מי ברעש Who (will die) by noise ((actually, this context refers to an earthquake) |
Bands in some weddings and other Jewish events destroy the simcha. They are too noisy. They impede thought and communication among the guests.
A wedding should be a time of sober self-evaluation and prayer. It should also be a time in which guests can talk to each other. The band should enhance that atmosphere.
