How are weddings done in Israel these days?
We are in a war and rockets are launched at us daily. We are not allowed to gather in large halls. So what do we do?
Last week my wife who is an event planner in Israel gave me a masterclass in emotional leadership.
Here is what the father of the bride shared with me.
The Challenge
“My daughter had been dreaming of her wedding since she was 3. When she found out it couldn’t be at the fancy venue with hundreds of guests, she was devastated.”
The Shift
“Then Rivka came along. She didn’t just plan a whole new event — she shifted the energy. She helped my daughter see that an intimate wedding could be just as magical — and maybe even more meaningful.”
The Result
“Within 48 hours, Rivka helped us design a stunning outdoor celebration. It didn’t feel like a Plan B. It felt perfect. But what changed most wasn’t the venue — it was our mindset.”

Conclusion
Behind every successful event — just like in business — is a shift in perspective.
The logistics matter, but mindset is what moves people forward.
