The Chupah Talit

The talit is commonly used in prayer, but the chupah talit is used for wedding ceremonies. The chupah talit is also referred to as a wedding canopy, and depending on certain practices, can be worn underneath a talit.

The chupah talit is usually held by four poles, one at each corner. Although the chupah talit should be held outside, some celebrate weddings indoors. The chupah talit should be an objet d’art, and as such is prized for its beauty and its symbolic meaning.

The canopy is open on all four sides, which means that the Jewish home is welcoming. It is supposed to represent the home of Abraham. There are no designs on the talit, which means that the Jewish home is supposed to be without embellishment. It is simple, and not defined by materiality.

The reason for the talit to be held under the sky is to commune with G-d. It signifies the sacred union of marriage, and its natural origins. The talit should remind the couple of their commitment to each other, and their commitment to G-d.
