Re: ketubah

Eichlers has ketubahs.

You also need two witneses (who aren't related to you- I think).

Depending on your denomination, (conservative - at least my rabbi - and orthodox) two Jewish men, not related to you, sign. In reform anyone can sign, I don't know if they even have to be Jewish.

Re: ketubah

I just ordered mine from ketubah.com
The site is great and I called customer service to ask a question, they were very nice. My ketubah should be in in about 4 weeks.

Re: ketubah

We got ours at Eichlers and also looked at The Zion Lion in New Hyde Park. According to my Rabbi, who is very traditional, you need at least one other observant Jewish male, besides the rabbi, to sign it. There is space for 2 men, but he said most couples have enough trouble finding one observant male!

Re: ketubah

I was told that you need 2 male witnesses who are not related to you or your FH. Check with your rabbi though...I think that it could depend on the temple/rabbi.

Re: ketubah

2 male witnesses to write in it or sign it??
just wanted to make sure i could use it - not only is it pretty, it saves me more $$!!

Re: ketubah

We got ours at Yussels in Merrick and I believe they have a website too www.yusselsplace.com

A man and a woman witness have to sign.

Re: ketubah

We got ours at Yussel's also. They are in Merrick on Merrick Ave. They recommneded someone to us as a scribe to fill in the necessary words in hebrew. ( Hebrew names etc) . We then bought ours to be matted and then after the wedding we bought it back to get it framed. The place is in baldwin that did the framing. It is called Stu Art. They were great to work with. Our rabbi had us have 2 males that were jewish and not first blood related to sign and witness our Kettubah. ( We choose my BIL and his Best friend from college.)
