Einaty, does this thing work?
I think so.
The light's on.
Hi everyone! Up here on the screen.
We're very sorry that we're bothering you while you eat.
Eat, eat, don't let us interupt you.
Just don't forget to save us a little artichoke.
While we're here in the Yichud room.
Doing...
Well, let's not talk about what we're doing.
We just wanted to tell you
a little bit about whats going to happen this evening.
You guys are probably confused,
and not sure what to expect.
After all we, come from totally different worlds:
Canadians...
Kibutznikim...
Datiim...
Secular...
Children...
Elderly...
But we promise you that it is a winning combination.
So now that we're done with the chuppah...
It was nice, eh?
It was amazing!
...a little longer than I'm used to.
But absolutely amazing.
So what else are we going to do this evening?
Soon we will come out of the Yichud room,
and we will begin dancing....
Chasidic dancing - obviously.
Obviously.
Separately: Men together, and women together.
We'll dance until the next course.
We hope you came with energy.
So for the less religious among you
Who don't know these dances from childhood:
These dances are...circular...
Like folk dancing
So even if you don't really know what you're doing
Just go with it. Neither do we!
The rhythm will change.
Sometimes it's faster...
...and sometimes it's slower.
Ah, that's just because...
...we're trying to catch our breath.
In short: just go with it and have fun.
After the next course
there will be a few speeches and presentations
and after that
we'll take away the mechitzot
and take off our suits
and we'll dance again
and this time
not in circles
YALA BALAGAN
Do you want to continue?
yala balagan
Later, there will be delicious desserts
and we will say sheva brachot again.
Similar to under the chupah.
There's just one more thing
that we wanted to talk to you about:
We know that...
weddings are a great place to make a shidduch...
and we're hopeful...
...well, there are a few more people here left to set up.
But, because of the complex crowd here
we thought it pertinent to give you a few guidelines:
Guideline 1: Women wearing hats...
are not making a fashion statement.
It just means they're married.
So...you should probably watch out for their husbands.
If a religious guy talks to you
and he doesn't give you his hand:
It's not that your hair is messed up.
...or that your makeup ran.
He might just be shomer negiah.
So how can you tell the difference...
between a religious woman and a secular woman?
It's very simple:
Just remember "MAHAK".
"MAHAK"?
visible cleavage
length of the skirt
and visible tatoos.
How can you tell the difference
between a religious guy and a secular guy?
That's even easier!
Just look for his kippa.
Ok Aaron,
Let's save some of their energy for the dancing.
Bon Appetit!
