demonstrators apart from Vietnam policy supporters in New York.
