He offers her a blessing and his heart
and then he RIPS THE DANCE FLOOR ASUNDER!
I laughed at that 😂
That was hilarious
Lmfao!!! 🤣
Cutest moment omg
I laughed so hard
"I hope that there's a lot of giggling in the marriage." That's adorable and very important indeed.
Absolutely..... I totally agree with it.
A friend was raised in Reform Judaism, she and her husband wrote their vows and one of the things they vowed was to 'always play'. I thought that was an awesome thing to note in their vows. Giggling is extremely important. I hope Hadassah and Ze'ev are enjoying wedded life.
@Leigh L ¿?????? Not sure who feeds you misinformation, but i would try to verify the info before writing such things if I were you. Not nice to say disparaging things that are not true. How would you feel if someone who did not know you spoke untruths about you. . .?
Peace
Yes, been married over 40 years and spouse and I laugh alot. It is good for the soul and the best medicine! The remark the elder gentlemen said about doing the dishes was hilarious!
Update on them! Hadassa and Ze'ev have a son and recently welcomed a beautiful baby girl!
Mazel tov!
Thanks for the update! That’s fantastic news! :) Do you know them personally?
Very great
Much happiness to this young family!
Mazel! That made me tear up with happiness!
The fact that the father was speaking Hebrew and I could hear the Baltimore accent 😭
hahahahah literalllllly
I thought he was speaking Yiddish
ikr😂
I love how once they got married he never let go of her hand
true love come from the soul ,spirituality.is forever ,Amen

there was so many touching details in this video, and it doesn’t help that I cry at every Orthodox wedding I’ve ever seen ... always, always.
@@Smerkiest . She may have children and yes will wear a wig. So what where is it affecting you. Nothing to do with you. You pee off back to your boring childless life.
@@II-be1ze HE got rekt
Her mother is so beautiful, youthful and prayerful. I thought she was her older sister. She’s goals!!
Flaw'd that was really nice. thank you!
Madalyn S. I was gonna say the same. I knew I know her on UA-cam. I’m a follower even though I’m not Jewish. She’s beautiful
Rivka is amazing! Her tichel tutorials are stunning with wrapunzel
youuuu knowww
check out her moms channel here on YT

