Making Your Own Chuppah
A Reform Perspective by Rivka C. Berman

The originality and personalization of a chuppah are limited only by your imagination. Florists will only be too happy to show you the garlanded chuppot they have created with clouds of tulle and twinkling lights. Outdoor gazeboes can be pressed into service.

Couples have commissioned landscape artists to create chuppot out of woven vines and greenery. chuppot fashioned from a tallit and four poles are simple and elegant. Some couples ask friends and relatives to embroider or decorate cloth squares, which are then sown into a chuppah quilt that is later hung in the home.

Artists will batik dye, tie dye, weave, paint or hammer out chuppot based on your personal preference.
