The Processional

Processional - Here we come!!! After a few moments of silence, the music will begin and the guests (that’s you) will turn and notice the entourage proceeding the bride and groom. This is an ancient custom, seen earlier in the Kabbalat Panim, where the couple continues to be treated as king and queen, and are escorted to the Chuppah by friends and family.
The participants include:

Rabbi Benny Zippel and Cantor Lawrence Loeb
Cantor Loeb has been a close friend of the Prottas family for many years and Rabbi Zippel has become a valuable resource and friend to the Prottas’ in recent years.
