👰 A complete set for a royal ceremony
A Moroccan wedding is a grand event where the bride often changes outfits, called takchita . At each change, she is accompanied by symbolic jewelry, sometimes inherited, often given as a gift or custom-made.
💎 The bride's must-have jewelry
- Layered necklaces: often made of solid gold, worn cascading across the chest
- Rigid bracelets: in yellow gold, worn in pairs, sometimes engraved
- Diadem or headband: central jewel of the hairstyle, particularly visible during the outing in amariya
- Statement earrings: classic or modern, depending on the bride's tastes
- Multiple rings: sometimes on each finger, in diamond or engraved gold
🌍 Regional variations
In Marrakech , Amazigh jewelry in chiseled silver is sometimes added to the gold. In Fez and Meknes , traditional designs in 18k gold are favored. In Casablanca , brides often opt for a mix of classic and modern, with diamonds in solitaire or halo settings.
