The Tisch is a gathering with the groom. The groom is surrounded by the other men at the wedding before the ceremony. This is a time for Justin to spend time with the boys!

Justin will be led out with both fathers and the rest of the men. He will meet Alli with the mothers and other women around her. Justin will lower the veil over Alli's face.

The veil symbolizes that the groom is not solely interested in the bride's external beauty, but rather in her inner beauty too.

The celebration continues as Justin is escorted out and everyone heads to the ceremony.

The chupah is a canopy that the marriage ceremony takes place under. This is a demonstration of Alli and Justin’s commitment to establish a home together; it is open on all sides to symbolize that their home will always be open to guests.

The ketubah is the Jewish marriage contract that is a spiritual union and moral commitment to each other. This was previously signed by Alli and Justin but now it is read aloud.

The Sheva Barchot (Seven Blessings) will be recited to Alli and Justin by different relatives. Each one is a marriage themed blessing.

After the blessings, Justin will stomp on a piece of glass. As the glass shatters, please join in with a heart felt "MAZEL TOV!".

At this time, Justin and Alli are officially husband and wife.

After the newlyweds are introduced, the hora will start! The hora is fun and lively so please join in and have fun!!!

And now it's officially time to celebrate!
