Kertubah Question

I have a question for all the jewish brides.

here is a little background info. my FH is jewish and I am catholic. i am TOTALLY opposed to seeing him before i walk down the isle.

NOW, i understand that the ketubah has to be signed before the wedding.

can it be signed at the rehersal dinner or in front of all of our guests under the chuppah?

It's got to be signed before the ceremony. I would ask your rabbi, but I don't know of any that would do it the day before or even in front of everyone.

Talk to your rabbi (I assume you're having one).

yes, we have a rabbi and a priest.

this is tricky, because i dont want to see him before the ceremony. i will call him.. thanks!!

I had read in one of my books that you can sign it seperately. You each just need to have a witness there with you. Ask your rabbi AND your priest, because i am sure yours isnt the 1st that either of them has done and either one of them may have insight. Out of curiosity who are you using? We are using both too....

We didnt want to see each other first, however there are certain pictures that will be best taken in daylight and we are getting married sat night. we decided that way (alot to make us feel better about our decision but that we will then have the first time we see each other just between us and captured in picutures.

are you getting an interfaith ketubah? Where are you getting it?

seperately - FABULOUS!!

yeaaaaaaaaaaa

i am so excited.

my priest - who is the pastor at my church, he is wonderful and very cool.

Father Denniston
