You grab CJ, I'll grab PHD and Amishav can grab JAP and we'll just find a slew of Rabbis to take care of this for us all at once. Then we can have one heck of a party :)orieyentahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08196912567675213457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34805796.post-23937010011762739542007-06-10T05:54:00.000-04:002007-06-10T05:54:00.000-04:00Annie, because I'm fond of you, I will impart the ...Annie, because I'm fond of you, I will impart the true secret of how to embark on the marital journey in style, perhaps the sagest advice I have to offer: the key to a successful, enjoyable wedding, much like the key to a successful, enjoyable life, is an open bar.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34805796.post-64030647949606951532007-06-09T11:21:00.000-04:002007-06-09T11:21:00.000-04:00Thanks for the pressure to give you and the guests...Thanks for the pressure to give you and the guests a great time.

That’s what it sounded like. But it could be “forward.”). We’re here, in a good hour, to a wedding, a treat. The groom and bride, even though each one comes from a different island, from a different island (first time he says it in English, then in Yiddish), they’ve been all over the world, black and white, from near and far, let’s all make up and take each other, and so we'll drink together (I think that's what he said) Red Stripe with Manishevitz wine. Klezmorim! Play on!<BR/> <BR/>Michael Wex (writer, translator, etc) is the commentator in the end.<BR/><BR/>I love the part of the wedding when people dance for the bride (after making her cry, of course, with songs that go something like “oh, you’re no longer young, you’ll get old and fat and this is the last of your glory days.” How did that enter into the wedding repertoire??)<BR/><BR/>Anyhow, I wish it were a real wedding (preferably mine).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34805796.post-79040578760036447982007-06-08T10:46:00.000-04:002007-06-08T10:46:00.000-04:00One of the things I liked best about my and my sib...One of the things I liked best about my and my siblings' weddings was that people had such a good time, they came over afterwards to comment "You know, this was a really, really fun wedding - thanks." Yes, the wedding was for us more than them, but it's more enjoyable for the family when everyone is having a good time. People get way too caught up in stupid details like flowers on tables that nobody pays attention to - get a big dance floor, a good (and not too loud) band, good friends, and the right spouse. That's all you need.Ezziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12494592434522239195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34805796.post-44340953147078792332007-06-08T10:41:00.000-04:002007-06-08T10:41:00.000-04:00Funny I dream about the days in which I wasn't mar...Funny I dream about the days in which I wasn't married.Jack Steinerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16625864271071630940noreply@blogger.com
