you have the memories, but it's
the video and the pictures that
keep it alive,' she said.
"It's something that I would
highly recommend to anybody
getting married. We've watched it
over and over again. I never get
tired of seeing it because I always
see and hear something different,"
she said.
In regards to overall
preparation, she said that she felt

"I didn't want showers or the
traditional wedding dress or the
longer aisle at Shaarey Zedek;' she
recalled.
"I didn't want all of the
glamour, but I got it anyways, and
I'm happy I had a loving family
and friends who told me I should
do it that way — the best, and we
did:"
