Pre-Wedding Rituals

Mehndi & Haldi

The Mehndi and Haldi ceremonies are among the most photographed and cherished moments of any Indian wedding weekend. Poonam Creations designs intimate, beautiful settings for these rituals across Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin.

The Haldi ceremony calls for warm, earthy, and joyful decor — floral backdrops, marigold accents, and rustic elements that feel alive and abundant. Mehndi celebrations often call for something more jewel-toned and festive, with rich fabrics, layered textiles, and colorful cushion seating. Poonam designs both to photograph beautifully and feel welcoming from the moment guests arrive.

Whether you're hosting 20 family members in a backyard or 150 guests in a venue, Poonam tailors the setup to your scale and style. These ceremonies are increasingly popular as standalone design moments — and Poonam brings the same care and creativity she applies to the wedding day itself.
