🇺🇸🇫🇷 FLOTUS said she was handling the state dinner the way that her mom handled family dinners when she was growing up. Her mom brought out the china, fresh flowers and lit candles “even if we were only having fish sticks from the freezer.”
Biden said the first White House state dinner since 2019 will be"an expression of welcome and friendship, a way to connect through a language that transcends words.” She did not take questions from reporters and left the preview room after her brief remarks.
China from the White House collection will not be used since it is not allowed outside of the executive mansion. Guests will dine on outside tableware. Dinner guests, who typically are supporters and friends of both presidents, government officials, business people and some celebrities, will have the added bonus of arriving at a White House that has been decked out for the holidays with Christmas trees, wreaths and garland. Trolley cars will ride them down to the see-through pavilion on the South Lawn.
Wednesday night, the Bidens and the Macrons dined at Fiola Mare, an Italian seafood restaurant on the Georgetown waterfront. They spent about two hours at the restaurant before heading their separate ways.
