Wedding Inspiration: Golden Glow

There’s something about the color gold that makes everything feel instantly chic, warm, and sophisticated all at the same time, so it’s no surprise that gold has become a go-to wedding color for brides. Here are some of our favorite ways to give your nuptials that golden glow.

Gold Color Palette

Striking gold is best paired with muted tones. Shades of grey, white, and tan are our favorites!
