[nb-NO]Title[nb-NO]Photograph of the wedding of Jackie and Tony Weiss, 1983
[nb-NO]Creator[nb-NO] David Huban (photographer)
[nb-NO]Description[nb-NO]Colour photograph of Jackie Weiss (nee Wise) and Tony Weiss under the chuppah undertaking kiddushin (betrothal ceremony).
The couple are completing kiddushin: the first part of the Jewish wedding ceremony begins with a blessing over the wine, and a sip taken by the couple.
The chuppah is a wedding canopy dating back to the tent-dwelling Jewish nomadic days in the desert. Historically, Jewish wedding ceremonies were held outdoors, and the chuppah created an intimate, sanctified space.
This is part of a collection of images photographed by David Huban representing some of the rituals and customs at a Jewish wedding.
