What is the ruling on women clapping at a wedding?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah reward you. Does women clapping at a wedding and the like fall under the fourth category of our classification of clapping in the circumstances of clapping?

The Shaykh : It appears that this is from amusement. Yes, if we say that light amusement is permissible on wedding nights, then there is no harm in it. But I fear that this will be accompanied by dancing, in which case it is prohibited from this perspective.
