A BHLDN Bride for a DIY Jewish Wedding Weekend at River Mountain, Everett, Pennsylvania, USA
Ketubah
Our custom ketubah was beautifully designed and hand-painted by Elena Berlo with Once Upon a Paper. It includes humanistic text in English and Hebrew, with small changes by us to make it more personal. The art captures our love of nature, with two trees intertwined, from the roots to the branches, and two golden birds sitting amid colored circles representing the changing seasons. -Shoshana and Mark
We’re obsessed with Shoshana and Mark’s gorgeous outdoor ceremony, officiated by a humanistic rabbi and attended by no fewer than four family dogs! The bespoke ceremony blended Shoshana’s Jewish upbringing and Mark’s non-religious background and featured a blessing over wine and another over beer, egalitarian circling, and humanistic versions of the seven blessings. And how fun is it that the duo included a crossword puzzle on details and traditions from the ceremony in their wedding program?! Don’t miss all the special details in the wonderful photography by Mariah Fisher!
