Check our unique prestigious handmade Wedding tallit, Chuppah tallit designs.

Galilee Silks is a great choice, each is handmade in Israel by artisans that have been doing this for generations, not china factory made. You get actual wool or silk, genuine stitching, and a garment made to withstand decades. Orders ship globally, so wherever you’re tying the knot, getting one really is no-brainer.

A wedding tallit is selected to also serve as a chuppah covering or wrap, so it’s usually bigger and more ornate than a normal one. A standard tallit is for davening on regular days or on Shabbat. While there’s overlap in style, wedding sets typically indulge in heavier fabrics and more emblematic embellishments for the day.

Yes, that's really the whole point of anIsraeli wedding tallit. It's draped over couples for the canopy for the ceremony, and then back into the plain old prayer shawl for Sabbath and holidays for the next however many years. Nothing is solely decorative.

Sizes will generally range from the prayer shawl size, which is roughly 20 by 72 inches to the tallit gadol, which is roughly 55 by 72 inches, including an in-between size. A custom measurement is usually obtainable which will be a size appropriate for the groom or a size stretched by four poles overhead. 

Online is perfect for this type of purchase, trusted Israeli designers ship everywhere, and product pages often display actual size and fabric information, so there aren’t many shocks. Purchasing online also unlocks custom embroidery options at checkout, which isn’t always the case when shopping at a local store with a limited wedding-focused inventory on site.

Most designs have a few color options baked in already, and custom requests are typically easily handled by reaching out directly to the shop ahead of time, particularly for larger or more complex pieces. So its certainly worth shooting a note beforehand rather than assuming that a particular shade combo is just automatically available on any old style in the catalog.

Hand-made, from start to finish that's really the whole selling point of buying from a dedicated Israeli workshop like us. Weaving, hand-painting where it applies, and finishing touches are all done by artisans rather than assembly lines, which is a big part of why these pieces read as heirloom quality instead of mass-market goods.
