ketubah

[slg47]

Where did you get your ketubah? I am thinking of making my own (I found a DIY ketubah site) mostly because I don't like most of the designs that I see online (and they are $$$)

Pictures welcome!

Hi, slg!

We commissioned our ketubah from Izzy Pludwinski:

My sister commissioned her ketubah from Jerise on etsy:

I love them both! The idea of making your own is pretty intriguing, though. What were you thinking of doing?

I found a DIY Ketubah website...but I have no idea what we would do FI was raised Jewish but is non-practicing and I was raised Catholic and am non-practicing. I think it would be cool to make our own...obviously we would want it to be really nice though and not just print something on standard copy paper! We would like to have a modern, all-English non-denominational ketubah.

slg, we signed a non-denominational marriage contract during our ceremony because neither FI nor I are Jewish, but I love the idea of the ketubah and the meaning behind it.

Ours was inspired by Modern Ketubah and GeeZees, an etsy vendor.

We used one of our engagement pictures and a friend added the text via photoshop, and it's proudly hanging in our living room and it is everything I had hoped for! Hope this helps!

I love both of the Haven. We're not Jewish, but just looking at those from Jerise makes me wish we'd done a wedding certificate. Our Marriage license isn't the most attractive thing. And it's in the bank.

It's not too late, Gypsy! We bought a beautiful new ketubah for my parent's 25th wedding anniversary and they had a little ceremony and signed it and everything.

I love my sister's ketubah, it's really stunning. Jerise on etsy does amazing work.

We both LOVE THIS-ONE but I haven't decided if we'll order through judaism.com or directly from the artist.
