Since the middle ages, it has been traditional, in most Jewish communities, to perform the betrothal during the marriage ceremony itself; previously this was not the case, and there were often several months between the two events. In classical rabbinic literature betrothal is frequently referred to as sanctification (Hebrew:kiddushin), on account of the bride becoming sanctified (dedicated) to the groom.
