A Jewish ceremony wrapped in the timeless atmosphere of the Eternal City

Rome, with its timeless charm, provided the perfect setting for the wedding of Michele, an American bride, and Gabriele, who chose the Eternal City to celebrate their love with a beautiful Jewish ceremony.

Rich in symbolism and ancient traditions, the ceremony took place beneath the Chuppah, the traditional wedding canopy representing the couple’s new home together. Amid blessings, vows, and the traditional breaking of the glass, the ritual brought moments of deep emotion, blending spirituality with meanings passed down through generations.

Both the ceremony and reception took place at the Istituto Nazionale di Studi Romani, a venue of extraordinary charm, surrounded by ancient cloisters and panoramic gardens. At sunset, the view of St. Peter’s Dome and Rome’s rooftops provided a breathtaking backdrop to a day in which cultures, traditions, and love came together, creating unforgettable memories.
