Chuppah

The chuppah is a tapestry attached to the tops of four poles, and, in Jewish tradition, symbolizes the safety of the home that the couple is about to build together. Jewish or not, I’m all for it. My Irish-Catholic husband literally cut down some branches in a forest upstate and we threw my nana’s quilt over the top and called it a day. If you’re feeling ambitious, you can add some wild leaves and flowers.
