Are there Jewish marriage licenses?

There is the Ketubah which is signed by the husband and the wife at the wedding. The Ketubah is basically a Jewish declaration that you are husband and wife, and that you promise to be faithful, kind, etc., to each other. It is not a legal document. But if you are religious, under Jewish Law, they take it very seriously. There is actually a form of a court that is make up of rabbi to settle issues in the community, but I digress....

Is the Ketubah signed before or during the Jewish wedding ceremony?

The Groom and two admissable witnesses sign the Ketubah before the wedding ceremony can begin. It is a legal document that lists in great detail how the groom promises to provide for the bride, as well as the recourse and rights she is guaranteed in the event that the marriage fails. A vital point in the ceremony is that the groom hands the signed contract to the bride, and that she accepts it FOR THE PURPOSE of marriage, and the document is then hers.
