The White House expects approximately 100,000 visitors during the holiday season. It took more than 300 volunteers from across the country working a full week to decorate the inside and outside of the White House.
There are 83 Christmas trees throughout the White House, 9,810 feet of ribbon, more than 28,125 ornaments, and over 2,200 doves used to decorate the White House.
