Bride, Groom During Jewish Ceremony

"My hubby and I really wanted our guests to feel like they were part of this important step in our lives, and not just observers," Anya says. "We started our wedding with Jewish traditions before the actual wedding ceremony, and included all of our guests. This gave us time to welcome guests before the ceremony, and to share the experience with them more fully. During the ceremony, we included Jewish traditions that were meaningful to us."
