Ketubah Signing Table Flowers

A refined setting for signing the marriage contract.

The ketubah is the Jewish marriage contract, signed by witnesses — and often by the couple and officiant — before the chuppah. CHIC Flowers designs the signing table so it is beautiful in photos and practical to use: low arrangements that leave room for the ketubah, pens, and witnesses, and a display for the ketubah at the reception afterward.

When and where the ketubah is signed

At traditional weddings, the ketubah is signed at the groom's tisch, in the presence of the rabbi and two witnesses, before the bedeken. At many Reform and Conservative weddings, the couple, officiant, and witnesses sign in a small private gathering before the ceremony. Either way, the signing table is usually in a separate room and needs to be ready early.

Designing the table

The table has to work, not just look good. We keep arrangements low and to the sides so the ketubah lies flat in the center, with space for the witnesses to lean in and sign. A floral runner or a pair of low arrangements, a linen in the wedding palette, and candles where the venue allows them create a setting that photographs beautifully.

If the signing takes place at the tisch, we design around the food and drink on the table.

Displaying the ketubah

After the ceremony, many couples display the signed ketubah at the reception on an easel or small table, framed with flowers. We design the display to match the chuppah and move signing-table arrangements to it where possible.

What goes on a ketubah signing table?+
The ketubah, pens, and space for the witnesses to sign, framed by low arrangements or a floral runner. We keep the center clear so the document lies flat.
How big should the arrangements be?+
Low and to the sides, so they don't get in the way of the signers and still look full in photos.

Yes. We frame the signed ketubah on an easel or small table with flowers that match the chuppah, often reusing the signing-table arrangements.
