why are there leaves sewn onto the chuppa?

Spent most of this weekend preparing, attending and recovering from Mike and Margo's wedding. It was a wonderful affair and was one of the loveliest weddings I've ever seen. They had both a priest and a rabbi officiating and the vows were spoken in both hebrew and english. The ceremony was held in a rose garden of a victorian manor in upstate New York. Everything was decked in autumn colors except for the Ms, who were in fairly traditional wedding outfits. They had strewn leaves and lit candles all around the pond and fountain in the garden. The reception was in the manor proper and lasted until the wee hours of the morning. Both Ms looked incredibly happy and I don't think either of them stopped smiling during the entire evening.

No, we were most of the way across MA before we realized we'd forgotten the camera. We're just going to have to bum copies of his stuff off of Simon.
