Anyhooooo, I think it's time for me to talk a lil bit on Henna or Inai as we Malays called. Inai is indeed a significant part in a malay wedding. Initially, I've only wanted to do french manicure similar to the ones I did during my engagement as pictured below. Hmmmm, kan simple and nice and fuss free hands without daun sana sini.
But apparently, apart from my mom who similarly doesnt like Henna as much as me and I believe she will also be heck care dont care whether Im wearing an inai or french manicure segala, I bet the rest of the makcik quarters will have something to say about it. I can even hear their voices in my thoughts, and giving expressions of fatal doom that for some reason I wanted to break the rules and not wear Inai.
So, me and dear momma have decided to still go wearing the inai but MINIMAL INAI designs on my hand at most. Nothing fancy shmancy on the palms either. Just for "syarat" purposes. So, while we are at it, I have decided to make this whole torturing experience a LOT MORE FUN and have a full blast Mehndi Night to it with Bollywood Style.
Since, I will be tortured sleeping with the paste on (I sure hope they have those express inai paste that CAN be washed away after an hour cos the smell turns me off, BIG TIME ), let's make the process FUN instead.
So, the date is set. It will be ONE DAY before our Solemnization date and we are going to do it in the Multi Purpose Hall at the park where I will be having my event on Sunday. Since, the decor will be up by then, why not just have a party in it aye?
And so, I have engaged the good people from Saheli Bridal as the official Henna People for the Mehndi Night. I just loved their designs and how they are able to cater to different people's taste. They are charging me $100 for both hands and feet as we signed up during the previous Wedding Fair at the Singapore Expo. And they are super friendly too!! I loike!!
So here are some of their designs that they uploaded on their AWESOME possum FB page which gives me a lil'bit of inspiration.

| These are my ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE. |
 |
| I only like the "CENTRE PART" which has the initials. Cool right? |
 |
| They dont call me a BabBling! Bride without those little Blings! right? |
I guess that's about it for the gorgeous designs by Saheli Bridal. I have also looked up on the internet on the various so much rave about moroccan henna designs and I sure do like the style too. Some example macam gini kalau korang nak tahu...
| See how it brings out the Bling!! |
 |
| This I SUKA! like Mad! |
And speaking of Bollywood Blast, might need to recce some Lehenga as well for the Mehndi Night. And lastly, every Mehndi Night wouldnt be complete by this song aye?
Mehndi Laga Ke Rakhna Everybody!!!
Till then,
Loved.
