I’ve been to a few weddings where “almost nobody” came and it was a pleasure not being pushed to the 3rd (or 4th) circle by over energetic bochrim.
Just dancing for the sake of making the Chosson [and Kalla] happy.
When did rowdy and mesameach become synonyms?
The nicest wedding I went to had a keyboard with a single loudspeaker and only friends who really knew the couple. It was an amazing affair with EVERYBODY dancing and being happy.
As to “The Wedding Customs”; the list of things that MUST be bought/done grows all the time… yet many of us married for a mere 20+ years never heard of any of them.
