A line for the card
They say the darker the mehndi, the deeper the love. Come and help Tanya’s along.
What happens at a mehndi
The bride’s hands and feet are painted with henna while the women of the family sing and the dholki doesn’t stop. It’s usually a day or two before the wedding, at home or in a garden.
Somewhere in her mehndi, the artist hides the groom’s name. Finding it is his first test.
What to wear to a mehndi
Greens, pinks and every bright colour, in something comfortable to sit in for hours, with sleeves that roll up for the henna.
Mehndi and sangeet on one evening
Many families now hold the mehendi and the sangeet on the same night. One link carries both, each with its own time, place and colours, and each with its own card.