i'm here after watching unorthodox on netflix, which shows the bad side of orthodox judaism. however, this was really beautiful and they really do love each other. i'm very happy for them. ❤️ i realized there are extremes and complete differences to everything and that one experience does not define an entire religion or culture.
I don't think it was about the religion it was about how the people around her abused her and mistreated her like she wasn't a hood enough jew when it had nothing to do with religion
• christa • unorthodox is about a very specific community (Satmer) within the orthodox world. They truly have their own separate society and customs and what the show depicted is not even close to how dark it can be in real life, unfortunately.
@@lolaessam2512 agreed. Notice how the husband was rude about not having sex on their wedding night; he made her feel so awful and abnormal. I thought that was how all orthodox jews were, later on you see the other women and reach out to support Esty saying they hard a hard time at first too. Her husband is an asshole, not necessarily her community
@@ariana_208 yeah the point is it's easy to use religion as an excuse to be jerk. Not only her husband women like his mom are a very big problem as they think their son is too good for anyone. Women like her are one of the reasons why a lot of men feel superior and that women are replaceable objects they raise them that way
@@veredyu Are all Satmer Hassid? I've worked with both Orthodox and Hassidic Jewish people and have heard that there is some bad relationships between the communities. I've tried to learn more but haven't found any reliable information.
When he talks about seeing how devoted she is and how it makes him want to do better, I teared up. That’s true love right there.
I am a Muslim girl and i really enjoyed watching this Orthodox Jewish wedding it's so pure and so beautiful mazel tov !!!Mabrouk !!!
ikram dostoeivsky ahahah thank u😁
@@jasmeen2334 so fun to see different ppl from different religions have respect for each other...really warms my heart
انا مسلمة يا اخي لقد اعجبني الإحتفال فقط
Is it Haram to like a Jewish wedding Allah yahdik هل هذا حرام
I am a Muslim and I like the Jewish culture ,I respect the religion is this making me a bad Muslim no I don't think so this wedding is pure and I wish them a happy life inshallah and don't forget that our prophets like Yusuf peace be upon him and Suleiman are Jewish so learn about your religion first après vient me faire un commentaire a la con
milad d akhi go learn the Arabic language I don't learn my religion in English and what war you are talking about Palestine lol it's a wedding for God sake this people are human like you and me they deserve kindness and respect DON'T talk about religion with me you are totally wrong you read the Quran in English you don't even speak Arabic and you think your self religious and you come to judge me again Allah yahdik Salam aleikoum
From a Christian here: absolutely beautiful! I have a great love and respect for your faith! I wish the couple a lifetime of happiness !
I am Christian and I highly value the desire to be holy and God is Holy!
Leonardo's Truth 🙄
Me: realizing that my crush is jewish
Also me: Wait im catholic
E Fox Take a good look and study the globe Israel is apart of Egypt which is Africa which is a African continent ,your people migrated from Europe. God gave our land and everything else away from us because we were disobedient.So stop trying to act above everyone because we are the true and living Jews and Israelites ✊🏾👸🏾🤴🏾🙏🏾
Thank you, Bette!
as an orthodox Jewish girl i feel like this is a beautiful representation orthodox Jewish culture and i love how it shows bits of life of an orthodox Jewish girl like myself :)
Yeah!! I’m a Jewish teen girl also
sarah m you should make a UA-cam video about it!!❤️
Same!!!
Same!!!
@@annasoph8967 my request to all brother and sisters all over the world is that plz go back to your scriptures... atleast must follow the one message common written in all scriptures of the UNIVERSE( BY THE HELP OF GOD I MUST GIVE YOU REFERENCES if you want WHETHER IT IS FROM JUDAISM CHRISTIANITY HINDUISM AND BUDHISM)that ALLAH ALMIGHTY (THE GOD,THE CREATOR,THE SUSTAINER,THE SUPREME POWER,THE REAL KING AND THE OWNER OF ALL) IS ONE,and Prophet Mohammed (SAW) IS HIS LAST AND FINAL MESSENGER...!!!to enter into peaceful and lovely life eternally... The truth is clear with logic... please follow for yourself... please prevent yourself from the eternal hellfire by accepting and practising atleast common message of Creator in the religious scriptures of the world....I invite all of you to show me one word of the holy Quran that is against the ethics of humanity...read about Islam...
I love this. I'm Muslim but it was so heartening to see that people take relationships seriously and communicate in an appropriate manner with the opposite gender, even during the time of marriage. It was so pure to see how happy the groom and bride were to hold each others hands for the first time. I wish them nothing but the best for the future.
5:30 "he offers her a blessing, and his heart--"
*SPONTANEOUSLY THRUSTS HIS LIMBS ERRATICALLY IN RANDOM DANCE MOVES*
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
LOL! IKR? That's what I was thinking. He does a sporatic dance!
😂😂😂
Most do not do that it is much more solemn . He was just do so happy
Islam in not the culture nor the tradition .
In fact torat, bible and Quran is the holy book from almighty
We accept Abraham ( peace upon him ) as messenger
We accept prophet Moses ( peace upon him ) is the messenger
We accept Jesus ( peace upon him ) is messenger
The only difference is
prophet Muhammad ( peace upon him )
Is the last messenger of almighty god .
Once you accept prophet Muhammad ( peace upon him )
then
There is no difference in Islam and Jews .
So I love torat and accept this the holy book from god like holy Quran .
I invite all Jews and Christians brothers and sister to accept Islam and die on imaan ( true faith )

