Pre Jewish Ceremony Meeting with the Rabbi

When a bride and groom-to-be decide to have a Jewish wedding with a rabbi, they need to meet with the rabbi. This meeting will consist of the couple and the rabbi getting to know each other. It will also allow the rabbi to prepare the ceremony so that it reflects the couple on their wedding day

Additional Jewish Customs during the Jewish Wedding Ceremony
Some Rabbis will wrap together the bride and groom by a single tallit (prayer shawl) and offer a personal, private blessing including the priestly blessings for the wedding couple. The tallit represents the number 32, which is the number of fringes on the tallit shawl. The number 32 is the numerical value for heart in Hebrew.

For Weekday Jewish Weddings
Tuesday would be the “chosen day” of the week to have a Jewish wedding. Tuesday is the third day of creation, and in the Torah it is repeated twice: "and G-d saw how good it was".
