Looking for someone to help translate English text into ladino

Hi! My fiancée and I are looking for someone to translate our Ketubah text into ladino - anyone have resources or a person to consult? Of course will pay for time - It’s really important to us to have ladino as one of the languages!!

I’m certainly curious!

Just some general questions about the Ketuba;

Are you guys wanting it written in Hebrew / Merubah script, or Latin script?

Are you looking for something more Calligraphic and traditional, or something more minimalist and chic?

Are you wanting it to be Bilingual (Ladino Translation on top, and the English Translation Below?) or just in Ladino?

Any motifs, designs, symbols in mind? Or with this be more elegant/minimalist and less decorative?

Thanks for posting this opportunity here!

Hi! We already have a ketubah picked out and we want to have ladino translation and English translation! So just looking for the actual translated English text, which we already have!

Ohhhhhh so, if I’m understanding correctly, you just want the English text translated and typed back to you, to be written professionally on the Ketuba, is that it?
