Five Chuppah Ideas Worth Considering
Every supplier has a list of their best chuppahs, and every list is really a list of what the supplier most wants to hire out. Here is a more useful version: five designs and the wedding each one is genuinely right for.
The uplit Perspex, for a tall dark ballroom. Clear acrylic columns lit from within. It is the most requested design we hold and it earns that in one specific setting: a large room where the light can be controlled. In flat daylight you are paying for a glow nobody sees.
The Gold Frame, for a room that already has gilt in it. Warm polished gold against warm ambient light and existing gilt cornicing looks inevitable rather than added. In a stark white modern space it looks delivered to the wrong address.
Birch, for a florist you trust. If your florist is good and you are giving them budget, give them birch. The branching poles let them work at every height and the result looks grown rather than assembled. It is the best floral scaffold in the collection and it is not close.
The Mirror, if you want the ceremony talked about for a year. Reflects the whole room back into itself. Not for everyone, which is the point – a design that suits every couple excites none of them.
A family tallit, if there is one. If your family has a prayer shawl, nothing on this list will mean as much on the day. We build the supporting frame around your tallit’s exact size and weight rather than asking an heirloom to fit a standard structure. It can be combined with almost any frame, so you are not choosing between meaning and design.
