20 Must Have Mehndi Shots To Have At Your Indian Wedding!

The pictures of your bridal mehndi design are some of the most essential parts of your wedding album. While your hand will be the most ornamented part of your body with the bangles, choodas and your engagement ring, your mehendi design will be the most highlighted part of it all!

And while you will take tons of pictures of the same, we don’t want you to click the cliched showing-off-your mehendi pictures like Deepika and Kalki here.

Here’s us listing 20 totally non-cliched, candid pictures that amazingly capture your mehndi designs:

1. The one with the brightest smile:
