It was long overdue, and finally, on a beautiful sunny Friday morning of mid February, my older brother Shai married his gorgeous better half, and the perfect fit to our growing family- Odelia. 

From the get go, the plan was to have a low key, casual wedding celebration with only close friends and family. The venue chosen was the Garden Hotel in Haifa, our hometown, and once the venue was decided, the entire thing was planned in no more than a couple of months (we actually only finished the sitting charts the night before), which probably made this wedding the most effortless wedding that ever took place. 

I guess my objectivity is in question, given that the groom is my favorite and only brother and the bride is one of my besties, but it’s not often I get this excited and emotional at weddings. I loved everything about it, and most of all I loved the fact that each of their choices was a perfect expression of their personalities and relationship. 

As far as the ceremony goes, they kept it traditional, with our cousin officiating the wedding, and our uncle doing the seven toasts. This was not only an honor and a privilege, but also made their union extra special.
