Naomi Biden got married to Peter Neal at the White House. The 19th wedding at the historic home will be theirs.

Naomi Biden thanked her parents for the chance to celebrate her wedding at the White House.

The presidential mansion has been a symbol of the US president's authority for over 200 years. It has been called the best public housing and agilded cage.

After receiving a high-profile invitation to an official event or clearance from a local representative for a tour, visitors to the mansion might be surprised at its modest scale compared to the massive monuments and museums that sit a few blocks away.

The architecture and decorations of the White House date back decades.
