She is Kleinfeld's consultant for religious/modest brides. While is is Jewish, she also works with Muslim and Christian brides who want more modest dresses. They actually bring in a lot of their modest dresses from designers in Utah, where modest dresses are more is demand because of the high number of LDS brides who require, at minimum, covered shoulders. Many of them want long sleeves or inserts for the ceremony itself (which requires long sleeves) and they have shorter sleeves for the reception/ring ceremony. HOwever, there are a handful of Jewish designers there in NYC, too. They just don't necessary sell to Kleinfeld.

I found a place that did respect what I believed in. when my sister got married we had a really bad time. They was suppose to put sleeves on her dress and only put straps on it . The next day was her wedding so her and I made some kind of cap sleeve for it she felt indecent all day. We have never even worn a tank top before and it felt odd to her. Why people can't respect each other I will never understand. There should be wedding dresses for all beliefs. No one should be made to feel strange.

Her face shined when she was wearing the first one. That is what people helping the bride should be looking at.

I met my husband in an AOL chat room when I was looking for good conversation. The conversation was like watching grass grow and I was about to log off when he asked, “Why aren’t you speaking?l “I said because no one has spoken to me.” He was in another country. We spoke every night for 3 weeks when I realized I needed to end our friendship. I wasn’t going to move and I would never ask him to move. He wouldn’t have it! We met in less than 3 months and h survived my family. I knew when he stepped off the plane he was going to marry me, but said nothing. On the second visit he proposed when we were standing in a waterfall! Then, he returned home. He was back 1 month later and we saw an immigration lawyer who said we needed to wait 30 days before marrying. We have been married well over 20 years and have 5 kids and 2 grandchildren with many more grandchildren to come! We never want to be apart! We are woven together like the triple standard cord with Jesus Christ!

They just have the option to add the lace. This is normal to the community to have the option for alterations but not necessarily be able to try it on. It’s the same with regular clothes on NY and NJ. The community knows which non-orthodox shops carry things that come in the lengths they want but they don’t expect it to be off-the-rack. Of course they also have the option of orthodox shops but they tend to be more old-fashioned in their fabric choices (think 70s and 80s). Which is the preference for many but the fashion-forward people not so much.

Awww this is so wholesome, I love it! Congratulations to this happy bride and her friendly/supportive entourage!

@ deathbyblond. The matchmaker is orthodox but bending the rules. In the orthodox world we would say she is more modern. Her standards of modesty would be considered not ok by most orthodox people, however, like ALL cultures we have a continuum of people. Some are more conservative than others and some are more stringent than others. In fact, this is exactly what the matchmaking would accomplish - weeding out where you are on that continuum so that by the time you meet you have someone who is in a similar place
