Keeping it kosher is what it is all about when preparing to have a function of this kind. Jewish Christian Interfaith Wedding is there to be enjoyed especially by the couple and obviously by the guests attending. Some will be Jews so it is best to cater for their needs so that there are not any bad feelings afterwards.
For guests that will be attending and who are of the Jewish faith, will expect that catering requirements have been included that caters for their kosher needs. Kosher embodies all those laws found in this religion that govern what may be consumed, what may not and how. If this is new to either one of the couple then time should be taken to familiarise oneself with it and preferably to consult a Rabbi.
One does not need to get into an in depth study of the many laws that govern this as it is a fairly simple exercise today to get the services of a kosher catering company. One only need to know that milk and meat foodstuffs are not served at the same time as this will go against many who keep these laws in their home and will be expecting to be served a kosher meal. Fish and meat can be served together or fish and milk products can be served together but never meat and milk together.
The Christian guests are a lot easier to please as any forms of food can be served that is well prepared and cooked to perfection. If one is going to go it alone and do the catering oneself then a Rabbi must be incorporated to advise to the dos and not dos. It is best if affordable to rather get a caterer in as they will have been certified to answer to any gastronomical needs.
This in a nutshell is a canopy made up of a prayer shawl that is hung over the couple through the duration of the ceremony. It is held erect by four poles, decorated if one wishes. It is a great way to include close friends or family by asking four men, usually, to assist in holding each pole.
A Chuppah consists of a prayer shawl strung up by four poles that the couple will stand under. It is a beautiful addition to any wedding and it can be decorated too with flowers and creepers running the length of the four poles. If one is unsure what this actually consists of it may be worthwhile searching it on the Internet to get a better idea.
If unsure of the intricacies a Rabbi should be consulted with. It is all a matter of choice but getting involved in the dos and do nots is advisable. Many guests will not be too phased about this but will enjoy the touches one has added from both religions.
The laws are extensive. With a little prodding in the right direction all will be overcome. It is a time to be enjoyed.
