Chair lift at a non-Jewish wedding?
MrsBeetoBe in Etiquette and Advice, on September 10, 2017 at 3:31 PM

Anyone seen this? We love the hora but aren't remotely Jewish. We wouldn't use the song but we're contemplating a chair lift at the reception. Thoughts?

MrsBeetoBe in Etiquette and Advice, on February 10, 2018 at 10:36 AM
