The custom
What happens at the mehndi?
The mehndi is the bride's henna ceremony, usually held a day or two before the wedding at her home or a garden venue. A henna artist draws the bride's design, often with the groom's name hidden in it, while the women of the family sing, dance and get their own hands done. Many families hold a small mehndi for the groom too. Green, pink and bright colours are the usual dress code.
