Original post by randella

Ok.. I know there is a lot of stuff we need..

- something to post the ketubah on- to show the 'congregation'

- kiddish cup

- glass/napkin

What else? I know I am forgetting something.. Also, is there like a Jewish wedding kit somewhere- that would have all this stuff?? Or, do we just get everything separately at a Judaica shop or something??

I had heard about it- and then my bro and sis in law had in their house-- and it looked so cool.

I have also heard about people using the shards of glass to make mezzuzahs.

Ok I need help with this, where can I get a cool different katubah. We are you and are having a beach theme wedding so I was wondering what sites might have something different. Also where can I find yamukas? I haven't started looking for them but do they normally come in bulk for wedding??
Thanks!

ketubah.com, doa search..there are a lot of people who personally create them.

Anita Diamant's 'A New Jewish Wedding' has a lot of diffeent sets of wording and also suggestions on where to buy them (it's packed away in a box somewhere or I'd tell you)

nenna-

Here are some ketubah sites:

Ketubah.com (I got mine there)
ModernKetubah.com
Allthingsjewish.com

You can find more- just google ketubah.

I got my yarmulkes at yarmulke.com. They were $11.99/dozen.

My hall had the easel to display the ketubah. We had the ketubah mounted on foamboard at Michael's and then later got it framed there.

I think everyone else covered all of the paraphenalia...since I got married at a Jewish center, they supplied most of it.

One of our friends got us the shards mezzuzah as a wedding present. It has been waiting for us at Yussel's for weeks, but we haven't had a chance to pick it up, since we live in Queens and haven't been out on LI when it isn't Shabbat or a holiday.
