What Makes a Real Kosher Wedding Unforgettable

Hi, I’m Jacob Mizrachi, founder of Elegant Kosher Catering end Evants.

I’m Jacob Mizrachi, and I’ve had the honor of catering over 100 glatt kosher weddings across South Florida. Each one tells a story – of family, faith, and joy. The most inspiring weddings are never just “events.” They’re living expressions of heritage, hospitality, and heart.


A real kosher wedding in Miami blends spiritual tradition with modern aesthetics. You can have a beachfront ceremony under a chuppah, an elegant ballroom reception, and still remain fully kosher – without compromise.


At Elegant Kosher Catering, our goal is simple: create weddings that feel sacred, seamless, and stunning. To see full examples of how we make it happen, visit Wedding Catering

Jewish Wedding Traditions with a Modern Miami Touch


Every Jewish wedding begins with meaning – the ketubah, the chuppah, the blessings. But in Miami, tradition meets sunshine and contemporary design.


We’ve seen couples blend timeless rituals with new aesthetics: – Chuppah on a private villa terrace overlooking the ocean. – Klezmer band merging with live jazz during the reception. – Traditional hora followed by a sunset cocktail hour with pareve canapés. – Classic seven blessings under modern floral installations.


The beauty of a kosher wedding here is balance. You can honor halacha, bring in your style, and celebrate freely with loved ones – all while enjoying a menu crafted in our certified glatt kosher kitchen.


💬 “Tradition doesn’t limit creativity – it gives it structure. That’s what makes Jewish weddings so emotionally powerful.” – Jacob Mizrachi

Elegant Kosher Décor, Food & Flow That Guests Remember


Real Miami weddings stand out because of flow. Everything moves with intention – from the first look to the final toast.


Here’s how we design around that:

  1. Décor: Clean whites, natural tones, subtle gold. Miami light does the rest.

  2. Menu: Seasonal, refined, with small surprises – like a modern pareve dessert bar.

  3. Timing: Guests should never wait; courses should arrive like choreography.

  4. Comfort: Outdoor setups require cooling fans, shaded plating stations, and mindful logistics.

Real Examples of Luxury Kosher Weddings We’ve Catered


Over the years, our team has brought glatt kosher hospitality to some of Miami’s most beautiful spaces. Each wedding is unique, but the essence is the same – refined joy and cultural pride.

  • The Diplomat Beach Resort, Hollywood: 250 guests, ballroom ceremony, dual-menu service (meat & pareve). 

  • Private Villa, Golden Beach: 80 guests, beachfront chuppah, open-air kosher kitchen built on site. 

  • Temple Beth Sholom, Miami Beach: 200 guests, elegant floral décor, seated dinner service.

  • Faena Forum, Miami Beach: Luxury modern setting, art-inspired décor, contemporary kosher tasting menu.

Each celebration required meticulous planning – from refrigeration logistics to plating under supervision – but every moment felt effortless for the couple.

💬 “When you see grandparents dancing beside their grandchildren under the chuppah – that’s the heart of a kosher wedding.” – Jacob Mizrachi

Behind the Scenes: How We Plan Glatt Kosher Celebrations


Planning a kosher wedding means planning every detail twice – once for beauty, once for compliance.

Our process:

  1. Initial tasting with Jacob and our executive chef.

  2. Venue inspection for kosher-readiness.

  3. Menu design balancing flavor, weather, and logistics.

  4. Coordination with mashgiach and planner.

  5. Final event flow review one week before.

Each couple gets a dedicated coordinator to ensure communication between venue, rentals, and kitchen remains seamless. To explore how we design full kosher experiences from start to finish, visit Wedding Catering

Key Takeaways for Couples Planning Their Own Event

  1. Choose a venue that welcomes glatt kosher catering.

  2. Prioritize guest comfort – Miami weather affects timing and menu.

  3. Balance tradition and individuality.

  4. Keep ceremony and dining flow natural, not segmented.

  5. Trust professionals who understand kosher logistics.

💡 Pro tip: Always confirm how long your venue allows for kitchen setup and breakdown – it’s essential for glatt kosher events.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a wedding “glatt kosher”?

It means every ingredient, utensil, and preparation area follows the highest kosher supervision standards – no exceptions.

Can a modern Jewish wedding still include all traditions?

Yes. Many Miami couples mix contemporary style with timeless rituals – it’s about meaning, not format.

Do you work with non-religious or mixed-tradition couples?

Of course. We design every event to respect heritage while celebrating individuality.
