Hasidic Jews love 'nothing better than a wedding'
North London's highly orthodox and intensely private Hasidic Jewish community "loves nothing better than a good wedding", a BBC documentary has revealed.
Filmmaker Paddy Wivell who spent three months with the Hasidic Jews, found despite men and women being segregated at weddings, the reception is a time for both sexes to celebrate.
The father of the groom, Avi Bresler showed his nerves, and put on drinks, food and dancing for his guests.
Hasidic Jews can attend about 100 weddings a year in their community.
