This is the yichud, where bride and groom go to a small private room to spend some time alone. <BR/><BR/>Yichud (togetherness) corresponds to the third means of “acquiring a wife” – originally implying consummation, it has now become a symbolic aspect of the ceremony where the couple will be unaccompanied for the first time, making it important as a fulfilment of the contractual relationship.<BR/><BR/>Today, this is also the point where couples who have fasted through the day will break their fast, before rejoining their guests for the celebration.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
