Shulem Lemmer joined Avraham Fried on stage for multiple musical numbers and performed the song “Memories”; a tribute to his sister who passed away a few years ago, and a nod to the intergenerational theme of the video feature, directed and produced by cinematographer Shlomo Chaim Rifkin.
Rabbi Y.Y Jacobson shared the idea that when preparing for a wedding we rely on those around us for support during this critical time in our lives. He noted that some people do not have that support system, and that Ten Yad shows up for them to guide them through this precious time. He introduced the video as one of many stories of those who do not have those resources and rely on Ten Yad to provide them with this valuable support.
The video invited the audience to take a trip back in time as Rochel, now a bubby, relives the moment in time when she was a young bride in the 70s was forced to prepare for the most important day of her life without her mother to guide her.
