Yes! Make sure you have permission from the copyright holder and that your text is in an accessible format that will not require retyping. You can add it in the special instructions area of of the text form or send it in an email to ginny@ketubah-arts.com. (Helpful hint: don’t pay to have your names and dates added as it is included in the ketubah price).

Yes, all ketubot from Ketubah Arts are customized with your names, wedding date, and location. This is included in the price. Some websites list this as a separate fee, often under “Fill In Names & Dates” or “Personalization.” I’ve included it by default for years, since almost everyone needs it — and most rabbis strongly prefer it.

Traditionally, ketubot were written with blanks and filled in by hand right before the ceremony. Today, most couples (and rabbis) prefer a polished, typeset version that looks complete and professional. Each ketubah I make is printed on demand with your customized details already in place — no handwriting needed.

Please click on the ketubah design you are interested in. All of the information you are looking for is on the individual product pages. You can see prices for your chosen material and size by selecting them.

The best and fastest way to reach me is by email. I check email frequently and usually the longest you will have to wait is a couple of hours. Email allows me to thoughtfully and completely answer your question and keep track of order details even before you place the order.

This service is entirely provided by email. You will need an email address that is regularly checked to receive proofs and to communicate with me about all of the details.

If you're undecided, mounted paper is an easy, reliable choice: it’s sturdy, lies flat, displays easily on an easel, and is the simplest to sign. The print quality is stunning. Some people are confused by the foam mounting board that is mounted to the back of the archival paper, but most people are very happy with it.

Canvas (whether rolled or stretched) has a more textured surface. Many clients love the look, especially with floating frames. That said, it’s not for everyone. Some find signing on canvas a little trickier, especially if the background is dark or the pen isn't right.

If you're considering rolled canvas, keep in mind that it feels more like a flexible art material than traditional paper and it can surprise some people. It’s stunning when framed properly, but not the best option if you’re unsure what to expect.

2-4 weeks is a realistic estimate, but it requires prompt responses from clients and rabbis to the proofs. Proofs are usually ready in 1-3 business days and revisions are usually available next business day. For a ketubah to arrive in 2 weeks, only Rolled Canvas can be printed and shipped in time.

If a couple is really on top of proofreading, orders Rolled Canvas, has an officiant who is on top of proofreading, and chooses expedited shipping, it is possible to get a ketubah in 3-5 days, but not guaranteed.

It is possible to draw the process out for months waiting for your mother to get back to you with your Hebrew name, your rabbi to review the text, and proofs sitting in spam folders. So the time estimate really depends on how on top of things you are.

Not without my permission. In some instances, you can purchase a clip-art package of art from your ketubah. Please do not use art without my permission! My art work takes a huge amount of time and effort and no one likes to work for free. Using art without permission is theft.

No, but I can refer you to some translators who others have used with good results.

Every ketubah I make is customized with your names, wedding date, and location, and in some cases, wording changes or added quotes. Signature line customization is also part of the standard service.

If you’re looking for full customization of the artwork or text beyond what’s offered on the site, I occasionally take on fully custom commissions, but most clients find what they need in my existing collection. My options are very flexible and I frequently take “off the menu” requests.

If you’re not sure whether you need a customized ketubah or a fully custom one, feel free to ask. I’m happy to walk you through the options.

Yes - I welcome both small edits and fully custom texts. Many couples start with one of my standard texts and want to make a few changes to fit their needs. Others write something completely new. Either way is fine, and there’s no extra charge.

If you’re starting with a standard text but want to adjust a phrase or line, just select that standard text on the order form and include your edits in the “special instructions” box. I’ll make sure your version still works ritually and stylistically, and I’ll flag anything that might be a problem for your rabbi — especially if you’re working with an Orthodox or Conservative officiant, since they follow strict guidelines. If anything’s unclear, I’ll check with you. And don’t worry - you’ll have a chance to make changes after seeing the draft.

Yes — enthusiastically. I’ve created ketubot with text in English, Hebrew, and a wide range of additional languages, including Yiddish, Spanish, Mandarin, Greek, Romanian, German, and Uzbek. If you provide the translation, I’ll format and integrate it with care.

In most cases, it works beautifully. Some designs are more flexible than others when it comes to fitting three full texts, and not all fonts support every accent mark or character set. If needed, I recommend alternate fonts that will preserve readability and balance.

You’re also welcome to add multilingual elements selectively, for example, keeping the full text in English and featuring quotes or headings in Hebrew and your third language or creating a fully trilingual ketubah with everything in three languages.

If you’re considering a specific design or layout, I’m happy to talk through how it would work with your languages.

Absolutely. Many of my clients come from interfaith families or are in interfaith partnerships. Whether you're looking for inclusive wording, shared spiritual language, or a ketubah that acknowledges both traditions, I’m happy to help shape the text so it reflects who you are - with no extra charge. You're welcome to adapt any of my texts, and I’ll let you know if anything may raise concerns with your officiant.

Yes. All of my proprietary texts can be adapted to use language like “partners,” “couple,” or any other terms that feel right for you, whether that is because you are a lgbtq+ couple or because the words just don’t feel right. I regularly customize name lines, grammar, and structure to fit how people actually see themselves - not outdated categories. Just let me know your preferences when you fill out the text form.

Yes - with care and respect. I’ll use your names, pronouns, and honorifics exactly as you request. If the standard wording doesn’t work for you, feel free to order “off the menu.” If you want Hebrew versions that reflect your gender identity (or avoid gender altogether), I can offer flexible options, including help with transliteration and parent names. You deserve to be celebrated for who you are on your special day - not made to conform to a system that was never built for you.
