Mehndi invitation wording: samples for the bride's mehndi night

5 min read · Updated 28 October 2026

The Mehndi is where the bride's hands and feet are decorated with henna while family and friends sing, dance and eat. It's often an afternoon-into-evening function and one of the most photographed, so a little guidance in the invitation goes a long way.

What to include

  • Whose Mehndi it is and who is hosting.
  • Start time, and roughly how long it runs. Henna takes hours, so guests like to know when the music and food begin.
  • Venue and map link.
  • Dress code: greens, pinks, florals or 'festive casual' are common.
  • Whether guests can get mehndi applied too. Many families arrange extra artists.

Tips that make the evening smoother

  • Put food and music timings in the note, so guests who don't want henna know when to arrive.
  • If artists are limited, say 'mehndi for the first 40 guests' or ask guests to RSVP for it.
  • Share the sangeet or wedding details in the same link so nobody needs a second message.

Questions, answered.

Traditionally it was hosted by the bride's family, but many weddings now hold one Mehndi for both sides, or a small one at the groom's home too.
