BASHERT - A concept related to that of a "soulmate"; someone who is predestined, fated, or otherwise ideal; a "match made in heaven".
BLESSINGS - The Rabbi is often asked for blessings, such as blessings for the tsar, or for Motel's sewing machine. Brachot (blessings) for food are most common, but there are brachot for other things! there is even a bracha for seeing a rainbow!) The person saying the bracha will not say amen (pronounced a-meyn), but the listeners will (this is a bit of a faux-pas on the rabbi's part in the text!).
BREAKING A GLASS BY STEPPING ON IT - This video covers this custom. Or, if you prefer to read, an explanation: Originally, this wedding tradition was meant to serve as a reminder that while there should be joy and revelry over the marriage, there should also be remembrance of the losses of the Jewish people and acknowledgement that the world still needs healing. The glass also serves as a representation of the possible fragility of human relationships. Lastly, it serves to seal the covenant of marriage, as covenants in Judaism are made by breaking or cutting something.

DAILY PRAYERS- In addition to brachot (blessings) for food (and other things! there is even a bracha for seeing a rainbow!), there are traditionally three times of day for daily prayers. You can read about them here.
