Let’s end the wedding madness. Only thing madder than wedding madness, is “singles madness” A.K.A Shidduch crisis.
no requirement to go to a wedding (except of course for the hasan and kalah, they have to come).. Not quite so akuperma:- I hereby refer you to 2nd Perek of tractate Kiddushin, which discusses option of his Sheliach, of her Sheliach, and of both of them sending down a Sheliach.
Maybe akuperma, you may recall August 2004, when Yigal Amir for reasons beyond his control, was unable to attend his own wedding, yet still got married, because of a Sheliach.
BTW institution of Sheliach is learned from a Possuk in Parsha from 2 days ago:- “Ken Torinu GAM Attem”.
