Question

What is Mehndi and what does it symbolize?

Answer

Mehndi (MEN-dee): the practice of making designs on a bride's hands and feet with henna (a reddish-brown dye) for Indian weddings. In the Hindu tradition, mehndi is part of the Solah Shringar, or sixteen bridal adornments, which is a ritual for the beautification of the bride from head to toe at the time of her wedding. It’s said that the darker the stain of the mehndi, the more love the bride will receive from her husband and in-laws. Traditionally, a Mehndi party is a pre-wedding event for the bride and her closest female friends and family, but modern Mehndi parties are co-ed with guests from both sides, which ours will be. The mehndi artist will apply simple designs to guests' hands during the party. Each design will take less than 10 minutes to apply. The paste will take about 30 minutes to dry and can be left on as long as overnight for a rich, dark color.
