Chuppah

A chuppah is a Jewish wedding canopy that symbolizes the couple’s future home and new life together. Typically a cloth or fabric draped over four poles, it is open on all sides, representing hospitality and openness. The chuppah is often decorated beautifully and set up at the wedding ceremony site. It holds significant meaning, emphasizing community, protection, and the intimate bond between the couple as they begin married life. Its presence is a central element of Jewish wedding traditions and rituals.
