Many Jewish couples prefer getting married under a wedding chuppah, which is a canopy that is installed in the place where the couple is to be wed. It usually consists of a sheet of cloth, sometimes even a tallit, and is tightly stretched over four poles. In some weddings, attendants might be hired to hold up the chuppah while the couple gets married. In places such as Hawaii, where cultural and traditional weddings are very prevalent, most people have to book their wedding chuppahs in Maui well in advance. Here are a few tips to help you make a booking as early as possible.
Place a Custom Order
Depending upon the area in the wedding chapel to be covered by the canopy, you might want to consider placing a custom order. While ready-made wedding chuppahs are easily available, many people prefer using a special kind of cloth for their chuppahs. There are plenty of companies through which you can book a chuppah several weeks in advance. You should visit Mauirents.com if you are looking for high-quality chuppahs at affordable prices.
Fitting the Chuppah
Once the chuppah has been delivered to the venue, you will need to fit it on the flagpoles on each side. This is relatively easy to do, but you have to put up the canopy before decorating other parts of the room. You will want to make sure that the chuppah doesn’t get dirty during the decorating process. You can hire local workers and decorators to fix the wedding chuppahs in place and ensure that the canopy is taut and set up properly. If you are going to an open-air wedding style, the chuppah should be brought in just before the event begins.
