# Some Ashkenazim have the minhag to place ashes on the forehead of the chatan at the time of the chupah. Sephardim don’t have this minhag today.<ref> The Shulchan Aruch OC 560:2 and EH 65:3 writes that there is a minhag to place ashes on the forehead of the chatan to actively demonstrate how we remember the destruction of the Bet Hamikdash even as we rejoice at a wedding. While the Biur Halacha 560:2 s.v. vechen asks why this isn’t the minhag today, the Nitai Gavriel (Nesuin v. 1 p. 117) writes that many have the minhag today. The Kaf Hachaim 560:21 writes that this isn’t the Sephardic minhag today. Nesuin Khalacha 6:19 and Yalkut Yosef (Sovah Semachot 1:6:6) agree.</ref>

On the other hand, Chacham Ben Tzion Abba Shaul (Ohr Letzion vol. 3 pg. 277) also notes that the practice seems to be not to place ashes but he wonders how they can disregard this custom, which has sources in the Gemara and the Shulchan Aruch. He therefore rules that even sepharadim should participate in this custom.</ref>
