Bride #2 Bridal Henna/Mehndi

It's a neutral option towards having bridal henna/mehndi. I don't hate it nor love it, but from the google images I found, they're pretty good looking. I want something like these, just hands only - from fingers, palms and on hands up to the elbow; heavily patterned with intricate designs:




This is what I plan to get, it would be great if the design can perfectly combined to form a circle when I put my hands together side-by-side:


I want to hide his name somewhere on it ;P. Hubby-to-be is already asking how will I put his name in the design, he's curious hehe.

Last week, I sent out request for quotation emails to 5 henna vendors. Only 4 of them replied. The quoted price is from RM200 to RM600! Woahhh mahal jugak rupenye nak berinai nih.

I've booked Renuka from Creative Henna Designs because she's flexible on the henna/mehndi design (she said I can even have different pattern for each hand) and her price is reasonable for the design that I want (refer pic above). Below are some of her work - I'm obsessed with cleanliness and neatness - so she's good:
