WATCH THIS: Sprinklers Soak Wedding Participants During Chupah in Jerusalem

(VIDEO IN EXTENDED ARTICLE)

Guests celebrating the wedding of the Schiff and Rubin families were surprised when the sprinkler system went off and began spraying them with water from above.

Friends and family who were guests at the wedding, which took place in Jerusalem’s Ramada Hotel, got drenched without warning. One participant explained: “The family and guests were shocked when a stream of water began pouring down on them and filled the floor of the hall. We didn’t know if we should laugh or cry. It was surreal, like something from a play or movie to watch water start sprinkling down on us during the ceremony, and then come down in a powerful stream drenching everyone and covering the floor with water.”

“It is absolutely ridiculous that such a thing occurred during a wedding and in a well known and prestigious hotel wedding hall of all places. This, however, is the sad reality,” said another participant.

    WOW!! That is some waterfall, what was the problem? I know rain is a siman bracha, but do sprinklers count?

    May the young couple be “showered” with many brachot!

    It?s very nice that the commenters are giving them these gishmei bracha – brachos but please show a little empathy. Would you want this siman bracha at your Chasuna?

    Was at a wedding many years ago where suddenly it started to pour (outdoor chupah). At the time it was a tremendous mess (a sheitel macher who was attending the chasuna ran home to get her equipment), but that couple b”H made the best of it and are about to marry off their own daughter in a couple weeks be”H. In the long term, it was gishmei brocho, in spite of the agmas nefesh that it caused at the time.

    The man interviewed has such a positive attitude
    We can all learn from this
    Chas veshalom nobody got sick or killed just wet
    The couple should be blessed that this is the worst that should ever happen to them