“Don’t freak out guys” 😂😂
Whats with the people disliking this? Are you that unhappy with your own life? This people are happy, let them live. Let us live
see, I wish more people could see just how beautiful, deep and meaningful our traditions are. also i love how he is actually jumping when he holds her hand for the first time lol.
I do see it! I wish our weddings were like this, it is absolutely amazing! the purity, the respect, the joy, The love!!
I'm a reformed Jew and this is what I hope G-d will bring me when its time for me to get married. She's so beautiful and they look so much in love.
‘But it doesn’t say do the dishes’ 🤣🤣
+danaabuassamen LOL!! :)
Marshmallow 24, you quote from the video "‘But it doesn’t say do the dishes’ 🤣🤣" My response, yeah, I need to get my wife to watch this video. I am Jewish & my wife hides her Kesuba from me despite my pleas for her to show it to me. This must be the reason, so I can't prove it doesn't say that. :-)
Marshmallow 24 It seemed that his wife was less emused about it XD
..just empty the dishes.
LOL😭😭😭
"Sporadically" and then She giggles . . . Congratulations !
51 years they've been married... :)
What does sporadically means
Vady Today every once in a while
The fact that she said that almost made me cry bc all she really wants is for them to be so very happy together and isn’t that every parents dreams for their kids?
@@tinamaria4957 it means on occasion, or sometimes.
I have literally never seen a more wholesome view of marriage. If my marriage isn't like this I don't want one.
If you read the Bible you will gain a better understanding of how God desires a marriage to be. They have it beautiful because they followed God's commandments. Jesus has so many beautiful illustrations about wedding. He Himself said He is the bridegroom and the church is His bride and He laid down His Life for her. He constantly points to wedding references to help us understand how deeply He loves us. It is super beautiful
Sono felici perché seguono la parola di Dio sul matrimonio. L'amore è bellissimo quando è benedetto: è donazione, comprensione, accoglienza. Io sono sposata da più di 50 anni.
It could be, but just be happy you're the girl.
The most moving part was seeing Hadass beautiful mother pray for her daughter. There’s nothing like a mothers love ! Beautiful video

I thought it was her sister.
As a Muslim, I have a lot of respect for the Orthodox Jews 👍 they are such amazing people
As a Christian, I too have a new found respect for orthodox Jews. This video really warmed my heart.
I have as a Jew, lots of respect for Muslims, as they respect the text and follow it, and not pick and choose, what they believe in. Our religions are so close, I wish we could see it
I love this comment and all of the replies.

Hey i am muslim too and really enjoyed this video. Personally i don’t have problem with jews in-fact i respect them very much and people from other religions too (hindus,Christians...)Its the politics that divide us
I love how the mother said, “We gain wisdom from the past ... in the bounds of the past we can move towards the future.” As a young Muslim woman I resonate with that deeply. Thank you for this video.

I wish everyone took marriage this seriously. God Bless you with healthy and holy family . 😊👏👏
The bride's mom is so joyful and beautiful. And I might add, she looks like her life is satisfying and purposeful.
As a Turkish Muslim I thought this was beautiful to watch. I preserve my religious traditions and I respect that your people do too. I see strength in your culture.

@Saad Bin Masud what you said may be true for the country you live in.
@Saad Bin Masud Article "HADIS BASED ANATOLIAN WEDDING TRADITIONS" dergipark.org.tr/tr/download/article-file/147909 Reading the places mentioned in the bibliography can give you some idea.
@Saad Bin Masud Bruh your either ignorant or extremely stupid. Marriage in Islam is far from secular. It has significant spiritual significance in Islam.
OH MY GOSH I was just scrolling through UA-cam and I saw a video of a Jewish wedding. I click the video and to my surprise the bride was my batmitzvah teacher. (Hi Hadassa if you see this)(it's Michelle)
love it! hahaha
The woman, who I’m assuming is her mom, looks very familiar. Is her name Rivka? I think I used to watch her UA-cam videos.
Sarah Pipakis yes! it's me!

He looks so genuinely happy like they've known each other for ever.
They say that we marry our soul mate; my wish is for everyone to be reunited with his or her soul mate.
It may be old fashion, but i love that jewish moms , aunties, grandmother pretty much play match maker .
I think it's safer, saner and definitely more wholesome than say, meeting some random guy and hoping for the best.
May this couple be blessed and fall more and more in love each day !
I am a Muslimah and I think this was a beautiful wedding I love to learn about other peoples traditions congrats to the couple !!!!

