12 videos about Jewish wedding traditions: bimbam.com/judaism-101/jewish-weddings
In Jewish weddings it is customary for the couple to break a glass. For this video, we asked the Jewish community for their advice on what type of glass to smash at a wedding and even how to smash it. So, we took some of their advice and actually smashed a bunch of different items, a bunch of different ways.
This decision, about what type of glass to smash, will be entirely up to you but hopefully we've given you some choices for your wedding. Mazel Tov!
