A few weeks ago, I was quite excited to get a call from a reporter at the Jewish News Service wanting to talk about ketubahs (one of my all-time favorite topics). It turns out he was writing an article about the recent trends in ketubot that are shifting this wedding ritual from legal document to elaborate artwork. I was happy to give him my two cents!
In addition to speaking with me, reporter Jacob Kamaras also spoke with three other ketubah artists whose work I greatly admire: Morgan Friedman, Danny Azoulay and Nishima Kaplan.
The article was recently published, and it’s a great read if you’re interested in both the roots of this wedding tradition and where it’s headed next.

Nothing makes a wedding more special than those little personal touches. That sweet toast given by your best friend since 7th grade, a chuppah which includes a piece of antique lace handed down from a great grandmother, those funky centerpieces that your whole wedding party helped to construct the morning of your big day – you know what I mean.
Now you can also add your ketubah to that list of pre-wedding DIY projects! We’ve been approached by many couples over the past year who were seeking our help putting together an accurately translated, beautifully laid out ketubah text so that a special artist in their life could then do the surrounding artwork. But it’s not that easy to find a “text only ketubah”, particularly one where the text is already filled out with your personal details. Well, we’re more than happy to help!
Introducing the Text Only Ketubah
You can now purchase your very own Text Only Ketubah from Ink with Intent. This ketubah comes a dedicated graphic designer and with all the same personalization options as any of our other designs. That means you get to select the texts, the fonts, whether your names and wedding date are added as a headline, the number of signature lines, and much more. You even get to choose the size of the paper and the shape of the text. And because each Text Only Ketubah is created just for you by a graphic designer, we can accomodate any request you might have. Want the text smaller so there’s more space for artwork? No problem. Want the text midnight blue instead of black? We have you covered!
We couldn’t be more excited to bring you the Text Only Ketubah. It’s a wonderful option for DIY-ers, minimalists, and those lucky enough to have an artist in their inner circle!
