Chuppa: Wedding ring
The inside of the ring is engraved with the well-known congratulatory phrase “Mazel tov!”. A Jewish wedding usually does not involve an exchange of rings; instead, only the groom places the ring on the bride’s finger. In liberal streams, on the other hand, bridal pairs typically exchange rings.
liberal
Liberal A Jewish confession (religious persuasion, a sub-group within a religion) that originated in Germany in the 19th century and represents a modernisation of traditional religious practice and principles. Opposite: orthodox (strongly religious, devout) - a stream of Judaism that strictly observes all regulations and commandments of the Jewish religious laws.
