Event Spaces
A wedding in the Main Sanctuary of Congregation Shaar Hashomayim is an unforgettable experience. The architecture, décor, acoustics, and beautiful music make for a ceremony unlike any other. We offer many spaces to meet the vast needs of every couple. Couples may choose to hold their ceremony in the grandeur of our main sanctuary, the warmth and elegance of our daily chapel, or the intimacy of the Rabbi’s study.
Chapel
Discover the beauty and warmth of our daily chapel — an intimate, light-filled space perfect for weddings and other sacred moments. With its elegant design, serene ambiance, and natural light streaming through thoughtfully placed windows, the chapel creates a welcoming and spiritual atmosphere for couples beginning their journey together. Whether you’re planning a traditional ceremony or something uniquely your own, our chapel offers a meaningful setting in the heart of our synagogue community.

Music
The musical repertoire that we offer at Shaar Hashomayim is drawn from a wide selection of Jewish wedding music as well as Israeli and liturgical favourites. You will have the opportunity to choose from a large number of beautiful tracks.
As the guests gather for the ceremony, soft music is played to create a mood appropriate for a wedding. The Cantor normally begins the processional by walking down the aisle while singing. All those walking in the processional party are given their special moment in the aisle, accompanied by a unique piece of music.
