Shopping for him

"Shopping for him" can have at least two meanings. I found some interesing information about some religious Jews who are not sure exactly what the going price for a good groom is! Take a look at this article.


When it comes to wedding attire, one automatically thinks of the bride and her many, many choices of wedding gown. But what about the groom? He deserves something special to help remember the big day (and he can wear his again!). How about a special kippah just for the groom. This Bukharan kippah from Edna Sandler is made of Ivory White Jacquard fabric.

A blessing on your head!

Being married is a blessing. Being married to the right person is a miracle! Somehow or another millions of people manage to form unions which are of the miraculous variety. For others they kiss many of frogs and still do not find their prince(ss).
That is where places like J-Date come into play. J-Date, for those of you who may be living with your head in the sand is an internet dating site for Jewish boys and girls who want to meet each other and make a shiddach!

As in most endeavors, success at Internet dating is often the result of knowledge, energy, and attitude. But even with a great approach, luck and timing are sometimes what make the difference. After all that work, you just might find your soul mate while casually browsing profiles at 9 a.m. on a Saturday.

For one single guy in New York City, that’s exactly what happened.

“I was going through profiles and looking for someone more alternative and artsy,” Dave says of his Saturday morning surf on JDate. “One definitely jumped out; very ‘Amelie’-esque. I thought, ‘Ah, I’ll bookmark that…’”

Sara’s charming photo showed her in a photo booth blowing bubbles. Sara says she was “looking for someone who was in touch with his Jewish side and who had Jewish values, but was hip and creative.

Little did she know, her well-chosen profile picture had attracted the attention of just such a fellow. And he immediately contacted her. Find more about their story here...



These stunning kippot come from the website of Nicole Curl and Jan Marie Lanier who are the owners and artists for Silk Bijoux. Who would have thought it? Not only can you meet the love of your life, but you can also find the loveliest of kippot all on the internet! G'd is a miracle worker!!!

Wedding Kippah

I have to confess that I find those complementary satin wedding kippot that are handed out kind of tacky (BANG- that was the sound of many blog readers turning off their computers). They are cost effictive, but I just don;t like them. Personal taste.

What I do like are these from Bonnie Yales. They are unique and colorful and personal. While certaily not cheap... your guest would leave your wedding with a wonderful momento!
