What makes Israeli wedding planning unique?
High guest counts (250–500), the Rabbinate process, kashrut considerations, security requirements, Thursday/Sunday events, and the blend of traditional and modern elements make Israeli weddings distinct.
How do I handle family dynamics during wedding planning?
A good planner serves as a diplomatic buffer between families, manages expectations, and offers neutral advice. Establish decision-making roles early and communicate boundaries respectfully.
