The Chuppah
The Chuppah or Bridal canopy is the central tradition in most Jewish weddings. Typically, it’s made of a cloth covering attached to four poles that are burrowed into the ground, or supported by four honored friends or family members. Always open on all sides, The Chuppah symbolizes the new Jewish home that the couple creates for one other. During the ceremony, the couple, their parents, the Rabbi, and often the Bridal attendants will stand underneath the Chuppah.
Chuppahs are traditionally made. Sometimes people will use their grandparent’s Chuppah, or make their own. One of my Brides had a very beautiful Chuppah – which was sewn together from individual squares by members of her immediate family. Chuppahs can also be rented, and adorned with flowers and other decorations.
