Flowers for a navy and gold palette
Navy and Gold share no single bloom, so each color brings its own and the contrast carries the arrangements.
What navy brings
- DelphiniumNavy
Delphinium is available year-round through greenhouse and import stems, with a summer field peak; it and its cousin larkspur hold their color well when dried.
- HydrangeaNavy
Hydrangea is available year-round through greenhouse and import stems for a full blue-to-mauve mass; it dries well, and antique dried heads carry the dusty tones.
What gold brings
- Garden roseGold
Roses are the one wedding staple truly available every month, grown year-round in Colombia and Ecuador; field-grown garden varieties peak late spring through fall, so off-season garden roses lean on imports.
- RanunculusGold
Field ranunculus peaks late winter through spring; imported and greenhouse stems stretch it wider, at a higher off-season price.
The metal for navy and gold
Navy's own page names gold as one metal option among two, so the pair has to make gold co-equal rather than an accent: an antique-gold field across the chargers and the arch frame, so this is the two-color palette, not the navy page with gold added.
This palette finishes in gold.
When navy and gold works best
A formal ballroom, black-tie, or New Year evening wedding.
Who wears what in a navy and gold palette
Navy suits and gold-sequin dresses, gold worn as a field color rather than kept to the cutlery.
- Lead
- navy groomsmen suits
- Supporting
