Question

JEWISH WEDDING GUIDE

Answer

Prior to the Chuppah ceremony, the Tish and Kabbalat Panim will start at 5 o'clock in the evening. We invite all of our guests to join in these pre-ceremony traditions however, this is optional BEFORE THE WEDDING CEREMONY The Tish: A traditional Jewish wedding begins with the Groom's Tish. The Groom, along with male friends and family will sit around a table, saying lechiam's (drinking) while the Rabbi reads through the Ketubah (the Jewish marriage certificate). This is where the Ketubah is signed and the groom accepts to get married. Kabbalat Panim: This is the viewing of the Bride. While the men are in the Tish, the women will have their own separate reception. The bride is seated with her mother and mother-in-law at her side, while her friends and family approach, wish her Mazel Tov and offer your heartfelt wishes and words of encouragement. The Bedeken: One of the most exciting moments in a traditional Jewish wedding is the Bedeken or veiling ceremony. It is when the groom will see the bride for the first time. THE WEDDING CEREMONY Our wedding ceremony, or "Chuppah" will begin at 6 o'clock in the evening. This is where the wedding ceremony will take place. AFTER THE WEDDING CEREMONY Cocktail hour: This is where everyone will have some time to snack on some food and drinks while the bride and groom take a few moments to themselves before the reception. Reception: Please bring your dancing shoes and get ready to have a fun night filled with eating, drinking and dancing. We are very excited and cannot wait for you all to celebrate in our special day.
