Mehendi Designs

I knew I wanted full bridal Mehndi on my hands, arms, feet and for the stain to be as dark as possible. The very talented Neeta Sharma from Mehndi Designs in San Jose, California spent almost 8 hours applying the henna. My Mehndi design included elements that were unique to mine and Kevin’s love story. Incorporated in the beautiful, intricate design was Major League Baseball’s San Diego Padres logo -- an homage to our first date watching the Padres baseball team play. To honor Kevin’s profession and dedication as a doctor, I included a stethoscope in my mehndi. Additionally, I had a sunset and palm trees in my mehndi, as a symbol of our honeymoon destination Turks and Caicos. Lastly, Neeta added detailed peacocks to represent Kevin’s two beautiful pet peacocks. As an Indian tradition, Neeta also hid Kevin’s name throughout my mehndi. It was a fun search on our flight to Turks and Caicos after our wedding.Source
