So are you a bride who doesn't like an arm full of Mehendi on your big day? It could be due to an allergy, the repulsive smell or just not being fond of Mehendi. Whatever it is, it's part of our tradition, and whether you like it or not, someone in the family will pretty much get you put at least a little bit on. That is exactly why WedMeGood has put up a list of options for you, which will make you and everyone else happy! Simple and minimalistic Mehendi designs that solve the problem in a jiffy!

A simple design that can be done quickly! A single kali on the front and the back on both the sides that ends at the wrist.

Mehendi designs as jewellery are so unique and interesting! Plus, this can really stand out apart from the regular crowd who will have simpler Mehendi as well! Read more about it on WMG here.

Arabian Mehendi designs are wow as it is, but this one just stands out so much more thanks to the contrast with the skin!

Instead of doing the simple circle in the middle of the palm (which some brides do really prefer, btw), choose to do something a little more creative!

Just borders

Instead of filling up the whole hand, you can even choose to get only borders designed that run through the front and back. Stands out, doesn't it?

Another way to do it simply is to do only half the hand and leave the remaining empty.

This one has just the outlines which stand out so beautifully in contrast to the skin! Simple yet does the job!

Go non-traditional, choose a modern design

You can opt for Greek-inspired designs, like the one above or just something really hatke from the traditional!

Sparse but Interesting!

Just a few sparse details spread out beautifully, this one will definitely be a great alternative to a full-hand intricate Mehendi.
