Each Monday, we choose the most interestingly Jewish announcement from that Sunday’s New York Times Weddings/Celebrations section. This week, it’s that of Dana Winik and Josh Kekst, married Saturday night at the Pierre. She hails from Westchester; her father’s a dentist, her mother is the bookkeeper (and by the way has anyone written the trend piece on that?). He hails from Manhattan, or so I would imagine, given that his mother sits on the Jewish Museum board and his father is a former chairman of the board of the Jewish Theological Seminary. The two met in college: Brandeis, natch. Mazel tov to the happy couple!