This is wonderful.. This whole series is so wonderful! I love the part "Hadassa is so pure in her love for God... It.. It makes me want to do better, it makes me want to be a better Jew" -- I know exactly what he means, I'm Christian and so is my SO and his devotion and love to God.. Makes me want to strengthen my walk with God even more...
This is so beautiful😂 ... I'm not crying! You're crying!!
As a person who grew up Orthodox but went my own way as an adult, I still find tremendous beauty in the way the Orthodox world dates. It's truly the best. You talk about ideals and morals, and you try to see who your most compatible with first. Then comes chemistry. Chemistry can be built, but not compatibly
Muslims and Jews traditions and cultures are more similar as compared to christians..As a Muslim girl I can see a lot of similarity between the two of them .I really enjoyed this video .It is so beautiful .... May they always live happily .🥰🥰
You are related through Abraham .
This was beautiful. I come from a Buddhist family and I had very little knowledge on Jewish traditions. Love this series. This ceremony was very beautiful and meaningful.
Jewish weddings are the BEST! So many beautiful rituals, and then they have the most insanely fun receptions afterwards.
If you ever get invited to one--GO.
I went to a friend’s wedding in Israel (from Canada). It was outdoors in a parklike setting. It was FANTASTIC! They just had their second baby last Saturday.

I am Muslim and absolute love this ...I love the strong culture and traditions.
He veils her to see that it's really her, this is derived from the deception Leah and Rachel perpetrated on Jacob. He was supposed to marry Rachel, but Leah was the older, so they put a heavy veil on Leah and she married Jacob. He had to work 7 more years for Rachel's hand. The two constantly fought over Jacob's attention.
The ketubah, wedding contract, actually includes that the groom has to satisfy his wife in all ways, in addition to providing her with food, clothing, and a roof over her head.
The broken glass not only "seals the deal," but reminds us of Jerusalem, which has not been totally rebuilt yet. Wedding processions in Jerusalem only include one single instrument (often a flute), to indicate that our happiness is still incomplete.
Not Jewish but absolutely respect the responsibility promoted by this community.
Me and my husband also never held hands and kissed eachother before marriage. It was really pure to enter our marriage this way. We are now married for 22 years and still happy married.
God bless
Same here, now happily married for 15 years. When you know someone is worth waiting for you both know it’s the real deal.
May your love for our Creator increase your understanding and compassion even more for each other...God bless you forever...

I pray you always stay happy.
I am muslim . And i really can not wait to have a jewish friend so that i could potentially have the honor to attend such beatifull ceremony.
I know i am late but congrats🎉🎉
As a muslim, I really enjoyed this. Seeing the similarities in between our religions is wonderful.
Hadassa’s mother is beautiful, I love that she chooses the head scarf instead of a wig... not that there’s anything wrong with choosing to wear a wig. She just styles her scarves so well and she looks so young! The bride is just like her mother :) This whole short documentary was beautiful and very well done. I love the part where her husband comes to the Bedeken and starts dancing in front of her. You can FEEL his love for her. I’ve probably watched this over five times already!
Can't believe no one commented on the woman with the silver dress at 0:12 who is dancing off the floor. She's awesome!
The bride's mother. She has a UA-cam channel.
What I really appreciate about this couple is they know and understand each other well. They are clearly happy with their matrimony because of this.
“when i get to hold my wife’s hand for the first time, i’ll be jumping for joy!” i thought that was just the cutest thing ever
Beautifully done video!
Quick correction: the breaking of the glass doesn't make anything legal (the signatures and witnesses in the contract make it so). It is done to remember the destruction of the holy temple, even in the most happy times.
From my understanding that's actually a modern reinterpretation and the original symbolism was the breaking of the hymen (loss of virginity). With changing social conventions such frank open discussion of sex is rather taboo and it became more popular to describe it as a pious tradition rooted in Judaism. I do like the sorrowful rememberance idea but I think the more direct virginity symbolism is a lot more likely. Or the real reason may be something else. Also, the purpose of the seclusion period was traditionally to consummate the marriage. When the couple emerged, they'd be fully married.
I was always taught that the glass meant "what is done here, can't be undone"; haven't heard of the temple version.
Paelorian
No, the seclusion period was to be as long as that consummation could last at minimum. But the actual consummation was and still is, later.
You know, my grandmother said it was to chase away the evil spirits. Go figure.
I was taught that it symbolizes the end of single life to begin wedded life. Smashing the old to start the new.
Beautiful wedding. As a Palestinian Muslim, this was amazing to watch. Loved seeing the similarities we share with Orthodox Jews
No really. It is SO true! Very very similar and it doesn’t end with weddings. I’m orthodox and I feel very very connected to Muslims in a lot of ways, we live in very similarly guided ways. 💜
AGREED! I'm Jewish and Palestinian and sometimes I never know what traditions I do are from which culture! There are so many similarities.
Islam in not the culture nor the tradition .

