Preparing for the Wedding

Together with all the planning and preparations for the wedding, both members of the couple should set aside time to learn the important and complex laws of niddah, which will now become relevant to them.


As the wedding approaches, the bride puts these laws into practice. She performs a hefsek taharah, counts seven blood-free days, and immerses in the mikveh.


This section addresses the halachic preparations for the wedding and the bride's initial immersion in the mikveh.
