About Bridal Mehndi
How I See Bridal Mehndi
I've been making mehndi designs in Delhi for 17 years. For me, mehndi is not just kaam (work), it's my junoon (passion). Every pattern I draw is part of your shaadi ki kahani (wedding story). I listen to what matters to you and shape it into your bridal mehndi.
What Makes My Mehndi Special
I like to mix tradition with your personal touch. You want a couple portrait mehndi? Done. Want your varmala scene or baraat in the design? Bina jhijhak (without hesitation), we can add that. Names, initials, wedding date - I’ll blend them in so they look natural. If you have a favourite motif, like peacock, elephant, or palace, just tell me.
Some brides want portraits of parents or religious figures - Radha-Krishna, Shiva-Parvati - I’m happy to include those too. Basically, if it’s part of your story, I’ll put it in.
My Style & Coverage
My designs are rooted in Rajasthani mehndi patterns and other styles like Marwari, Jaipuri, Madhubani, and Bombay. I specialise in intricate wedding henna, using fine lines and detail. Usually, I cover hands up to elbows and feet up to calves. I work with a small team, so your guests can also get mehndi without any tension.
Why I Do This
Honestly, the best part is hearing, “bhaiya ji, bahut hi khoobsurat mehandi lagai hai” (brother, you’ve applied very beautiful mehndi). I put my heart into every bridal mehndi, aiming to make it as personalised and memorable as possible.
