It took her six seasons to reach that status, but yesterday (Monday) it happened. After countless couples who took the whole TV wedding thing very seriously; After watching completely grown people mumble in front of their parents, "Can you believe I'm getting married?"; And after witnessing for six years a host of dreams, fantasies and hopes shattered like a glass under the shoes of a newlywed groom, in the latest episode of "My Wedding," viewers of the series witnessed the first couple in the show's history to realize the magnitude of the status. That is, its smallness.
Wedding "Hero" (archive)
A groom who walks down the aisle and runs a one-man show of jokes and jokes because, come on, it's not really a legitimate marriage covenant. A bride who makes sure that her parents and son-in-law's parents do not really stand next to them during the wedding ceremony, because after all this is a fictitious ceremony and not a legitimate recognition of her and a stranger as married according to the religion of Moses and Israel. Proportions meet rationality. What a concept.
There was something refreshing about watching Yossi and their families take the scrambled wedding ceremony of "Wedding at First Sight" with the lightness it deserves. Heck, Chen's mother even says at one point in the episode, "It's not a real wedding" (just as Ronen's parents presumably thought a few episodes ago when they chose not to cancel a flight abroad to please some format that their son committed to on a whim). Perhaps this is also why the connection between the two was immediate and the bride and groom spent their "wedding" party celebrating together, rather than with their friends or on a corner bench on the outskirts of a banquet garden, chain-smoking and muttering to themselves "what the hell did I do with my life".
, who is nice when it explodes?
Of course, if it had been up to the program's experts, a lofty title, but we have already said more than once here - meaningless - it would have ended differently. "I think we have a problem with this couple," said Yael, a matchmaker whose chances of success in six seasons amount to two married couples, a common-law couple, and thirty others whose fingers are already in the advanced stages of gangrene from most Tinder sweeps. "Because when it explodes, it's not nice and Yossi has a short fuse," she added – and this is the place to mention that these are accurate quotes from a conversation that the experts had between them even before Yossi Chen's meeting. "Great, then," this writer completed their thoughts. "Let's match them up and see how this fiasco turns out."
Not that the two could be suspected of having a flare-up temperament. Long, golden-haired Chen runs four times a week, is addicted to fitness and comes from an imaginary place called Neve Yerek. Yossi is a football-loving concrete factory manager who says phrases like "This time Yossi doesn't run away" and "This time Yossi isn't afraid," and fantasizes about cottage cheese for dinner. At least on paper, this pair fits, because Yossi specifically demanded that he not be matched with a thick-skinned curly, and Chen is not. She, for her part, imagined a dark-skinned groom, which is usually the production's signal to do the exact opposite and pair her with a freckled, red-haired groom who goes up in flames at certain times on a July afternoon.
The Confessions Show of My Wedding. Mor and Snir,
Between the preparations for the festive evening, the wedding editors dripped small moments from the celebration called "Mor and Snir Make France" throughout the episode. Moore shoves a camera in Snir's face about the morning, the thing he hates most, and closes their restaurant seats without informing him. Snir begins to suspect that he is not a significant factor in this duo. She forces him into quick contact and he insists on taking things slowly. Mor is eager to move forward with the process and expedite it, and Nir is still in shock. You know, honeymoon.
And back to the newlyweds: After Chen hands him a scrambled children's drawing, the kind parents all over the world hang on refrigerators with false pride, Yossi dedicates a poem by Akiva to her in return. In the mingling that precedes the ceremony, it is Yossi's father's turn to shoot the tactless but sober and obvious sentence from the participants of the show at almost every wedding ceremony: "I think there are jobas there," he says, because people his age think you will leave him out of love and cameras. Yossi and Chen meet, like each other, don't get drunk to death like the other couples because the potential for embarrassment in prime time on a commercial channel is too high, and prepare for a flight to Marrakech. Truth? Cute.
