Inspiration board - Moroccan

I think one of the most stunning wedding themes is going Moroccan. It's often characterized by rich colors like shades of red, purple, blues, and orange, and often is a combination of those hues. Patterns are intricate yet festive, with inspirations from Arabic and Asian cultures. I would say having a Moroccan wedding theme is all about the details, from the decor to the invitations to favors.

While going for a Moroccan theme for your wedding would entail coordinating the details, it's not that hard. To start off, you could browse for pictures of Morocco and try recreating the look with what's available in the market. I've made an inspiration board for a Moroccan wedding theme, and I hope this will help get you started:

Inspiration board - Christmas

December is a month of merriment. Here in the Philippines, it's also the month when so many weddings are held (compared to June). That's why I chose to make an inspiration board revolving around this theme.

I used the festive colors of red and green, as opposed to the winter-y white Christmas. I think its a very lively color combination, and when done right, it truly evokes a sense of cheer. Hope you like it.

Inspiration board - Valentine

Well, it's February, officially the month of hearts. And Valentine's Day is just around the corner. So I looked around the Net for some valentine inspirations for weddings themed as such. Your wedding doesn't have to fall on the month of Love to qualify as a Valentine Wedding -- you can always make any day Valentine's Day, in my opinion.

Of course, the common color scheme here is red, pink and white. Lots of hearts, too. Hope you like it!
