Jewish Wedding Traditions: the Chuppah

The chuppah or huppah is the traditional canopy under which the bridal couple stays during the Jewish wedding ceremony, and symbolizes the home that the new family will build together.

The traditional chuppah consists of a cloth suspended on four poles and it is often decorated with flowers and greenery. The cloth can be a traditional tallit (prayer shawl) or any other kind of cloth: embroidered velvet or silk cloths or quilted chuppot are also used.

Orthodox Judaism recommends that there be the open sky above the chuppah, but this is not mandatory for all communities, and at some weddings, the chuppah is arranged indoors. I have collected for you some of the best ideas for indoor and outdoor Jewish ceremonies in Italy for your inspiration.

And now let me share with you the most stunning Jewish weddings planned by Exclusive Italy Weddings.

The chuppah was arranged under the Tea Room Pavilion in the gardens of Villa Cimbrone in Ravello, one of the most exclusive wedding venues in Italy.
