[quote=Anonymous]I am not Jewish but am marrying someone who is. I would totally be into the traditional dancing, chairs etc except for the fact that I have a health condition (genetic condition) that makes it very easy for me to get injured. My doctor, who is Jewish, and I both think it would be a very bad idea for me to get bounced up and down in the chairs. My fiancé is disappointed, but sort of understands. He doesn't think his family is going to be ok with skipping it though. He thinks we should hold the dance and he and parents will go up in chairs but I will not participate. I fear this will be hard to control, and I don't think I should have to explain to every guest at the party why I can't participate. I could see drunk well meaning clueless people forcing me onto the chair. I don't want to spend my wedding day being worried about being injured. Is it really insensitive of me to insist of not having the dance? How should I manage this?[/quote]
