Non-Traditional Chuppah
February 20, 2012
I was pretty sure this would always be my favorite chuppah (or mandap, or canopy depending on your religious affiliation). But when I saw this little gem on Style Me Pretty today, I thought it was the prettiest non-traditional chuppah ever and had to share.

I doubt this is meant to be a *chuppah*, per se – many non-Jews are having wedding canopies because they think chuppahs are “pretty”. And it’s not just the total absence of a rabbi or a kippah on the groom’s head, or no traditional attendants on either side that make me think this – it’s the fact that the structure looks like a *church* that sort of screams “not Jewish” to me.
