Ivanka and Jared will attend the warm-up reception hosted by the President and Melania before a show at the downtown theater before the event begins.

The reception is the President's first big outing amid the city’s social and philanthropic crowd and marks the return of a tradition dating back to the Carter administration, so he and Melania made sure to dress for the occasion.

The First Lady wore a light pink floor length dress that is sure to turn heads due to its silky and shimmery fabric. She paired the ensemble with minimal jewelry and matching rose colored pumps.

The President was pictured behind in his traditional and customary black tuxedo.

Generally, the president hosts the black-tie gathering and invites a crowd of CEOs and lawmakers from around the city.

Jared seemed to be looking forward to his night as he beamed at his wife while walking her to the car on the way to the event, despite being dogged in recent days by a spate of news reports about his alleged contacts with Russian officials during the Trump transition.

However, he was the only one of the four who accessorized with a smile. Ivanka walked alongside him looking much more serious as the couple left their home as rumors of fighting between she and the President have circulated.

The President and Melania also looked notably solemn as they got into their car to head to the gala, despite the festive occasion.

Trump (seen above with First Lady Melania Trump) commented on the attack that killed at least seven people in London at a fundraiser for Ford's Theater, scene of one of the most famous acts of bloodshed in American history: the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln

Speaking at the event, President Donald Trump he will do whatever is necessary to protect the United States from a 'vile enemy' that he says has waged war on innocents for too long, vowing: 'This bloodshed must end, this bloodshed will end.'

Trump commented on the vehicle and knife attack that killed at least seven people in London at the conclusion of a fundraiser for Ford's Theater, scene of one of the most famous acts of bloodshed in American history: the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln.

'America sends our thoughts and prayers and our deepest sympathies to the victims of this evil slaughter and we renew our resolve, stronger than ever before, to protect the United States and its allies from a vile enemy that has waged war on innocent life, and it's gone on too long,' Trump said in his first public comments on the attack late Saturday in a busy section of London.

'This bloodshed must end, this bloodshed will end,' said the tuxedo-clad Trump, standing on stage with his wife, first lady Melania Trump.

'As president, I will do what is necessary to prevent this threat from spreading to our shores and work every single day to protect the safety and security of our country, our communities and our people,' he said.

Trump said he had spoken with British Prime Minister Theresa May to express America's 'unwavering support' and offer US assistance as the British government works to protect its citizens and bring the guilty to justice.
