- Kına Gecesi (Henna Night)
A traditional Turkish pre-wedding ceremony
Kına Gecesi is a cherished Turkish tradition held before the wedding, dedicated to the bride, the women of her family, and her close female friends.
It’s often compared to a bachelorette party — but with a much more traditional and emotional spirit.
What happens during Kına Gecesi?
• Takes place 1–2 days before the wedding, usually at the bride’s home or a specially chosen venue
• The bride wears a red dress or a traditional bindallı, with a red veil
• Women sing traditional songs and share heartfelt wishes with the bride
• The most emotional moment: henna is placed on the bride’s palm, symbolizing happiness and prosperity in marriage — usually done by the groom’s mother or an elder woman
• After the ritual, the night turns joyful with dancing, food, and celebration
The meaning of Kına Gecesi:
• The bride’s farewell to her family and preparation for a new life
• Protection and good luck for marriage
• Bringing together women from family and close friendships
This tradition exists not only in Turkey, but also in the Middle East, South Asia, and the Balkans, each with its own local touch.
