Seven Blessings for Two Female Identified Partners By Rabbi Jaimee Shalhevet and Rabbi Helayne Shalhevet

Wedding Blessings for Two Female Identified Partners
By Rabbi Jaimee Shalhevet and Rabbi Helayne Shalhevet

In this version of the sheva brakhot, the blessings have been adapted for a lesbian wedding.
Blessed are You Eternal our God Ruler of the universe, Creator of the fruit of the vine.

Blessed are You Eternal our God Ruler of the universe, Who created everything for God’s glory.

Blessed are You Eternal our God Ruler of the universe, Creator of humans.

Blessed are You Eternal our God Ruler of the universe, Who created humans in God’s image, in the image of the likeness You formed humans, and prepared for humans from Godself a building forever.  Blessed are You God, Creator of humans.

Give great joy and rejoicing to the barren woman in the gathering of her children in her midst with joy.  Blessed are You God, Who makes Zion happy through her children.

Make greatly happy loving friends like You made Your creation happy in the Garden of Eden previously.  Blessed are You God, who makes happy bride and bride.

Blessed are You Eternal our God Ruler of the Universe, Who created joy and happiness, bride and bride, rejoicing, song, cheer and delight, love and peoplehood and peace and friendship.  Speedily Eternal our God make heard in the cities of Judah and in the courtyards of Jerusalem a voice of joy and a voice of happiness, a voice of bride and a voice of bride, voice of exultation of brides from their chuppot and youths from their feasts of melody.  Blessed are You God Who makes the bride happy with the bride.
