  • actually...back in olden days...the men were nervous because they had never met the bride, so they would show some trepidation of course. However, in modern times, they usually meet a couple times before the wedding, or have dated. The need to look sad is a tradition...he's all happy probably, but the sadness is more of a for show type of thing, and respect for the situation.

  • The music being played is a Niggun-the Alter Rebbe's wedding niggun (Arba Bavos). Its a very holy tune that is only allowed to be sounded a few times a year (besides for at a wedding).

  • My mother never, ever wears a Shteitle (we are Sephardic), she has her head covered though, I am currious when a woman starts wearing one, on her wedding day, or the day after, when?

  • The bride and groom are joyful, but the wedding ceremony is viewed as something serious. Its a time to pray to G-d as a bride and groom's prayers are especially meaningful and have much power on their wedding day. He is most likely saying psalms and praying for ill people and praying for a good life and marriage and asking for blessings from G-d. He isn't sad. He is focusing on the prayers he is sending to G-d.

  • What a disgusting thing to say! This is the traditional processional "niggun" (music). Everything is very solemn and somber. Then, when the glass is broken, everyone becomes very lively!

  • I know what you mean! This is utterly pitiful!!

  • It looks like they are taking him to prison.

  • I think that the groom is a Rabbi was spent years in a seminary. This may be a new and different experience for him. Also, it marks the end of the study the books period of his life and beginning of responsiblities as a husband, Rabbi, and a community leader. That is a lot to ask of anyone. Good observation.

  • Why doesn't the groom look happy and joyful? I would think his emotions coincide more with the death of someone.
