Winter Wedding Inspiration in Midnight Blue & Gold
Different shades of blue evoke different moods for weddings, as our posts here, here and here show. But this deep, dark blue is the perfect foil for gilded accents like these we found.
Flaunt your sapphire engagement ring (4) and begin the wedding planning! Start by announcing your upcoming nuptials with a show-stopping invitation suite (8) printed in gold on dark blue cardstock, then encased in an intricately laser-cut sleeve. Guests are certain to know they’re in for an elegant affair!
At the ceremony, have stylish programs (6) inscribed with your monogram awaiting guests at the entrance, or placed on their seats. Then, complete your wedding ensemble with a bridal bouquet (2) wrapped in satin or velvet ribbon trimmed with gold.
As guests make their way to the reception, have a welcome table set up with an ornate framed sign (7). Continue the rich color palette to the place settings (1) using gold plate chargers lined with blue thank-you messages from you, the newlyweds. Or these could present the reception menu to be served.
And yes, even your wedding cake (3) can be a vision in deep ombre blue adorned with a single white blossom and gold accents, including a ruffled base. To be echoed by the wedding favors (5) you’ll give guests—“surprise!” blue macarons topped with flecks of edible gold leaf.
Now, how gorgeous is that? If you’ve used a similar palette for your wedding or are now planning your own nuptials, let us know your thoughts on this luxe color duo of Midnight Blue + Gold!
