The wedding between members of two prominent Ultra-Orthodox Jewish families in Jerusalem drew a remarkable 25,000 guests from all over the world.
Guests had to use binoculars to see the ceremony in which 18-year-old Shalom Rokeach wed 19-year-old Hannah Batya Penet.
According to the Independent, Rokeach is the only male heir to the Blez Rebbe aristocratic dynasty, which can trace its roots to 14th-century Poland and leads one of the largest communities of Ultra-Orthodox Jews in the world.
The videos below give some sense of the scope of the massive ceremony.
