A
traditional Jewish wedding is full of meaningful
rituals, giving expression to the deepest
significance and purpose of marriage. These
rituals symbolize the beauty of the relationship
of husband and wife, as well as their obligations
to each other and to the
Jewish people.
In traditional Jewish literature marriage is
actually called kiddushin, which translates as
"sanctification" or "dedication."
"Sanctification,".
Shidduch - The
very first stage of a traditional Jewish marriage, is
the shidduch, or matchmaking. |
|
When the families have
met, and the young couple have decided to marry, the
families usually announce the occasion with a small
reception, known as a vort. |
|
Ketubah - At the
reception itself, the first thing usually done is the
completion, signing and witnessing of the
ketubah, or marriage contract. |
|
Bedekin - After
the signing of the ketuvah, which is usually
accompanied by some light snacks and some hard liquor
for the traditional lechaims (the Jewish salute when
drinking, which means, "to life!"), the groom does the
bedekin, or "veiling." |
|
Chuppah - The
next stage is known as the chuppah, or "canopy." The
chuppah is a embroidered cloth stretched or supported
over four poles, and is often carried by attendants to
the location where the ceremony will take place. It is
meant to symbolize the home which the couple will
build together. Embroidered cloth usually used is a
tallit. |
|
Kiddushin - The
groom, now takes a gold ring and places it on the
finger of the bride, and recites in the presence of
two witnesses, "Behold you are sanctified (betrothed)
to me with this ring, according to the Law of Moses
and Israel." |
|
Sheva Brachos - After this, the sheva brachos,
or seven blessings, are recited, either by one Rabbi,
or at many weddings a different blessing is given to
various people the families wish to honor. |
|
Cheder yichud -
Now that the couple are married they are accompanied
by dancing guests to the cheder yichud, "the room of
privacy."