I’m Muslim, and I feel like the issue of Palestine-Israel really put a bad taste in many people’s mouths, but I really respect these orthodox Jewish people and their religion, their traditions are so beautiful and pure. Tbh we’re really similar as people, I wish we could become closer. 😔💜✨
I think that this video should be shown to every engaged couple, no matter what their respective faiths are. Za ' ev is so respectful and sweet with Hadassah and promises to do lots of "lovely things" for her. What a sweetheart and a gentleman!!!!! I wish them all the best God has to offer!

Which one is her UA-cam channel?
What a beautiful wedding. I love all the traditions. I went to Jewish wedding once and I had so much fun. Very cute couple may they have lifetime of happiness.
Finally a clear picture of the orthodox world.
Dan E orthodox and orthodox jewish those are different religions
Isaiah 53:5
But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,and by his wounds we are healed.
I agree that this couple is lovely. I wish them well and having grown up orthodox i can tell you it is not all so beåutiful. when i was growing up there was terrible sexism and racism, tons of abuse of women and children, lousy atitudes towards non jews, and lots incest. i think this is common whenever the religion is too strict whether christian jewish muslim etc. this is lovely video and the reality is much more complex
“In two days, Hadassa is marrying a man who she’s never held hands with, let alone kissed.”

And Indian muslims as well
Muslims in general
@@shaziab3753 wdym no, it's a rule in islam
@@inquranwetrust6035 oh can a Muslim marry out of their religion? I need help
@@tragicallyhoney the rule is its not advised but its allowed for men only. This is because men are more dominant and their children will follow their dad's religion most likely. It's not allowed for women because of the same reason which is that if a muslim woman marries a christian man, the kids will most likely be Christian because of their dad
Very nice. I am Muslim and I just attended a Jewish wedding. It was beautiful and lots of fun. I find the traditional aspects of the wedding to be interesting and lovely. It's nice to see that there are young people who find being modest and keeping themselves pure important when so many people today are about doing whatever they want to do without holding onto any kind of morals. Congratulations Hadassa and Zev! I hope you have a long and happy marriage. You make a beautiful couple.
I held my husband's hand for the very first time when we exchanged vows for our wedding.... on December 24, 2016.. (I'm a Christian!) and there are no words to describe the intensity of that moment. I'm so thrilled to see a group of people celebrating marriage this way! God bless you all. Shalom!
I know that feeling had to be intoxicating and beautiful
People don't understand how special and wonderful and yes fun it all is !!! I wish more people could experience this
I always thought orthodox Jews were weird but now I have a new found respect and who cares if it is weird I do weird things all the time. Their traditions are beautiful.
Please be more nice next time.
💞 one of the many gifts in this world is enjoying our differences even though we are all basically the same. Ideally, we all learn from one another.
I am a weird , too. And i love it !
Peace, my friend
Very beautiful. Seriously loving these. The world needs more education and understanding of others cultures traditions. Thanks for sharing!
+jlatimer86 Agreed! Thank you!
I agree. Anthropology classes should be required early in life.
My husband and I had a courtship based on purely getting to know each other for the purpose of marriage and waited for intimacy until after we were married Personally I wouldn’t have it any other way. The body grows old, passion starts to die down, but it’s that person, the personality, the ability to communicate with your partner that is what should last a life time. Pure love based on principle.
+victoriayost Thanks for sharing! :)
Amen!!! I love it, I'm doing the same thing.
I absolutely agree!! A relationship based on respect, communication and similar values can last. That’s not to say the physical isn’t important- attraction is also a must, but when your relationship is based on deeper things your attraction will last regardless of what happens to the physical body over time 💞
missrivka770 I don‘t see how having a physical relationship before marriage would change anything negatively about the depth of the feelings two people have for each other. I‘d be more concerned about marrying someone I haven‘t even known for two months... but that‘s where religious and cultural beliefs seem to be different for everyone...
maknaesugerpoint I didn’t say that??
I just said that a relationship based on respect, communication and similar values is one that will last the test of time.
For me personally that meant leaving physical to last, but I am very aware that there are other ways to go about achieving the same goal
6:18 the broken glass doesn't seal the deal ( it already been sealed with the ring in the Huppah).
The broken glass is for remembering Jerusalem and the holy Tempel that been destroyed.
A truly touching way to honor the memory of a place that holds such meaning. It is always good to have traditions/symbols that are deeply rooted within our culture(s)/communities to keep us together like this.
I was looking for this comment! can't believe they didn't mention that and didn't show the verse said before smashing the glass ("if i shall forget thee jerusalem..."). it's like the most iconic part of the ceremony!
They seem to really have a spark & connection- blessings for you two and your family!
This was such a beautiful wedding and video! I love seeing Jewish weddings! I’ve shared some photos of mine on my channel and it’s so interesting to see how other Jewish people celebrate 🎉💕🎊
Elliot Bressloer What????? (It's Would've)
Jesus will come back and kick your ass.
My Jewish Mommy Life These people are KHAZARS. They are not the real Jews. They are from Poland, Russia, Lithuania, Germany, Hungary...etc
@@ThereisonlyOne426 And just what the HELL does that mean?!
@@THEMRblackboy7thst Really? Is that really what Jesus is about? Better check again.
"but it does not say I will do the dishes" 😂😂
He is so cute
As a Muslim Guy I like this almost same to us. It’s like one of us getting married 👰.
You see, God wants you to see. Your enemy is just like me. He loves you. And died for you. Rise with him brother 🙏🏼♥️🌹

