[Avodah] To Stand or Not to Stand for a Chosson and Kallah

[Prof. Levine]

 From today's Hakhel Email Bulletin

>Special Note One:  One more word on standing for the Chosson and 
>Kallah, from a reader:
>
>"Observe carefully Gedolim at Chasunos and you will see that most do 
>not stand for the Chosson and Kallah and some stand for a second.  I 
>have discussed this with Rav Binyamin and Rav Shmuel Kaminetsky at 
>chasunos  and the conclusion seems to have been that there is no 
>mitzvah to stand for the Chosson and Kallah, although nothing wrong 
>with it, let's stand for the Deoraisa."
>
>
>
>Hakhel Conclusion: Based upon readers asking their own Poskim the 
>question, may we suggest that everyone ask their own Posek what they 
>should do.  May each reader be blessed with this Shailah coming up 
>very often in their lives!
