Hi Ladies!
I'm getting married in Switzerland in May 2011, at a modern orthodox Synagogue.
Swiss weddings don't have bridal parties, usually... especially not Swiss Jewish weddings. But my fiancé is American and we'd love to have bridesmaids and groomsmen.
Trying to figure out how I can explain the bridesmaids concept to the Swiss Rabbi... how is the bridal party included in a ceremony in American modern orthodox weddings? Do they walk down the aisle, etc?
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.
