Weddings

Your wedding is a day you will remember for your whole lives! We would be thrilled to be part of your special day and help you celebrate your simcha at Beth Tzedec.

For information on booking your wedding here, reach out to Karen Goldstein at KGoldstein@beth-tzedec.org or call 416-781-3514 ext. 213

Venue

Wedding ceremonies may take place in the Sanctuary or the Hendeles Chapel. Our Chapel holds approximately 200 seats, while the Sanctuary space can seat over 1500. We offer beautiful facilities including a 3500 sq ft. lobby, a 3500 sq. ft. Mezzanine Hall, a 5000 sq. ft. Banquet Hall, and more options, accommodating weddings of all sizes. 

You may use the Beth Tzedec chuppah (wedding canopy) or provide an alternative chuppah. If your chuppah will require any setting up, please plan arrangements with Karen Goldstein.

Clergy

A member of the Beth Tzedec clergy may serve as m’sader(et) kedushin (the officiant) at your wedding, or you may have another rabbi or cantor officiate or co-officiate. 

Rabbi Steven C. Wernick joined the Beth Tzedec community in February 2019, where his tenure as Senior Rabbi has been marked by a renewed focus on inspiring and enabling members of our community to live meaningful Jewish lives.

Rabbi Robyn Fryer Bodzin has been delighted to be serving Beth Tzedec since August 2019. She directs our Centre for Spiritual Well-Being and is rabbi of the Little Minyan.

Cantor Sidney Ezer helps lead your service to make it musical and personal. He shares the beauty of various Jewish musical traditions and is able to chant Torah in the East European Ashkenazic, West European Ashkenazic, Baghdadi, Moroccan, Yerushalmi, Spanish Portuguese, and Italian Sephardic traditions.

As spring approaches, we look forward to celebrating the many rey’im ahuvim, loving partnerships, that will flourish under the chuppah in the months ahead, including those of the LGBTQ+ community.

We can also accommodate off-site weddings if that is your preference. 

Reception and Catering

Our exclusive in-house caterer, Apex Kosher Catering, is here to provide you with exquisite, gourmet food, table decor and other aspects of your celebration to take it to another level. 

A booking with the clergy or the caterer does not guarantee reception space at the Synagogue. Please contact Karen Goldstein to book and arrange details for your reception.
