David + Abby!

While most couples are content to simply greet their guests during their cocktail hour with hugs, kisses, and handshakes, David and Abby were busy serving up instant icecream on a 100 degree day by pouring liquid nitrogen over milk, cream and sugar in front of the James J. Hill Library.
How cool is that?!? Super awesome wicked cool….

BEDEKEN – Veiling of the Bride
Before the Chupah ceremony, Yitchok, escorted by his father and (about to become) brother-in-law, and accompanied by relatives and friends, goes forward to veil the bride.

Before the Chupah all knots on the groom’s garments are untied. All jewlery is removed.
This symbolizes that at the moment of marriage all other bonds are eliminated, except this intimate one made between the bride and groom.

Yichud time – the first moments that the bride and groom are alone together.

Yitchok’s Father and 2 of his 9 sons! Wow!!
