Sarika’s Mehndi Celebration

As Sarika and Aaron’s multi-day, multi-cultural wedding approaches, it starts with the traditional Mehndi celebration. It is filled with music, food, family, friends, dance, color and of course, traditional henna designs for the bride. The artistry is amazing, second only to Sarika’s ability to hold still for hours on end — thanks in part to her friends and family who helped feed her snacks and scratch her back. Everyone crammed into the room to participate in the lively event – and this is only a hint of the grand celebration to take place the next day.
