What happens in a Jewish wedding?

Answer 1

In a synagogue,

Actually a Jewish wedding does not have to take place in a synagogue, the wedding can be in a fancy hall or a simple garden... -as long as the proper Hebrew documents are present (ketubah etc) and the Rabbi is present and there is a chuppah (a covering with 4 corners) then the couple is good to go.

Answer 2

They do the same as the christian Wedding but they stand under a canabu, they stand on glass, sing Hebrew songs.

As you should know they marry on a Tuesday because in the book Genesis it explanes its a good day to get married. They also have to sign a peice of paper to actually get married.

After the wedding they sit on chairs and go up in the air and people move then about and everything.

Another thing is, is that they put the marriage ring on the index finger

Answer 3

Before the ceremony gets underway, the two families meet and agree upon tenaim (what their respective financial support to the couple will be). This may take place at any time before the wedding.
Just prior to the chuppah, the groom, led by his father and father-in-law, approaches the bride and places a veil upon her which will remain during the chuppah. This is based on a tradition from Jacob.
The wedding itself has four parts. The first two parts are under the Chuppah (wedding canopy).
The first part of the wedding: under the chuppah, the groom gives an item of value (customarily a gold ring) to the bride; and, in Hebrew, declares his intention to marry her (see Tosafot commentary, to Talmud Ketubot 3a). Then a blessing is said (Talmud, Ketubot 7b).
Technically, this actually constitutes the binding stage of the engagement, and in ancient times was usually done separately from the wedding ceremony.
Between the first and second parts of the wedding, the Rabbi customarily reads aloud the ketubah (marriage contract).
The second part of the wedding: the seven wedding-blessings (see Talmud, Ketubot 8a) are sung over a cup of wine, and the bride and groom take a drink from the cup. Then a glass or plate is broken, to symbolize that even in this happy time, we remain aware of the Destruction of the Temple (Tosafot commentary, on Talmud Berakhot 31a).
The third part of the wedding: the bride and groom retire in privacy for several minutes to a room. This constitutes a symbolic consummation and finalizes the formal portion of the marriage. During this seclusion they break the fast which they observed on their wedding day.
The fourth part of the wedding: the couple then enter the adjacent wedding hall, and the festive meal is served to the assembled guests amid a lot of music and dancing (see Talmud, Ketubot 17a).

Answer 4

Some ceremonies, such as communal prayers and Torah-readings, are in the synagogue. Others (such as a celebratory kiddush or the Huppah ceremony) are often in synagogue but don't have to be. They are sometimes held at home or in a public hall.

Today, wedding festivities are usually held in wedding halls, but in olden times they were sometimes held in the home or the town square.
