This volume contains the set liturgy that is used in Jewish wedding ceremonies throughout the world, printed in both Hebrew and English. It describes the associated customs, such as the exchange of rings, the circling of the bride, the sharing of wine, the reading of the wedding contract and the breaking of a glass. There is description of the variations in wedding custom practised by the different Jewish communities around the world. An introduction explains the history, the theology and meaning of the wedding ceremony, and there are explanations through the text of the symbolism in the customs and the standard and variant liturgy. The text is illustrated with illuminated manuscripts and wedding contracts ('ketubbot') from the British Library
