Kabbalat Panim + Bedeken
5:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Before the formal ceremony begins, we invite you to join us for the Kabbalat Panim. This is a traditional part of a Jewish wedding where Lauren and Vincent will greet guests separately, surrounded by loved ones, music, and celebration. It’s a chance to say hello, share blessings, and soak in the excitement before the formal ceremony.
Chuppah
6:00 pm
The heart of the wedding ceremony takes place under the chuppah, a traditional canopy that represents the Jewish home Lauren and Vincent will build together. Surrounded by family, friends, and blessings, this sacred space symbolizes openness, protection, and love. Here, the couple will be sanctified in marriage through blessings, the giving of the ring, the reading of the ketubah, and other time-honored traditions. Join us as Lauren and Vincent begin their life together beneath the chuppah.
Reception
6:45 pm
Following the ceremony, please join us for the reception: an evening filled with celebration, delicious food, and lively dancing. Dinner will be served, followed by joyous dancing that is a hallmark of Jewish weddings.
