It has been described as America's own royal wedding.

Today, Lauren Bush, granddaughter of former President George Bush the First and niece of former President George Bush the Second, will marry David Lauren, son of Ralph Lauren, in a Western-themed ceremony at his fashion designer father's ranch in Colorado.

The wedding and lavish reception that follows it will feature sunflowers, country music, and Taco Bell.

"We wanted the wedding to be a nod to the common people watching us on tv in their little apartments and trailer houses," said David Lauren. "We wanted to include them in this orgiastic celebration of love."

The Taco Bell, David said, was Lauren's idea. "She wanted to think outside the bun with regard to the food we served, so we chose Taco Bell. Most Americans can't even spell chicken piccata, let alone be expected to know what it is. When they see the paper Taco Bell bags with their sacred grease spots sitting on the hand-carved, gold inlayed oak picnic tables, they'll say to themselves: 'Hey! David and Lauren are just like me!'"

Country singer and offspring of alliteration-happy parents Michael Martin Murphey is providing music. Murphey, America's number one singer of cowboy music and a leading promoter of the 'Western lifestyle', is never seen without his trademark cowboy hat or rootin' tootin' cowboy boots, both of which, along with the guitar he strums, are made in China.

Sunflowers will be a major component of both the wedding and reception.

"He loves those," Carol Socorro of Living Springs Farms told the Durango (Colorado) Herald. "I make six bouquets for him each week when he's here. He likes flowers that grow naturally around here and sunflowers are his favorite. His love for the West isn't an act, even though he spends most of his time in The Hamptons, looking at photos of it and surrounding himself in its decor."

Lauren Bush, 27, is a humanitarian doing all she can to save starving schoolchildren by designing handbags and giving them a percentage of their sales. She also has a busy New York social life and works hard at staying extremely thin so she can make the other wealthy women she hangs out with jealous.

David Lauren, 39, works in his father's fashion business where he has quickly risen up the corporate ladder through nepotism. His salary is well over a million dollars, even though he rarely goes in to the office and can usually be found watching cowboy movies in his 800,000 square foot 'ranch house' out in The Hamptons. Recently, he learned how to drive a pick-up truck.

Lauren considers herself traditional and will be changing her last name to match her husband's. "I think it's so cute when couples do that. Friends and family told me to 'hyphenate' so I wouldn't be Lauren Lauren, but I don't even know what a 'hyphenate' is."

David Lauren and Lauren Lauren will make their home in New York, with frequent vacations to the Western part of the country. Around 2014 or 2015, they plan to divorce.
