btw, since I was asked:

Birch Poles from Natures All (HIGHLY recommended - you get 4 matched poles and the customer service is phenomenal)

Umbrella Stands from Target (I think we got ours on sale because they cost 20% less and were free shipping)

Fabric was all purchased on sale from JoAnns (40% off coupons are great - one cut of fabric is one item) or from ebay

Love it!

OMG I LOVE THIS!

this is amazing.  you should make them and sell them!!!!

Very nice. I had actually thought of doing something similar for my outdoor ceremony. Do you have to be jewish to use a chuppah?

Nope, you don't have to be Jewish to have a chuppah in your ceremony to my knowledge. It's more that if you are Jewish your Rabbi will mroe than likely insist on one. :)

beautiful!
