The Chuppah Ceremony
Kiddushin (Betrothal)
The ceremony begins with a blessing over wine and the exchange of rings. This stage symbolizes the betrothal and the commitments that the bride and groom make to each other.
Sheva Brachot (Seven Blessings)
During the ceremony under the chuppah, the rabbi or invited guests recite seven blessings that praise God and ask for blessings upon the new family.
Breaking the Glass
The ceremony concludes with the breaking of a glass, symbolizing the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem and reminding us of the importance of family unity and faith.