I am an Iranian & I love people like you, the lovely family in this clip. I cried a little as I was touched by the beautiful and loving things done throughout the ceremony. My parents & grand parents also went through the same kind of tradition, in the old fashion Iranian style. Watching this touching ceremony reminded me that how good it is to stick with God & family & do the right things. The world outside, has become quite bad & scary. I could feel the light of LOVE among this very lovely & respectful family. The MOTHER OF THE BRIDE looks like an angel 💚 I definitely sensed the great light exuding from this wonderful lady. The bride & her family are so blessed to have her. With all my heart I wish you all the wonderful & kind people, all the best 💚
Hi I'm Muslim
Wow. Very nicely said. You have a beautiful soul. May you be blessed with truth and peace on all your paths. And love lots of love !
@@avalerie4467 Thank you for the heart warming reply and your kind view. I wish you the same. God bless you and be with you always.
What I found extremely enchanting was the sense of "community." Though thought of as a rather strange part of society, these Jews look so united and happy, like there will ALWAYS be someone there to count on, whatever the situation, where ever, when ever. That's probably the strength of tradition in this respect; in a way(depending on your own frame of references,) to be envied...Thank you for sharing this with those of us who are not Jewish and/or Orthodox...rr Normandy
Yes you are correct. If a person in Sweden or anywhere in the world is sick, having surgery, was in an accident, knifed or shot and prayers are needed the request will go on whatsapp throughout the world UNITED in prayer. That is my people.
Judaism is much, much more than a religion, or a group of weird sects living under one roof. Most of us frown upon the orthodoxy, or much worse, the crazy Chassidim. But I will defend the Orthodox and their intolerant ways to the end. Despite the enormous diversity within the Jewish "community" world wide, our support for each other and our brothers and sisters in Israel is indisputable, and we have proven it repeatedly since the founding of the State. The Chassidim may look down their noses at anyone who doesn't fit their mold of Judaism, but me, I figure if you were Jewish enough for Hitler to want to put you into a gas chamber, you're good enough for me.
That's so cool i always knew islam and Judaism was similar but this just opened my eyes, beautiful wedding
ohkay the islamic and christian weddings came to the world from the Jewish culture...
Matan Omer only some not alot also ive not be exposed to alot of jewish traditions hence why i was surprised at a lot of similarities
Well as people of the book we believe that Judaism came 1st, then it "progressed" to Christianity and then Islaam so yeah :)
Really loved this video tbh! I'm Muslim and seeing this video made me so happy!!
Localcatlady same!
This is so similar to Muslim and Arab weddings. Mazel tov!
The feeling of community and everyone coming together and truly enjoying the wedding is such a beautiful sight to behold.❤❤
PS: em' dance moves be dope
“But it does not say I will do the dishes” 🤣
😂😂😂
Support, means doing dishes, that's supporting your wife, especially if you have alot of kids, wich is very typical in the orthodox Jewish community.
What a beautiful couple and loving families! I'm so happy for you and congrats
-a Muslim here
I love that they don't see each other for a week before the wedding
This video felt so intimate to me. Wishing this couple a lifetime of happiness!
This is my favorite series R29 has ever done. Now, more than ever, we need to learn about other cultures and fall in love with the beauty of diversity. I am to wed in October, forming a multicultural family and I coulnd't be happier!
+dijt Thank you so much for sharing!! Congrats! :)
