Interesting things about Mehndi Design in India



                         The groom's name is hidden in the bride's mehndi.


  • While in some parts of India, it is believed that if the groom fails to find his name within the elaborated patterns, the bride will be dominant in conjugal life. 

  • In other parts, the wedding night will not be allowed to commence, until the groom finds his name in the mehndi design.


  • This is another strategy to let the groom touch the bride's hands to find his name, thus initiating the physical relationship.






  • The bride is traditionally not allowed to work in her husband's residence until her mehndi's color fades away fully.
  • If an unmarried girl receives scrapings of mehndi leaves from a bride, she will soon find a suitable match.
