What is the knocking ceremony?

The groom's family visits the bride's family to ask for her hand, often weeks before the traditional marriage. It has its own card.

Are Adinkra symbols included?

No. Adinkra symbols carry specific meanings, so we left them out. The borders are original kente-inspired stripes.

‘Akwaaba’ and ‘Medaase’ are printed in the design. Everything else is editable English.

How do I get the files?

Straight after payment the download page opens with a button for every file, and we email you the same link. Nothing is posted.

How should I print them?

Open the PDF in Adobe Acrobat Reader or your browser and print at 100% or ‘Actual size’, not ‘Fit to page’. Matte card of 200–300 gsm gives the nicest finish, but plain paper works too.

Can I print more than one copy?

Yes. The personal-use licence lets you print as many copies as you need for your own home, family and events, at home or at a print shop. Please do not share or resell the files.