More than ever!
This one of the most beautiful weddings I’ve ever seen. The symbolism and meaning behind every single portion of it was so sweet and meaningful.
I’m jewish just to let u know we break the glass to represent the distraction of our holy temple in Jerusalem 2000 years ago and we dance saying may the couple live in the time of the rebuilding of the temple and move back to Israel
I love the wedding ceremony. Not only that, but tradition offers stability, guidelines, nurturing, an expression of love within the primacy of religious faith, planning, community structure. There is also built in respect for the physical body and the experience of sex the meaning of childbirth.
It's quite lovely imo.
I recognise the bride's mother from a youtube channel I used to watch a long time ago where she talked about Judaism! I always remember her as being so kind and lovely, and I didn't know her daughter was so big already :) This is a nice video, thank you for sharing this!
i think it was the mother of the bride? she's dressed so nice, she looks gorgeous
Lisa - I've seen her tichel/head scarves videos here on youtube. I didn't realize she was old enough to have a 20 year old daughter!
I really appreciate the amount of respect afforded to each of these world wide web ceremonies. Absolutely love this series!
Islam in not the culture nor the tradition .
In fact torat, bible and Quran is the holy book from almighty
We accept Abraham ( peace upon him ) as messenger
We accept prophet Moses ( peace upon him ) is the messenger
We accept Jesus ( peace upon him ) is messenger
The only difference is
prophet Muhammad ( peace upon him )
Is the last messenger of almighty god .
Once you accept prophet Muhammad ( peace upon him )
then
There is no difference in Islam and Jews .
So I love torat and accept this the holy book from god like holy Quran .
I invite all Jews and Christians brothers and sister to accept Islam and die on imaan ( true faith )
God give you straight way and enlighten your heart 💓
Shaikh fahad from India 🇮🇳
As a traditional Hindu, I can appreciate this sort of stuff. Beautiful wedding!
Why am I cryin in the club right now
Scarlett Adams why are you watching this in the club?? If it’s that boring - LEAVE! I’m sure UA-cam is better enjoyed from the comforts of your own home. 🤷🏾♀️ just a thought!
I totally agree UA-cam is best enjoyed at home- my comment was referring to a popular meme of a man crying in the club haha
Lol I thought I was the only one who comments like that
JuaniqueVerde ...... it’s a joke ..... 😐
My question is: why are you watching this in a club?
That's not what a badeken is for. Badeken comes from Bodek -which means check in hebrew , as in to check that she's the right one. It dates back to Jacob and how his father in law tricked him with leah at his wedding instead of rachel because she was veiled. Since then jewish grooms veil their own brides to make sure it's the right one. ;) weird but fun none the less.
Rose Kahn yep you've got a good point there.
they also got wrong the part with the two mothers breaking the dish it's not about making it legal it's just a symbolic gesture but overall they showed Orthodoxy in a positive light by the way I don't think the groom veiling the bride is weird I think it's very romantic! that's from a guy's perspective
You got learn from another man's mistake...😉😉
Badeken is a Yiddish word. It does not come from the word bodek. I don't know if Sefardim have badekens but if they do, I guarantee you they dont use the word badeken. Askenazim have badekens, which means to cover, to remind us that a Jewish women, especially a married one, is supposed as modest as Rivka, our Matriarch who covered her face when she saw Yitchok.
