All of my Ketubah Designs can be used with *any text from my Text Choices page as long as it will fit in

the text space of that particular ketubah...unless otherwise specified. *However, combination texts (English

 PLUS Aramaic) cannot be used on 11 x14 inch ketubahs---only on 12 x16 and 12 x 18 inch ketubahs.

PERSONALIZATION of the English portion of the Ketubah is free. However, I am unable to personalize the

Aramaic portion of the ketubah; your Rabbi or Cantor will need to do that for you.
