Is it considered sacrilegious to paint a picture of the chuppah in one's future wedding before the actual ceremony? Therefore, can the artist portray his/her upcoming wedding scene without the chuppah?

2Hello Sarah! Welcome to Mi Yodeya. Thanks for bringing your question here. Do you mind explaining why exactly you think this might be considered sacrilegious? – Daniel Apr 18 '13 at 4:59

P.S. you don't happen to be Noah Winkler's sister Sarah, do you? – Daniel Apr 18 '13 at 5:08
It's not considered a sacrilege to paint a picture of the chupa in one's future wedding. Nor to paint the wedding scene without the chupa. Source: I've been around a little and have never heard of such a thing; and Nit'e Gavriel and Taame Haminhagim don't mention it AFAICT.

1I could see it as a little weird or tacky - "here's what I think my wedding will look like when I meet Mister Right" -- and when the right time comes, G-d willing, please realize that things don't always play out as you'd fantasized they would; but no there's no law or custom against drawing weddings! – Shalom Apr 18 '13 at 13:45

@yehuda, this answer? I agree it's not the best answer, and I might well not have upvoted it if another posted it, but I would certainly have "let this one pass". What's wrong with it? – msh210♦ Apr 18 '13 at 14:30

@msh210 I would have been downvoted for no source! No worries, just pointing it out! – Yehuda Apr 18 '13 at 22:00
