Subject: [Avodah] If there is a chosson present at the Shul?s shalosh
From Today's OU Kosher Halacha Yomis
Q. If there is a chosson present at the Shul?s shalosh seudos, should Sheva Berachos be recited?
A. One of the requirements to be able to recite Sheva Berachos is that the
meal was prepared in honor of the chosson and kallah (Orchos Chaim ?
Hilchos Birkas Hamazon 61). Regarding a Shul?s shalosh seudos this is not
the case. The meal is prepared each week for the members of the shul,
whether or not there will be a chosson present. If the members of the shul
added extra foods in honor of the Sheva Berachos, then this would qualify
(Teshuvos V?Hanhagos 1:749). Another requirement is that the meal be
prepared in honor of both the chosson and the kallah. If it was known that
the kallah was not going to attend the shalosh seudos then sheva berachos
cannot be said. However, Rav Belsky zt?l (Shulchan HaLevi 27:25) writes
that if the meal was prepared in honor of the chosson and kallah, and the
kallah was supposed to attend but was delayed and did not show up, Sheva
Berachos may be said so long as the chosson is present.
