Jewish Newlyweds - Ketubah after wedding?

We didn't have a fancy katubah, but now I kind of want one. Is it weird to order one after the wedding and just sign it ourselves or is there something similar that we can get?

even though a ketubah, the jewish wedding contract, isnt legally binding anymore and is more symbolic and ceremonial today, and is seen like a piece of art, it's significance shouldn't be whittled down to only being a piece of artwork.

IMPO (in my professional opinion--i am a Cantor), I would wait until your anniversary and have a special ceremony with your Rabbi or Cantor and have your witnesses and your clergy be there to sign it.
