I'm looking for places to hold a weekend sheva brachot in Israel in the winter for family. Preferably a place where we could also hold the wedding. Somewhere small and beautiful. Anyone have any recommendations?

- By "weekend," do you mean Shabbat? What day of the week is the wedding? Fri morning?
- How many people?
- Do they require lodging?
- Price range? I assume you considered hotels?
- What part of Israel?

- How many people? For shabbat? probably 50 or so.

- Price range? I assume you considered hotels? We want somewhere small, not a huge hotel. Something like a smaller hotel or a kibbutz style hotel.
- What part of Israel?
Either near Jerusalem, or somewhere else an hour or two away. It will be in the winter, so pluses for being warmer.

My cousin did her wedding juuuust before shabbes. As a result only the non shomer could attend (even some of the non shomer didn't just beshita). Sad It was a kibbutz.

150 people is considered small for an Israeli wedding, so you may be better off with a hotel offering a variety of conference rooms than a wedding hall.

A healthy chunk of E"Y is an hour or two away from Jerusalem. Tel-Aviv, anywhere in the Mercaz, Caesaria, Herzliya,

How about the hotel at Kibbutz Ein Gedi? http://www.en.ein-gedi.co.il/

Ramat Rachel is a good suggestion but we want something smaller, not a huge hotel. Ein Gedi is nice but there is no where there really to do the actual wedding. Any other suggestions similiar to those?

There is a small boutique hotel in the Judean Hills (near Y'lem). Now sure if they do weddings.
