A separate invitation for the henna night
If you are marrying into a Turkish family, the henna night may be the part of the week you know least about. It is a separate evening with its own guest list — and it works best with its own invitation.

What is a henna night?
The kına gecesi is an evening held one or two days before the wedding, traditionally for the bride and the women closest to her. Henna is placed in the bride's palm, there is music, and it is the emotional farewell to her family home.
It is smaller and more intimate than the wedding. Where two hundred people come to the wedding, fifty might come to the henna night.
Why it needs its own invitation
Adding one line about the henna night to the wedding invitation creates two problems at once: guests who are not invited to it still read that line and do not know whether to come, and two different venues on one screen get confused — which address opens the directions?
A separate invitation means a separate link. Only the henna list gets it, and nobody has to guess.
One name is enough
The henna night is traditionally the bride's, and most invitations carry a single name. Joint henna nights with the groom have become common, so there is a second name field — leave it empty and the design closes around one name without leaving a dangling separator.
The venue is often decided late; it can be a home, a garden or a small hall. Venue, address, time and wording all stay editable after publishing, so you do not have to wait until everything is settled.

Before you decide
Frequently asked
Is one invitation enough for the henna night and the wedding?
It works, but it is not recommended. The two events have different venues, times and guest lists; a separate invitation gives each its own link.
Does the groom’s name have to be on a henna invitation?
No. The second name field is optional; left empty, the design closes around a single name.
Can I collect photos from the night?
Yes. Through the memory section inside the invitation, guests can send you the shots they took that evening.
