FH is Jewish and he would like to step on the glass at the end of our ceremony.
Does anyone have any tips on where to include that?
Also, where do you get breaking glass?
TIA!

Re: Breaking Glass-Catholic Ceremony
you should talk to your priest to figure out where it can go. Likely after exchanging vows, since it normally goes near the end of the Jewish wedding ceremony....

Not sure about when in a Catholic Ceremony you would do this, maybe ask the Officent.
I believe they use a light bulb, it's usually wrapped in a linen napkin or something.

The breaking of the glass should go at the end, right before the kiss. Any Judaica store will have a selection of glasses that you can break and some gift stores like The Collector on Merrick Ave in Merrick also has them

I don't think you actually have to get a specific glass to do it, although you probably want some kind of bag so the shards don't go everywhere. And yeah, the end would probably be appropo.

Our breaking glass looked like the top of a champagne flute in an irredescent blue color.
We bought it because it is our plan (married almost one year and slacking) to have it suspended in acrylic like this:
People use light bulbs because the glass is thin and makes a better popping sound. I do agree with the Rabbi that said it should be a glass.
