Daily Halacha - Laws of Even HaEzer, 23rd of Av 5777

Is it permissible to have a seclusion room (Yichud) at a wedding?

It is the Sephardic custom not to have a seclusion room, and Sephardim should not change this custom as it is considered improper.

Also, it should be noted that if a seclusion room is used, the bride must cover her head after leaving the room. If she does not cover her head, she would be like a married woman behaving immodestly without a head covering [Yabia Omer 5, 8].
