ed by the attendants, is escorted to the
altar The party marches about the
groom who stands beneath canopy,
and then the bride joins him and the
nuptlals are read. All the ceremonies
are performed beneath blue and white

canopy, being of the colors Of the sky,
symbollzes peace throughout the cou-
Pies married life. As the ceremony
ls concluded the bride and groom drink
from the same glass Of wine which is
then trodden underfoot and they are
pronounced man and wife.
