Wedding
Celebrate your wedding day at Beth El Temple. This joyous occasion can be held in our beautiful Sanctuary with decorative Judaica by renowned sculptor Ludwig Wolpert, or share a more intimate ceremony in our smaller, more modern chapel. Our attractive array of reception room options can be configured to ensure that yours is the wedding of your dreams. From the bridal room to the hand embroidered Chuppah (wedding canopy), we work with you to make every detail of your special event memorable.
Within our modern, climate controlled, Kosher facility we can accommodate intimate celebrations or large functions. Free on-site parking, handicapped accessibility, and our central location make Beth El Temple an ideal destination for your wedding ceremony and reception.
In keeping with the principles of Conservative Judaism, we embrace gay and lesbian Jews and support their right to marry.
It's not just about the wedding -- we are also happy to host an Aufruf (pre-wedding Torah honor) for the marrying couple. In the case where one partner is not Jewish, but the Jewish partner would like to mark this transition in his or her life, our rabbis will work with you to offer an appropriate blessing for this significant moment.
For more information, please contact our Executive Director at (860) 233-9696.
