After you have narrowed down your selections of artwork you should read the accompanying text. Interfaith texts are widely available. In most cases the text is in English with a Hebrew heading which contains the Hebrew date, the place of the marriage and your names. In some instances there is a complete Hebrew translation. If the ketubah is to commemorate an anniversary you have the option of selecting a design which is available in an Anniversary text or to use a text similar to the one on the original ketubah.
Many artists offer their ketubot with a blank text area to accommodate a custom text.
If you would like your Ketubah to be personalized you will generally receive it in 3-6 weeks from the time we receive your accurate and complete ketubah information. Rush situations can almost always be accommodated at an additional charge for personalization and shipping. Originals , which are done completely by hand, require more time, ranging from 4-8 weeks up to 6 months depending on the season and the artist's availability. The Jewish calendar date changes after sundown. If your ceremony takes place after sundown on Sunday the Hebrew date will actually be Monday.
