There are two types of marriages in Comoros, the little marriage (known as ''Mna daho'' on Ngazidja) and the customary marriage (known as ''ada'' on Ngazidja, ''harusi'' on the other islands). The little marriage is a simple legal marriage. It is small, intimate, and inexpensive and the bride's dowry is nominal. A man may undertake a number of ''Mna daho'' marriages in his lifetime, often at the same time, a woman fewer; but both men and women will usually only undertake one ''ada'', or grand marriage, and this must generally be within the village. The hallmarks of the grand marriage are dazzling gold jewelry, two weeks of celebration and an enormous bridal dowry. Although the expenses are shared between both families as well as with a wider social circle, an ada wedding on Ngazidja can cost up to €50,000 (74,000 US dollars). Many couples take a lifetime to save for their ada, and it is not uncommon for a marriage to be attended by a couple's adult children.
