This text is special in that it allows each person to write their own ketubah promises, to be revealed at the ketubah signing. The proofs will be sent individually with the other person’s section blocked out. Primarily intended for interfaith couples, but may be combined with any other traditional text as long as you’ve cleared it with your rabbi.

The opening is optional because this text may be used in designs with two sides, such as the Braided Cherry Trees design, where the opening and closing might not work, instead each person would sign underneath “With these signatures…” and the date would be included there.

If used in a ketubah without two sides, the opening will go across the top and each person’s custom section will be a separate, side by side, column.
