Indian weddings are almost never complete without the bride and her entourage having a grand mehendi ceremony. Before D-day arrives, this is an occasion for everyone to celebrate, decorate themselves with the traditional dye, eat, dance and be merry. While some opt for simple traditional motifs to decorate their hands and feet, there are those who love to opt for grand and elaborate mehendi designs to make chic statements. If you consider yourself to fall in the latter category, then you must definitely be planning on trendy new mehendi designs to try this wedding season. Isn't it?
Mehendi is something that's not just an important part of Indian wedding ceremonies, but festivals and family get-togethers too. The whole event of applying mehendi is always elaborate as friends and family get together to decorate their hands and feet while also chitter chatter, dance and make the most of the festivities. Now since Indian festivities can't go by without the glitz and glamour, so make it a point to dress up from head to toe in everything glamorous, including mehendi designs that are guaranteed to set you apart.
From bridesmaid to bride-to-be, there are endless options available for picking the best mehendi designs to glam up in. So this wedding season, we bring you seven ideas that will be a huge hit. Take a look:
1. One sided mehendi
If elaborate mehendi designs is not your thing, then that doesn't mean you need to play spoilsport while all your friends get their hands decorated. You too can join in the fun by opting for chic and minimalist patterns on one side of your hand. A standout central detail with patterns on the fingers can make for a chic look, such as this design.

5. Geometrical patterns
There's no denying that geometrical shapes actually work wonders when it comes to mehendi designs. They actually create a neat look and you can always fill up with floral or traditional motifs to make it more striking and elaborate.
6. All-time favourite mesh patterns
We feel that the best mehendi designs are those that have some order even if the patterns look excessive. As such, the mesh patterns are a popular pick for bridal mehendi because they never fail to create a stunning effect combined with intricate detailing that of course take a few hours but worth the time.
7. Graphic mehendi
Looking for something more dramatic this wedding season? Well, there's nothing better than some graphic art to make a style statement in. With mehendi, you can actually opt for a standout look by creating graphic patterns representing a bride and groom or even fun and quirky animal graphics.