Rose Kahn, you state "That's not what a badeken is for. Badeken comes from Bodek -which means check in hebrew , as in to check that she's the right one. It dates back to Jacob and how his father in law tricked him with leah at his wedding instead of rachel because she was veiled. Since then jewish grooms veil their own brides to make sure it's the right one" My response, your reason is correct but your source word is not. The word badecken is Yiddish. It means "to cover". But as you said, the face is covered by the groom himself for the reason you described which relates to Yaakov and Layah. (Jacob and Leah) One other point, under the Chuppah the chusun (groom) actually takes a quick peek at his kallah (bride) just to be sure it's really her. The veil used by the kallah in the video at this wedding was kind of strange since it was see through. The whole point of the veil is to NOT see through. My kallah's veil was so thick that she had to be led because she literally could not see through the veil.
Rose Kahn interesting theory, thanks. The groom valing his bride is practiced in the Eritrean Orthodox Christian culture but is becoming rare. Its beautiful.
This is so beautiful 😍 I’m crying 😭 and lm not even Jewish ... I love their love for God
The joy expressed by the groom at the veiling ceremony was so inspiring!
You rock refinery 29!! Thank you for showing their lifestyle in a positive light!
I am not Jewish but I think it's just absolutely beautiful very spiritual I am a Latter-Day Saint and I just loved the ceremony how God was always included
Chris A is a latter day saint a mormon?
FatGungan memes yah
Mormonism is a false religion. Joseph Smith was a fraud.
Do you have nothing better to do than be negative towards other people? Bet you aren’t saying things like to anyone else. Grow a pair and say that to a member in real life, but you probably won’t coward
Leonardo's Truth how are Mormons polytheist? Do you mean polygamists?
The mainstream mormons “technically” don’t practice that anymore, since it prevented Utah from becoming a state. The FLDS still practice it, which is why everyone in the two twin towns (Hildale and Colorado City) are related.
I'm a Roman Catholic Christian and I really have an admiration and respect for the Jewish traditions of marriage and such. This is a beautiful representation of this.
I’m really fascinated how different everything works in certain religions and cultures ✨ I could watch these videos all day 😭
Mazaltov Hadassah and Ze'ev! May Hashem bless your union with love and happiness and lots of kids!
and lot of money
I do t know why I’m crying right now. So precious
watching this just made me cry. It was beautiful and so spiritual. my heart longs for this
While I'm not religious myself, I do think religion is beautiful. I cried a bit when I watched this because they make it so special and you can really see how loving they all are. Especially Hadassa's mother, she seems like an absolutely lovely woman. I wish the couple a lifetime of happiness and lots of giggling!
This video is so beautiful and pure. I’m Christian myself and seeing the differences of how Orthodox Jews celebrate their weddings is very interesting. I live in MD myself and there is a large presence of Jews and getting to understand their culture is a pleasure:)
Thank you so much for uploading more World Wide Wed videos here on UA-cam! I absolutely love watching them.
Such joy, such unbridled joy! I am awestruck and very moved. I pray for them and their children to live a long and happy life together in these troubled times. Mazel tov! From Jacque a Catholic grandma.
Awesome! I’ve never known anything about Jewish people. This was lovely & happy & gave me a taste of the unity in their entire community. I don’t think I could want this for me, but I felt the excitement & love of the couple--something one looking from the outside can see from the stark clothing that is worn. I’m divorced, but feel the best blessing God gives us are soul mates. I never had one. Refreshing! Thank you for letting us glimpse your happiness on this most holy day
