The ketubah is a beautiful and meaningful part of a wedding ceremony. It is an illustrated document, signed by the bride and groom, which declares their commitment and love. Originally part of the Jewish wedding tradition, its beauty is now embraced by couples from all different backgrounds. In a Jewish wedding ceremony, it is the official contract between bride and groom, whose marriage officially starts the moment it is signed. But at its heart, the ketubah is a personal document between the bride and groom, a work of art hung in the home that serves as a daily reminder of the vows they have made to each other. |
