What makes a Jewish wedding “Jewish?” The couple? The rituals? The contract? The person officiating? In this episode, Tami and Shoshana attempt to answer this question. Plus Shoshana reveals a very unpopular opinion regarding the breaking of the glass and they bring out a cork board, pins and red string to piece together a Jewish FB group riddle.
