15+ Simple Groom Mehndi Designs Because It’s Your Wedding Day too

15+ Simple Groom Mehndi Designs Because It’s Your Wedding Day too

“Why should girls have all the fun?” But when it comes to applying mehndi, we are the ones who always have fun. The tiring wait for it to dry, the best excuse for not being able to use the hands, and the excitement of watching how the color of the henna will turn out to be, are all feeling the Indian women have known since a tender age. Let’s agree that we are obsessed with mehndi so much that we didn’t give our men the opportunity to enjoy it as much. 

Interestingly, mehndi was never an all-female affair! It’s unknown when and how this tradition got associated only with women. Historically, it was common for many communities to practice the traditions of grooms also applying mehndi. It’s still prevalent in many parts of the country, for example, Gujarat and Rajasthan. However, they are usually limited to small designs, just for the sake of tradition.   

But then came Ranbir Kapoor, sporting palms full of mehndi in the famous song “Channa Mereya” having mehndi on both back and front of the hand. Something which is generally done by women. Thanks to Ranbir Kapoor, the long-forgotten tradition now seems mainstream to men! And hence modern grooms have been all about mehndi lately.  

So, if you’d like some real-world examples of simple groom mehndi designs, this is the place for inspiration.

4. The Unconventional Mehndi

If you are too much of a hipster, try going the bohemian style. You can pick any other part of your body where your mehndi is visible and turn it into a tattoo rather than the conventional design 

5. Mehendi Designs for Groom’s Hand (Back)

6. Pretty Initials Groom Mehndi Design

Yet another option for going the fancy way. Have a geometric, Gothic, or abstract design on the wrists rather than the hand. 

7. Design your Nicknames
