About Bridal & Wedding Mehendi
Mehendi That Tells Your Story
Mehendi is my happy place. I get totally lost in creating designs, especially when I get to add your story into the art. For me, it’s not just about filling hands with patterns - it’s about making your wedding memories last on your skin.
Personal Touches & Portraits
I love doing custom bridal mehendi portraits. If you want your and your partner’s faces, or even full figures, right on your palms or arms, I’m all in. I can add doli, elephants, lotuses, or even your favourite deity like Shiva or Durga. If you have a special story or inside joke, let’s put that in too. When the design comes out just right, I honestly feel, “Bas, yeh toh ekdum mast lag raha hai!” (This looks just awesome!)
For Brides & The Whole Wedding Squad
- Full bridal mehendi from fingertips to elbows, feet to calves, both sides
- Mehendi for your bridesmaids, family, and all guests - from simple to bold, whatever your tribe likes
- I can handle big groups, so no one feels left out
My Style & Quality
I make my own henna paste for that deep, dark stain. My style is a mix of fine lines and bold shapes, with lots of peacocks, paisleys, and floral vines. I do a lot of Maharashtrian bridal mehendi patterns and traditional Indian wedding henna designs, but I’m always up for something new.
Where I Work
Based in Mumbai, but I travel for weddings in Pune and even destination weddings. If you want your mehendi to be as unique as your love story, let’s make it happen.

My Story
Hi, I'm Harshala from Mumbai. Mehendi is my peace, my obsession, my art - not just work. When folks dance at parties, I'm happiest with a henna cone, lost in the swirl of designs. I get to draw a bride’s story on her hands, sometimes even tiny family portraits or little secrets only she knows. Teaching mehendi now, too. From first lines to full bridal, I pour my heart. Yeh mera sukoon hai (this is my peace).
