Ketubah accessories

• Archival pen for signing your ketubah - This archival pen is perfect for signing your ketubah. It uses pigmet inks, just like the ketubah, so it will not fade over time.
• Temporary frame for protection - It is a good idea to have a simple frame at your ceremony. It lets you quickly protect your ketubah after signing it, and makes it easier to display during the reception. I used this style of clip frame in my own wedding. An alterative box frame is also available.
