Top your noggin with a wilder-style yarmulke

At a Glance

Yarmulkes (or kippahs) are caps worn on the head, typically by those of Jewish faith. For those able to wear something a little more daring, I present these alternative (and sometimes out there) yarmulkes for our offbeat Jewish weddings.

Yarmulkes (or kippahs) are caps worn on the head, typically by those of Jewish faith. We have seen these many times in our real weddings, but I wanted to share a few interesting yarmulkes I found while digging around the internet. For those able to wear something a little more daring, I present these alternative (and sometimes out there) yarmulkes for your offbeat Jewish wedding.

A rainbow yarmulke would be pretty awesome for a Jewish/LGBT wedding. 

 

pokeball yarmulke
Everyone will know you’ve got Pokémon on the brain when a Poké Ball is keeping it stored up.

 

This swirl style will either hypnotize your guests or make them think of candy. Either way is a win in my book. You are getting sleepy…
