I love all things weddings and after doing a series of outfit ideas for bride for different pre wedding ceremonies I realized there is a lot of information about bridal fashion over the internet but when it comes to grooms there is hardly any content for men to take inspiration from. So I decided to explore the world of men's wedding fashion a bit more and bring about a series on men's wedding attire. You may have already seen some male related wedding content being churned out on this blog in the recent past. Today I decided to write a post on mens mehndi designs.
Traditional henna was supposed to be used by both men and women but over time mehndi became more of a girl thing. Even today in many parts of India it is hindu custom for grooms to participate actively in the mehndi ceremony by getting mehndi designs applied on their palms. While brides prefer their mehndi to be elaborate covering entire length of both front and back of hands, groom mehndi designs are more simple and geometric in nature mostly covering just their palms.
Simple mehndi designs dont mean a circle in the centre of palms with bride and groom initials. If the groom is getting mehndi applied then rock it in style with latest henna patterns. Here in this post I bring to you my fresh selection of latest mehndi designs for grooms this year. These mehndi designs can ofcourse be applied even by women for a bold edgy look.
