About the Process
Because it is hand-painted, the new couple completes a questionnaire describing their story in order to create a custom Ketubah specific to their union.
The artist prepares several sketches for review, and the couple chooses a final design.
After the design selection is completed, the text is selected, and the Ketubah is underway.
The entire process requires 3 - 4 months to plan, design and execute. We advise clients to plan ahead for the Ketubah to be ready for the final day.
