Talking Ketubahs with Advah Designs

October 13, 2015

This past summer, I had the tremendous delight of becoming acquainted with Advah Designs, and it’s founder Sarah Resnick. If you’re in the market for a Chuppah or Tallit, then look no further than her beautiful textile shop. Not only is she an incredibly talented artist, she’s also just a fantastic human being! After spending a lovely afternoon chatting on skype, Sarah asked if she could post an interview about me and my work on her blog. Color me flattered!

So, pop on over to the Advah Designs blog to learn more about:

  • How I created my first ketubah (and what went wrong!)
  • How one ketubah quickly transformed into my full-time job (and my passion)
  • My relationships with Judaism and Quakerism
  • A sneak peek into a typical day in the life of a ketubah artist (there’s a lot more coffee and dog-snuggling than you might expect)
  • My most important advice for couples looking for the perfect ketubah
  • And more

Read the full interview here.

A huge thank you to Sarah from Advah Designs for hosting me on her little corner of the internet!

Have you met ‘A Practical Wedding’? (+ a promo code!)

When I was newly engaged in 2013, my mom heard a story on NPR about a little community called “A Practical Wedding” and immediately bought me the book. The day it arrived, I read the whole thing cover-to-cover. And if you’re newly engaged, I strongly suggest you do the same 🙂 This book, and the corresponding blog, had an enormous amount of influence on the decisions I made while we were planning our wedding. Unlike so much wedding advice out there, this book taught me to let go of the parts of the wedding that didn’t feel as meaningful, while focusing on the parts that resonated with us deeply.

Now, nearly 2 years after we got hitched, I still check their site almost daily, both because their advice extends to life beyond the wedding and because…well…I’m addicted. It’s such an incredible place.

That’s why I’m pleased as punch to be featured on the APW blog today! I hope you’ll stop on by and get to know them if you haven’t done so already. And to celebrate, you may even find a little coupon code to sweeten the deal.

A big thanks to the A Practical Wedding team for the blog feature and for the countless ways in which you supported me during the wedding planning process!
