Chuppah
Jewish weddings consist of two separate parts: the betrothal ceremony, known as "erusin" or "kiddushin", and the actual wedding ceremony, known as "nisuin". The first ceremony (the betrothal, which is today accomplished when the groom gives a wedding ring to the bride) prohibits the bride to all other men and cannot be dissolved without a religious divorce ("get"). The second ceremony permits the bride to her husband. Originally, the two ceremonies usually took place separately. After the initial betrothal, the bride lived with her parents until the day the actual marriage ceremony arrived; the wedding ceremony would then take place in a room or tent that the groom had set up for her. After the ceremony the bride and groom would spend an hour together in an ordinary room, and then the bride would enter the "chuppah" and, after gaining her permission, the groom would join her.
