All of our guests are welcome.
Traditionally, a mehndi ceremony is a pre-wedding event where the bride receives henna designs on her hands and feet. The designs are symbolic of good health and love. Mehndi parties are vibrant and colorful events that include food and music. Please come hungry!! We will also have a Mehndi artist at our event offering simple henna designs for guests if desired.
The suggested dress code is Semi-Formal/Cocktail attire. We encourage women to wear Desi/Indian clothing (saris or lehengas) or brightly colored dresses and men to wear western semi-formal (tie optional). Please reach out to the bride or groom with any questions!
