Included in the package are:
4 driftwood legs 84" - 86" in length. diameter may vary from 2" to 6"
4 driftwood poles 78" - 86" in length. diameter may vary from 2" to 4".
8 driftwood support pieces that connect the end of each pole to each leg.
16 wood screws of various lengths.
8 5/8" bolts
16 5/8" washers
8 5/8" wing nuts
Illustrated Assembly Instructions included

The wood screws connect the 8 braces to the cross supports and the uprights.
The bolts connect the 4 cross supports to the 4 uprights.
All of the wood screws are left inserted in the driftwood. All of the connections are pre drilled and numbered for ease in assembly.
Tools required: a power drill with a number 2 philips bit. 1/8" x 6" bit is optional but recommended.

Stake Kit Option:
Either the two or four stake kit is recommended for windy conditions especially if there will be a canopy attached to the top, if the chuppah will be setup on uneven terrain and/or for placing in a permanent location.

The stake kit aids in assembling the chuppah by providing support for the uprights. otherwise each upright needs to be held by someone or tied to something sturdy (step ladder, hand cart, saw horse, garbage can, etc.) that will support it during the assembly process. The chuppah will not stand on its own until all the cross supports and braces are attached.

Each stake is .5" in diameter and 30" in length. the bottom of the each upright to be staked is modified by drilling a .75" hole 12" deep lined with steel tubing. The stakes are placed 75" apart and driven into the ground leaving 12" exposed above the surface. The bottom of the modified upright slides over the top of the stake securing it to the ground.
The upright is now self standing and the stake is hidden from view.

The two stake kit provides support for the two front uprights. The back two uprights will still need to be supported during assembly.

The four stake kit provides support for all four uprights. Assembly can be accomplished by one person much easier.

Tools required: a hammer preferably a two + pound sledge hammer

All Bolt Option:
For wedding planners who plan on using the chuppah at various venues the all bolt upgrade is recommend. The upgrade replaces the 16 wood screws used to attach the braces with 16 5/16" bolts, 32 5/16" washers and 16 5/16" wing nuts.

The bolt option increases the longevity of the driftwood compared to using wood screws which have a tendency to tear up the wood every time the chuppah is setup and taken down.

The option eliminates the need for a power drill and #2 philips bit. Tools required: none however a 5/16" socket wrench is recommended
