What does it mean when a man plays with his wedding ring when talking to a woman he gets on well with?

it means he likes her and would give up his marriage for her

ANSWER:

I think this married man is trying to hide his ring by covering his finger away from her so she wouldn't see that his married, and that's my only opinion. If you noticed the only married men who don't hide their wedding band and having affairs are the one who works with a woman in the same company. For others they will removed their ring as soon as they're out of their house. With my husband, he took it off so the women he meets on a dating site will know that he is not married.

How do Jewish people celebrate a wedding?

The Orthodox wedding has four parts. The first two parts are under the Chuppah (wedding canopy).

Before the ceremony gets underway, the two families meet and agree upon tanaim (what their respective financial support to the couple will be). This may take place at any time before the wedding.

Just prior to the chuppah, the groom, led by the parents, approaches the bride and places a veil upon her which will remain during the chuppah. This is based on a tradition from Jacob.

The first part of the wedding: under the chuppah, the groom gives an item of value (customarily a gold ring) to the bride and, in Hebrew, declares his intention to marry her (see Tosafot commentary, to Talmud Ketubot 3a). Then a blessing is said (Talmud, Ketubot 7b). Technically, this actually constitutes the binding stage of the engagement, and in ancient times was usually done separately from the wedding ceremony.

Between the first and second parts of the wedding, the Rabbi customarily reads aloud the ketubah (marriage contract).

The second part of the wedding: the seven wedding-blessings (see Talmud, Ketubot 8a) are sung over a cup of wine, and the bride and groom take a drink from the cup. Then a glass or plate is broken, to symbolize that even in this happy time, we remain aware of the Destruction of the Temple (see also Tosafot commentary, to Talmud Berakhot 31a).

The third part of the wedding: the bride and groom retire in privacy for several minutes to a room. This constitutes a symbolic consummation and finalizes the formal portion of the marriage. During this seclusion they break the fast which they observed on their wedding day.

The fourth part of the wedding: the couple then enter the adjacent wedding hall, and the festive meal is served to the assembled guests amid a lot of music and dancing (see Talmud, Ketubot 17a).

What is the average cost for wedding caterers?

You have to phone around and compare prices. It depends if you are having a buffet style reception (indoor/outdoor) with finger foods, or, a complete dinner. Each plate for a guest can cost anywhere from $20 - $40. Seafood is seasonable and can be expensive so stay away from this cost if out of season. Also you have to include 'corkage fees' around $7 - $8. All that means is they pull the cork out of the bottom of THEIR wine. A rip off! Sometimes some reception halls will allow a person to bring their own wine to be placed on the tables for the guests, while others don't.

As mentioned with the "corkage fee", the cost for catering includes much more than just the price per plate times the number of people. Depending on the level of service (full service, buffet, full bar, light/heavy hors d'oeuvres, etc), there will be additional costs for staffing, travel time, equipment, set-up, clean-up, etc.

Make a list of what you would like and how many guests are coming then phone different caterers and pick three, then go for the interview with them and discuss what is best for your wedding budget.

Make sure to get their estimates in writing, and that they include all the costs, not just the cost of the food.
