how to style your moroccan wedding blanket

Moroccan wedding blankets are the most luxurious mix of texture, shine, culture and symbolism you could have in your hands. They were traditionally worn by the berber bride on her wedding day but today they are a true object of beauty, desired by every bohemian home to inject interest to a space while maintaining a subdued palette.   I use to show you my wedding blankets as bedspreads or blankets. However, I adore them as wallhangings, rugs, pillows or as sofa throws like in this terrific living room. They will transform your bedroom, old sofa, ottoman or even bare floor into something magical! It’s no secret that I’m thrilled that this trend is sticking around!

the story behind moroccan wedding blankets

If you know me well, maybe you have heard me say many times the word handira and surely I already told you this story, but there it goes again.

Handiras were made by female relatives during the weeks prior to the wedding day to share their fears and confidences. Thousands of sequins were hand sewn in such a tender and intimate atmosphere. Handiras are also a symbol of happiness, fertility and protection against the evil. I love having one or two handira pillows at home, they are my amulet, a piece of well-being. Today I would...

the perfect intimate wedding

I love small weddings! Especially when they are as beautiful as this one! Marius and Garazi were married with just their closest family and best friend present in a beautiful natural environment on the edge of the Mediterranean Sea. The couple besides being beautiful, they have a wonderful story to tell. Both are actors and dancers and they met while waiting for a casting. There the spark came up but it was not until both were selected for the same work where the love was born. For their wedding day they chose a Mediterranean  decoration based on natural materials such as wood, linen, pottery, white flowers and many cacti. For the altar area they chose a precious vintage handira. An old piece...
