The Henna Tradition Modernized
The gorgeous bride Chaitalee Patil is an Instagram freelance model and was the winner of Mrs. India Empress of Nation 2019 and Mrs. India Top Model 2019. Also a fashion influencer, Chaitalee has certainly inspired future brides to make bold and unconventional choices, as hers ended up being such a hit! The Mehndi ceremony is an ancient and honored Indian wedding tradition in which the henna paste is applied the night before the wedding, typically to the bride’s hands and arms. The paste itself is a natural product that’s associated with good luck and positive spirits. The color washes away over time which makes it perfect for temporary body art, and the application of the paste requires patience and precision. The ceremony of applying the paste is a way of wishing the bride prosperity, joy, and good health as she begins her marriage journey.
