Bridal henna designs
Temple arches, jaali and mor — built around the story you want your hands to tell.
Bridal henna is a language before it is a picture. Jaali is the lattice that fills a panel without closing it; the mor is drawn for the beginning of something; paisley is the shape most borders are built from.
Names, initials and small portraits sit inside those forms rather than beside them, so they are found rather than announced. Every design is freehand — no stencils, no transfers.
Freehand, cone-drawn · From £50
Traditional dense
Full coverage with temple arches, lotus crowns and mirrored borders on hands and feet.
Modern open
Fine linework with generous open skin — panels, diamonds and single trailing vines.
Personal motifs
Portraits, initials, a first date, a flower from the bouquet, worked into the jaali.
What is the difference between henna and mehndi?
Henna is the material and the art; mehndi is the ceremony as well as the art. In practice people use both for the same thing.
How dark will the stain go?
Deep brown by the second day if the paste stays on six hours or more and the hands are kept away from water at first.
Can you match my outfit or jewellery?
Yes. Send photographs of the outfit and the jewellery and the borders can be drawn to echo them.
