| Mehndi - The mark of a Bridal |
Please send us your "Mehndi Designs" at: mehndi@telepk.com
No Pakistani wedding is ever complete without the Mehendi. Whichever part of the country the
bride may be from, her hands are adorned with the lovely red hue of the mehendi
(mehndi).
Beauty parlors have special bridal mehendi packs - these days, the brides have
a choice between the Pakistani mehendi (which covers pretty much most of the
palm) and the Arabic mehendi (in which the pattern is drawn to one side of the
hand). The cost of applying the mehendi may vary from parlor to parlor.
Mehendi (Mehndi) is associated to lots of things - a good dark design is a sign
of good luck for the marital couple. It is common for the names of the bride and
groom to be hidden in the mehndi design; and the wedding night cannot commence
until the groom has found the names. Some examples of popular traditional images
used in mehndi designs are the peacock, which is the national bird if India, the
lotus flower, and an elephant with a raised trunk, which is a symbol of good luck.
From adorning brides' hands, to being used to make hip tattoos on arms and
bellies, Mehendi / Mehndi or Henna has gone international. Once a typically
Pakistani custom and an indispensable part of a brides makeup, Mehendi has gone
cosmopolitan thanks to the attention it gets through stars like Madonna, No
Doubt and Bjork.
