Question
How is the wedding canopy for a niddah conducted today, given that both the Rema, the Tur, and the Shulchan Aruch ruled that seclusion suitable for intimacy is required, and why is there no concern for blessings in vain?
Answer
Shalom u'vracha
According to Halacha, the wedding canopy is valid.
See Shulchan Aruch, Even HaEzer, Siman 61, Seif 2, and these are his words:
It is proper that she should not marry until she is purified. However, the custom now is not to be strict, and they do not wait.
