{Real Jewish Weddings} Hilton Head Island, SC

Cindy and Andrew, another JDate success story, got engaged where it all began for them. Andrew took Cindy for a walk to the place he first fell in love with her and proposed to her with sentimentality and sweetness.

Judiasm was a big part of their ceremony. Cindy’s rabbi, who performed her baby naming, was a big part of how they chose their date. They weren’t thrilled with getting married on a Sunday, but it was very important and special to have him perform their ceremony so they made sure to make the wedding for a date that would work for him. The rabbi also made the wedding ceremony special for all of the guests by explaining each tradition and making the customs accessible to Jews and non-Jews alike.

Cindy and Andrew had eight nieces and nephews from 18 months to six years old in their wedding ceremony, so it’s no surprise that anything that could happen did! As everyone was getting ready to walk down the aisle, Cindy’s four-year-old nephew who was a ring bearer caused a delay with an unexpected bathroom emergency. Kids will be kids! But that was the only hiccup and with so many kids involved in the wedding party, that’s not too shabby at all!

Mazel tov, Cindy and Andrew!
