Source(google.com.pk)People thought that it was not the appropriate to wear lavish dresses, when there was grief all around. After the war ended, luxurious wedding dresses in white jumped back into the center stage. With time, shades of white, cream, off white or ivory became acceptable as wedding dress colors. Today brides' dresses have adopted varied dressing styles. From the timeless white to the Hawaiian beach dress, the options are endless.
Mehndi has a long history in India, the majority centering on weddings. The role of henna goes beyond cosemetic and aesthetic value, and has a much deeper meaning to the women of India.
The night before a wedding is known as the 'Night of Henna” or Mehndi when the bride's hands and feet are decorated with elaborate designs. The designs are usually floral with some signifying fertility. The grooms name is hidden within the right palm of the bride, and he must find it before he is allowed to sleep on his wedding night.
At the Mehndi, relatives and friends (married as well as unmarried) of the bride gather at the bride's house. While the henna is being applied the bride is given advice by older women on married life. There are many folk songs that have been written about the Mehndi and often singing them is a natural progression of the festivities.
In some parts of India, henna is also applied to the bridegroom's palms. The deep red of Mehndi symbolizes the deep love between the husband and wife.
