Aksara’s Mehndi Masti

We kick off the wedding week with a vibrant night of Masti, laughter and the intricate artistry of mehndi designs.

The Significance of Mehndi

The Mehndi ceremony is one of the oldest and most beloved traditions in Hindu weddings, marking the official start of the wedding festivities.

This ritual is a moment for the bride to pause, relax, and share laughter with her family and friends before the wedding chaos begins. The process involves adorning her hands and feet with complex, beautiful designs using henna paste.

Mehndi is believed to bring good fortune, prosperity, and blessings to the couple’s impending marriage. It is a vibrant symbol of fruitfulness and the deep bond between the couple.

Traditionally, the depth of the henna color symbolises the depth of the love and affection between the couple and her in-laws. It is said that the deeper the shade, the stronger the marriage will be!
