    • It was mostly a Jewish wedding. Both Portman and Millepied were wrapped in tallits, and the ceremony took place under a rustic chuppah made of twigs. At the end of the ceremony, Millepied, who is not Jewish, smashed the glass and everyone yelled, “Mazal Tov!”
    • But it also paid respect to Millepied’s French background. The desert was French macaroons and the guests received packets of wildflower seeds to take home, with “Merci” — thank you in French — inscribed on them.
    • It was really, really vegan. In addition to the French macaroons, which were vegan and came at the expense of the traditional wedding cake, the entire menu was strictly vegan (like Portman’s daily diet).
    • And it only lasted about 45 minutes. The wedding was reportedly designed by wedding planners Yifat Oren and Stefanie Cove (the former was also in charge of Drew Barrymore’s Jewish wedding).
