Welcome

This blog is designed to provide important information to guests of the wedding of Susan Jacobs and Jonathan Jablow on Sunday, July 6, 2008.

First things first: The invitations are in the mail. The essential information is -- the reception (kabalas panim) will begin at 1 p.m. and the ceremony (chuppah) is at 2 p.m., and the dinner and simcha dancing will follow thereafter. The entire wedding will take place at Shaare Torah Congregation, 2319 Murray Ave., Pittsburgh, PA 15217.

We are looking forward to celebrating with our family and friends, and know that those of you who will not be able to attend in person will be there in spirit.
