Step 1

Ketubah Content

(click for Lightbox view)

This page shows all of the information needed to prepare your ketubah presented in color-coded blocks so that you can find the information on the following pages at a glance.
This page shows the prepared ketubah text with all of the color-coded customizable text. Even clients with minimal Hebrew knowledge can easily find their names and dates with the help of the color coding.
This page displays the English text with all of the color coded customizable information to make proof-reading your text as easy as possible.

Check your Hebrew Date:

HebCal.com

Gregorian Date = Secular Calendar Date
make sure to check box if after sunset.

Please note that if you selected Saturday Evening as your day (vs. Saturday (during day)), the date used is the customary “after sunset” date rather than precise date according to sunset and the Hebrew calendar to avoid listing your wedding as happening during Shabbat.

Hebrew speakers with questions about how the date is worded in Hebrew should start with this:

Step 3

Size Recommendations

  • Review the scale mockup to see overall size

  • Check artist recommendation about your size

  • Print SIZE PROOF to check actual font & signature lines (click button for printable page)

SIZE PROOF

Your size has been reviewed - your text, design, and material size combination means that your fonts or signature lines are on the large side.

Make sure to print the size proof below to make sure you’re ok with your size. If you’re happy, then it’s all good! If you would like to go smaller, you can get a refund for the difference in price and change your order.

If you would prefer to keep the 24×30 inch size, but want the text smaller or other adjustments, just let me know.

Step 4

Changes

Revisions are typically ready next business day but may be a little longer if the request is complex or during high volume times.

This form is for your convenience, you can fill it out to request changes as many times as needed or ask questions (it goes straight to Ginny, the artist).

Signing Your Ketubah On Paper

You can sign your ketubah with any pen, but for best long term results, I recommend archival (permanent and acid free) art pens.

Black

Other Colors

Special For Dark Backgrounds (or for more variety in color)

Signing Your Ketubah On Canvas

For best results, I recommend signing your ketubah with sharpie markers (any weight, any color).

If you aren’t sure which weight this variety pack will help.
