Marriage (according to Jewish rites)

The Kiddushin and Nishvain ceremony is performed under a chuppah, in which the groom sanctifies the bride with a traditional ceremony (a chuppah means a cloth curtain stretched over poles).

("Blessed are you, O Lord, who sanctifies Israel with the hands of a bride and a bridegroom. And seven blessings...who created the fruit of the vine, and who created everything for his glory, and who created man, and who created everything, rejoices, rejoices, blessed are you, O Lord, who created" - Masekhotot Ketanot Masekhet Kella Ravati, Chapter 1, and so on: "On the Sabbath of Hanukkah, Noah married "In virginity, it is lawful...at the hands of a matchmaker, and in marriage and sanctification, according to the law of Moses and Israel" - Bialik/ From Behind the Wall, 10, 118)
