i don’t thin k when a choson and kalla are about to start a yiddish home, and build a bais neman byisroel, there should be a mixed crowd.
Then don’t invite any non-Jews to your wedding.
i also think it strength’s the false rumors of our wealth, they can only wish for what we call a cheap wedding.
Interesting notion. Hiding in your statement is the assumption that we pay for wedding we cannot afford. Perhaps that should change.
it doesn’t add any yirash shamaim, or ahavas yisroel, so why do it.
Maybe it adds to the simcha of the chosson and the kallah? I know that I was very happy to have everyone who was at my wedding — Jew and non-Jew alike.
