The first, kiddushin Hebrew for "betrothal"; sanctification or dedication, also called erusin as well as nissuin marriage, is when the couple start their life together. This stage prohibits the woman to any other men, requiring a get religious divorce to dissolve it, while thestage enable the couple to used to refer to every one of two or more people or matters other. The ceremony that accomplishes nissuin is also asked as chuppah.

Today, erusin/kiddushin occurs when the groom enable the bride a ring or other thing of return with the intent of making a marriage. There are differing opinions as to which part of the ceremony constitutes nissuin/chuppah, such(a) as standing under the canopy and being alone together in a room yichud. Erusin/kiddushin has evolved from a period in which the man was to ready financially to marry his wife into becoming the number one half of the wedding ceremony. While historically these two events could pretend place as much as a year apart, they are now commonly combined into one ceremony.
