Vibrant Drapes

When it comes to drapes, make sure it is vibrant and colourful. Go for hot pinks, yellow, orange, purple, green or any other bright colour to decorate your entry way, make canopies or any other thing, but make sure they complement each other. It is best to use 2-3 colourful drapes at a time as less is more.

But if you are planning to use more drapes for the mehendi morning, then use some subtle colours along with bright ones like white, light blue, lime green or any other light colour so that the drapes look beautiful, not gaudy.

Genda Phool Decor

One flower which instantly brightens up the whole decor is genda phool. Hang them as strings or in various shapes, use them to decorate your props or style them with other flowers, they will always add an oomph factor to any mehendi ceremony.

Tips: Have a crazy mehendi and try the #mannequin challenge with your team.

Pin Wheel

Pin wheel is one of the most common item/toy seen in a mela, so why not have them at your mehendi ceremony too! Use them as a backdrop, hang them together or use them in any other way, they will simply make your mela theme decor wow.

Game Stalls

No carnival is complete without a few game stalls. A shooting stall, crossbow stall, ring stall etc. are must haves at your mehendi mela-themed ceremony. It will not only keep the young ones occupied, but will also make the adults happy!

Food Stalls

Other than game stalls, every fair has various other kinds of stands like refreshing beverage stall, food cart (thela), cotton candy stall, chuski stall, bangle stall, some handcraft items stalls and what not, so do not hesitate to add these types of stalls at your function to get the full feel of a mela.

Folk Music/Dance

Having a DJ is a good idea, but if you want to add a desi vibe at your mehendi ceremony, then call some folk dancers, musicians or dhol walas and let everyone dance to their tunes. Take some hint from this picture.

Other Decor

Carnivals are all about fun and so should be your decor. Use cycles, rickshaws, trucks, autos, giant wheels as props. And if you are not that keen on using props but still want certain elements, then go for bright colourful board designs as backdrops, hang teapots, ghungroo bangles, lanterns, paper crafts, puppets or any other thing to make your mehendi ceremony an affair to remember!
