FAQ — Frequently Asked Questions

Answers for couples, families, and gift-givers ordering a personalized Jewish wedding glass keepsake.

About The Keepsake

What to know before choosing Yemini for your wedding day.

What is Yemini?

Yemini is a personalized Jewish wedding keepsake designed to preserve the broken glass from beneath the chuppah and turn it into a lasting heirloom.

Is Yemini used during the wedding ceremony?

Yes. The ceremonial glass is placed inside the Yemini keepsake before the chuppah, broken during the ceremony, and preserved afterward for display.

What materials is Yemini made from?

Yemini is crafted from clear acrylic / Perspex. The container is 4mm thick and becomes doubled to 8mm when sealed after use beneath the chuppah.

Is the cup included?

Yes. The cup placed beneath the chuppah is included with Yemini. The exact cup style may vary slightly from the photos shown, but it is selected to fit beautifully inside the keepsake.

Can the acrylic container crack?

Because the glass is broken by stepping on it, gentle cracks may appear at pressure points depending on how pressure is applied. After the chuppah, the container locks shut and should not be reopened, as this may damage the seal.

We recommend keeping the keepsake upright and avoiding shaking it, so the broken glass stays elegant and glass dust is not released.
