Jewish weddings are rich in traditions that have been passed down through generations.

The chuppah is a canopy under which the couple stands during the wedding ceremony. It symbolizes the new home that the couple is creating together and the presence of God above them. In some Jewish traditions, the bride circles the groom seven times under the chuppah. This act symbolizes the creation of a protective wall around the couple and the building of their new home together.

The wedding ceremony begins with blessings over wine, followed by the recitation of the Kiddushin, which is the betrothal blessing. The groom places a ring on the bride's finger while reciting the traditional words of betrothal.

At the conclusion of the ceremony, it is customary for the groom to break a glass by stepping on it. This symbolizes the destruction of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem and serves as a reminder of the challenges and sadness that exist even in times of great joy.

The ketubah is a Jewish marriage contract that outlines the rights and responsibilities of the groom toward the bride. It is signed by the couple in front of witnesses.

The hora is a lively traditional dance that is often performed at Jewish weddings. It holds great significance and is considered a joyful and celebratory moment during the wedding reception.
