With New York City leading the majority of the world with the largest Jewish population, it is estimated that approximately 1,412,000 Jewish people live in the eight counties that compose New York, and over 350,000 in New Jersey, leaving the demand for traditional Jewish weddings as great as it has ever been.

For this reason many synagogues have added or remodeled their facilities to include lavish reception rooms with on site kosher catering.
Temple Beth Israel, in Springfield New Jersey boasts a newly redesigned ballroom and a synagogue which lends its beauty to any event captured there.
Abacus Wedding Studios is always grateful to be a part of so many rich cultures and traditions, that surround the New Jersey and New York tri-state area, and working with Temple Beth Israel on a traditional Jewish wedding is just another way for our studio to experience and learn about the vast variety of weddings and wedding traditions.
From the signing of the Ketubah (meaning; document or agreement) to the Hora (considered the national dance of Israel, originated in the Balkins and is a circle dance, where the bride and groom are lifted up on chairs.) to breaking of the glass, tradition and contemporary art is one of the amazing combinations offered by Temple Beth Israel and many other temps in the New Jersey New York metropolitan area.
