👉 In Jewish tradition, a chuppah (also known as a "chupah" or "kushah") is a small structure used to separate two people during a wedding ceremony. The chuppah can be made of wood, stone, or metal and is typically placed in the middle of the two sides of a synagogue. It serves as a barrier between the two Jewish families who are married together, ensuring that any potential misunderstandings or conflicts do not arise.
