Anyone have a pic of a chuppa?

Preferably the one from Jericho Terrace. I have no idea what it looks like. I don't even know what it is... But I know it's something that has to be decorated for the ceremony. Please help me. I'm so confused. Do we NEED a chuppa??

Are you Jewish? Is your FH?

I thought a chuppa was a Jewish tradition. That's what you get married under in a Jewish ceremony. I'm not Jewish so forgive me if I'm wrong about what it means and what it is used for. But I've been to Jewish weddings and they all had chuppas decorated by their florist. Assuming you are Jewish and you need a chuppa, your florist should be able to give you ideas and show you pics of what they can do.

My FH's family is Jewish. I'm Italian. Is it just some kind of canopy that we stand under?

yes, it can be hand-held on poles or free-standing. if your hall supplies them, they should have pics, if not, your florist should be able to make one. or u can also rent one from a judaica shop like yussels in merrick.
