About Wedding Mehendi
What Mehendi Means to Me
Mehendi isn’t just a skill I picked up; it’s what makes me happy. After 12 years doing this, I still get excited about creating something beautiful for every bride. I put my all into every design, especially when it comes to bridal mehendi.
Bridal Mehendi, My Way
My main thing is detailed, full-hand and leg mehendi for brides. I don’t just stop at brides - I do designs for your mom, sisters, and siders too. If your wedding is Gujarati, Maharashtrian, or anything else, I love working in those traditions.
- Full coverage: hands, arms, legs, feet
- Designs for family members, not just the bride
- Intricate bridal mehendi designs that match your traditions
Your Story in Henna
Every bride has her own story, and I like to let that show in the mehendi. Want to add portraits, wedding moments, or something quirky like your pet or favorite food? I’m all for it. Nothing cookie-cutter here.
- Personalized wedding henna with portraits, hobbies, or special symbols
My Style
I mix classic and modern. You’ll see peacocks, lotuses, palaces, and some cool shading or cutwork. I’m all about getting those small details right.
Getting That Deep Stain
I use only natural henna. I’ll guide you so you get a rich, natural dark mehendi stain that lasts and looks fab in photos.
Where I Work
I’m in Virar West, Mumbai, but I travel all over - even for destination weddings. Big wedding? I bring my team, so everyone’s sorted. And haan, Hanumant dada ni krupa chhe (with Lord Hanuman’s blessing, all goes well).

My Story
Hi, I’m Alpa. Been doing mehendi for 12 years—yup, it’s not just work for me, it’s kinda my heartbeat. Hanumant sada sahayate (Lord Hanuman always helps), that’s my faith and this art is my blessing. Mostly, I’m all about bridal mehendi, but honestly, any festival or even that pahli barish (first rain) vibe, I’m there. I teach too, and seeing my students nail it? Pure joy. Mehendi isn’t just tradition—it’s our happiness.

Intricate Portrait Mehendi - Love making detailed bridal designs, figures, and portraits that really tell your story.
Certified Mehendi Classes - I teach hands-on mehendi courses in Virar West, from basics to advanced, for anyone who wants to learn.
