President Joe Biden was inaugurated on Wednesday, making him the 46th president of the United States.
Although the coronavirus pandemic and security concerns made the inaugural celebrations different this year, the Biden family still managed to celebrate their patriarch's accomplishment with an Inauguration Concert.
The concert featured performances from stars like Katy Perry, as well as a fireworks show.
It was unclear if the corsage was actually a gift from the president at the time of writing; the first lady's press team did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.

Jill is not the first, first lady to wear a corsage during an Inauguration celebration, though. Mamie Eisenhower and Betty Ford both wore corsages during their husbands' swearing-in festivities, as Vogue reported.
