The sophisticated and understated details complimented the warm speeches.
Dave Frankel explaining to a distraught Gary Milner that he can't just stomp his feet and get a PJ (Private Jet). Spencer McNally bored of Gary's nagging to get one. (inside joke).
The gorgeous bride, Ilana, with my cousins, Tanya and Mark Sternberg.
One of my oldest and dearest friends, the groom - Martin Moshal.
The grooms proud mother, Anna, and his "Best Man" - older sister Karyn who lives in London.
The couples first dance... the video is available with commentary of Martin's two left feet by Andrew Friedman.
All jokes aside, there was definitely a lot of love in the air...
and it brought a lump to my throat seeing how happy they are together.
Surrounded by so many family and friends...
the "Ruach" or "Spirit" was sky high and the Jewish dancing created an amazing energy....
where guys performed traditional "entertaining" feats for the wedding couple....
and the groom's niece joined in the fun and raced across this "man made bridge".
Jackets were discarded and perspiration was our aspiration as we danced the night away...
the ladies showing the men that they weren't going to be outdone...
they kicked off their shoes and kept the celebration going all night.
But don't think it was just Jewish dancing all night...
because the band was amazing and kept the dance floor full as we got down....
and switched between sessions of Jewish dancing and...
gettin' down to the jamz like Master Dancer Ray Goss!
Cutting the wedding cake was only a break in between the dancing...
and the moment was as sweet as the cake.
After shedding pounds of perspiration, the honeymoon couple with the bride.
Am I well trained or what? Massaging her feet while feeding her a Passion Fruit and Lemonade (my favorite South African drink).
American Durbanites have to travel all the way to South Africa to spend time with each other!!!
Da Boyz taking a break after a long night of putting everything into the celebration...
