Personalized Storytelling Mehndi
Your mehndi should be about you. I work with you to turn your love story, portraits, and special memories into intricate, detailed henna art.
This client testimonial perfectly explains how we can personalize your engagement mehndi. We included a castle, a custom logo, a couple portrait, and even a calendar marking the special date.
It was a joy to create this custom design for my bride. She wanted to include her parents, Radha Krishna, a baraat scene, and the sindoor ceremony, and she loved how it all came together.
A full bridal design telling a complete story, with couple portraits on the palms, a dholki ceremony, and a depiction of the wedding venue on the arms.
This bride wanted to include a memory from Dubai. I created a design featuring the city's skyline and a portrait of the couple in a van, making her mehndi a travelogue of their love story.
Yes, I can even include your furry family members. This bridal design features a portrait of the bride's beloved dog, nestled among traditional Rajasthani palace and peacock motifs.
A beautiful engagement mehndi featuring a dancing couple, a calendar with the date, and a personal hashtag, "#ekMAYAaurAKtu", making it truly unique.
For the couple who found each other from their windows. This design, inspired by the song "Mere Samne Wali Khidki Mein," shows the bride and groom looking at each other from their respective windows.
About this collection
When we do a storytelling design, I do not just copy pictures. We chat beforehand to map out what matters to you. Whether it is your proposal date, a sketch of your pet, or the skyline of the city where you met, I need to know the story behind the element to draw it properly. It takes 8 to 10 hours for a full-day storytelling session, so we need to plan the timeline carefully.
My approach to personalized mehndi is all about detail and meaning. It is not about filling space, but about filling hands with your personal history. I use reverse negative space techniques to make portraits pop against the dark, natural henna stain.
What we can include
- Couple Portraits: Realistic sketches based on your photos.
- Personal Milestones: Wedding dates, proposal locations, or city skylines.
- Hidden Elements: Initials, inside jokes, or names of family members.
- Pet Portraits: I can include your furry family members in the design.
- Scripting: Your vows, favorite quotes, or shlokas in clean calligraphy.
Pricing and Timeline
This work falls under my Signature Storytelling package, which ranges from ₹19,000 to ₹25,000. Because of the intense detail, this is a full-day commitment (8 to 10+ hours).
The Process
Once you book, we have a pre-event consultation to storyboard your design. You send me the photos and references, and I sketch out how they fit on your hands. If you have a specific venue in mind or a memory from a trip abroad, we can integrate those architectural or scenic elements. I use triple-sifted organic Sojat Henna, so not only will the design tell a story, it will also leave a deep, dark colour for your wedding days.
