Wedding Ceremony Part III: The Ketubah Reading
An Orthodox Perspective by Rivka C. Berman

Formally, the ketubah is read as a way to keep the division clear between the Erusin ceremony and the Kiddushin ceremony. Apparently Rabbi Shlomo Yitzchaki (1040-1105), a preeminent Torah commentator better known by the acronym Rashi, created this custom to refresh the groom’s memory of his obligations to his wife.

The officiating rabbi may choose to share a wedding sermon during this pause between the Erusin and Nesuin ceremonies.
