Fun Facts about Israeli Weddings: You will NOT go hungry When you arrive to the grove there is the Kabbalat Panim where you can greet us and enjoy the reception before the wedding. There will be lots of appetizery finger foods and drinks. (Nir always says to eat a lot at the Kabbalat Panim, he thinks it’s the best food!) The Chuppah will be outside and it will be warm. The wedding will start just after sunset. More than anything, we are so excited to share the Chuppah with all of you. We have been working with Rabbi Mari, Matan and Elnatan to create a truly special ceremony. People don’t sit during the ceremony. It will be less than thirty minutes and the chairs are for those who need them. Once we enter under the Chuppah, people will squish up close to be near the action. Weddings are basically all dancing. It is literally commanded that you celebrate with us. Come ready to party. Important Info for wedding travel
