"Elyse did my bridal henna and the experience from start to finish was a DREAM. She was very communicative from the get go and was willing to travel for the mehndi party as well as contract out with another henna artist in order for all of my guests to also receive small henna designs. She was very professional and brought all of her own equipment, makes her own henna paste, and was able to incorporate special elements to my husband and my relationship into the design. Overall I was very pleased with the outcome and would use her services again and highly recommend her to anyone in the tri-state area for bridal henna or other henna functions!"

Got my bridal henna done by Elyse and was very happy with the results. Got many compliments on it! She works pretty fast and was able to do a lot within my appointment time. She's also tried a new design on my hands she's never done before and she executed it perfectly. Highly recommend going to Elyse for henna!

We had a great experience having Henna by Elyse at Sarah Noble Intermediate School's Fun Fest for Families. Our students had such fun learning about the art of henna and discussing the designs that Elyse adorned their hands with.

Elyse was easy to work with, and required only a table and chairs to share her art with our community.

Thanks for making our night so special!

Elyse is a henna angel! I had pre wedding henna done and Elyse created a design on my arm that was beautiful beyond what I had hoped for! The experience was amazing and fun - Elyse is legit fun to spend time with and she works in a skilled and efficient way to create magic with henna! I received countless compliments for weeks to come on the stains and I’m literally on the look out for the next time that I can get henna and work with Elyse!

Elyse was such a joy to work with to get henna for our wedding! We had a unique situation with an American ceremony, then a Moroccan ceremony, with my (the bride’s) henna done in between the two, and then had henna for the guests during cocktail hour and the reception. Elyse worked with me while booking to make sure that everything flowed properly. I absolutely loved my henna design, and Elyse worked so quickly and despite being under pressure between ceremonies, the henna came out beautifully. The guests had a blast getting their henna done as well! Elyse is a true professional and is very flexible while making sure that the event goes smoothly. She even helped me fluff my dress and veil before walking down the aisle for the American ceremony since nobody was left to help! She was so sweet and kind and a blast to have at our wedding. Thank you Elyse for helping us have an amazing day!

“Elyse does amazing work! She conveniently met me and my children in a beautiful outdoor spot and made their first henna experience a success! She listened to what they had in mind and brought it to life perfectly - they are thrilled with the outcome! Definitely recommend Elyse for your henna needs.”

“Elyse visited our library to host a Henna program as part of our teen summer reading! The kids in attendance loved hearing all that Elyse had to say about the practice of Henna and were full of questions. She kept them engaged throughout the program with interactive activities, games, questions and of course a one of a kind Henna design for each child! Elyse is professional and was easy to communicate with in the time leading up the program. Highly recommend!”

“We hired Elyse for my daughter’s 10th birthday party- not only was she the center of calm in the chaos of 15 little girls, but every single one of them were thrilled with the experience. Her designs are gorgeous, everyone got what they wanted, and most importantly I know it’s something they’ll always remember.”

—Emily S., June 2023

“The design came out better than the inspiration! The experience was excellent and Elyse was very kind! Will be booking again very soon!”

“We had Elyse at our library to do a Henna event and it was amazing! Not only did she give a great presentation explaining the facts and fiction about Henna she also did beautiful works of Henna art on each participant. She was very easy to work with and we will for sure have her back for more events! I would highly recommend her for all your Henna needs!”
