## About Personalized Bridal Mehandi: Your Story in Henna

Before I even open a henna cone, we sit down to discuss the exact moments you want on your hands. Whether it is a sketch of your first date, the wedding date, or a portrait of you and your partner, I map it out so it feels like your story, not just a standard design. Because these portraits require high precision, we plan the layout well ahead of your function.

Personalized mehandi is about capturing your life events on your skin. When you book a portrait bridal package, we are not just applying henna; we are creating a permanent memory of your wedding day. 

### How We Create Your Story
- **Layout Consultation:** We talk about the elements you want to include, from specific floral motifs to couple caricatures or traditional symbols like the doli or kalash.
- **Photo Reference:** For portrait designs, I work from high-quality photographs of the couple to ensure the sketch captures the likeness. 
- **Precision Work:** I use triple-sifted, chemical-free henna, prepared 24 to 48 hours in advance to ensure a deep, rich stain that makes the fine lines of the portrait pop.

### Important Details for Your Booking
- **Time Commitment:** Portrait-heavy designs are intricate and require patience. Depending on the complexity and the number of elements, be prepared for a session that lasts between 5 to 7 hours.
- **Placement:** We decide together whether these elements go on the palms, the forearms, or are integrated into a larger, continuous sleeve design. 
- **Travel:** I travel to your venue across Varanasi and the NCR region, ensuring you can get ready in the comfort of your home.
