Every girl wants her own unique and memorable bouquet that will suit her and bring good luck. The bride's bouquet in white and gold adds uniqueness and luxury to the image and creates a special mood.
The combination of classic white and gold colors in a wedding composition highlights the youth, sophistication and elegance of the bride. The girl looks gorgeous in wedding photographs. By the way, read here how to choose a good photographer.
Image of a girl
The bride's dress must be long, perhaps with a train, made from expensive fabric. The color can be beige, gold or classic white. A beige or white dress should have golden elements, this could be a belt, inserts or patterns on the dress, a bodice embroidered with sequins or gold beads. A veil with golden lace, hairpins or tiaras of golden color are suitable as accessories. Instead of a veil, you can wear a hat with gold feathers.
If the choice fell on a gold dress, then you should select the shade based on the type of appearance of the bride. A rich shade is suitable for girls with dark skin and dark hair, and a light golden shade should be chosen by girls with fair skin and blond hair.
In a dress made of gold brocade or with sequins, the bride will look like a true queen. A dress with embroidery or rhinestones will add glamor and chic. You shouldn’t overload your look with gold accessories; just choose shoes that match the color of the dress and small jewelry, such as stud earrings, a chain and a ring. Makeup is best done in calm, warm beige or peach tones, focusing on the eyes.
Invitations
Gold embossing on the snow-white invitation card gives it a truly royal charm.
The execution of individual elements in yellow tones without the shine of metal will reduce formality and add cheerfulness and optimism to the address.
Images, photos or simply silhouettes of the newlyweds on a postcard in a gold frame look like the first family portrait.
Envelopes folded in the form of full-weight ingots or rolled into a roll with an elegant sling look interesting.
Choosing flowers
To create a wedding composition, you need to use white or beige flowers, as an addition - golden decorative elements. As a classic option, many brides choose roses, but other flowers look no less beautiful. These could be, for example, lilies, orchids, chrysanthemums, callas, gardenias.
The choice of flowers can be determined not only by their external beauty, but also based on their symbolism, because each flower in a bouquet has its own meaning:
- white rose - symbolizes love, fidelity, desire;
- white chrysanthemum - symbolizes the sincerity of feelings;
- orchid is a symbol of luxury, sophistication and aristocracy;
- lily - symbolizes tenderness and immaculate purity;
- calla lilies are a symbol of beauty and grace, an expression of admiration and admiration for the bride;
- gardenia is a symbol of joy, purity and grace.
A bride's bouquet in a golden style can be made up of different types of white and beige flowers, decorating it with golden braid and decorative gold elements (beads, ribbons), you can add gilded leaves or wheat ears and even pine cones to the composition, if it looks appropriate in the overall theme holiday.
Compositions can be made from one type of flowers, the so-called mono-bouquet, in which only flowers of two shades are used without additional decorations.
Groom style
The groom's image should look harmonious next to the bride. To do this, he puts on a black or white suit made of shiny fabric.
The shirt is also white, but other accessories (cufflinks, bow tie/tie, pocket square, tie clip, boutonniere, watch) reflect the color theme of the wedding. A golden vest with embroidery looks original.
If there is a themed wedding of a certain era, then the aristocratic costume can be complemented with a hat and cane.

A mono-bouquet can be composed of roses or calla lilies in white and gold. Since these flowers do not have a natural golden hue, they can be made in two ways:
- paint the buds with a special golden-colored floral paint;
- use artificial flowers in combination with fresh flowers.
Only white callas can be used in the composition, but then gilded leaves must be placed between the flowers. If desired, a gold-colored bride's bouquet can be made from fabric, paper or beads.
Combination options
Flower buds cannot be a natural golden color, so the bride's bouquet can be composed in two versions. Firstly, you can paint the white inflorescences with a special gold-colored floral paint. However, it should be borne in mind that painted buds will not remain fresh for as long as regular ones. Secondly, you can use artificial gold-colored materials in combination with or without fresh flowers.
Painted roses
Roses are considered classic flowers for a bride's bouquet, as they symbolize love, youth, beauty and passion. In addition, the rose is called the queen of flowers; it is considered a symbol of nobility and aristocracy. Many beautiful legends and traditions are associated with this flower; in all cultures, exclusively positive meaning is attributed to it.
You can make a wedding bouquet using only painted gold roses or combine these flowers with other elements. Often girls choose a combination of the queen of flowers with orchids or peonies of suitable shades; the compositions can be decorated with sprigs of white gypsophila. In addition, there is a variant of a mono-bouquet of roses, in which a combination of gold and white buds is used, and other elements and decorations are not used.
You can complement the composition with painted gifts of nature - pine cones, twigs, berries, and in autumn - dry leaves.
Painted calla lilies
Modern brides often choose this flower to create their floral arrangement. In addition to its attractive appearance, this plant is distinguished by its high resistance to hot weather, strong stems, and ease of arranging a bouquet. Callas are considered a symbol of perfection and purity, so they are suitable for composing a composition.
This flower is designed extremely simply: a single petal envelops, like a blanket, a yellow “candle” in the middle, but despite this, the calla lily is an image of beauty and femininity. This flower does not like unnecessary elements, so you should not weigh down your wedding bouquet with other plants and additional decorations. You can create a mono-composition only from painted gold callas or combine them with white ones. It is also possible to install several long and narrow leaves painted in gold between the flowers.
Satin ribbons
Modern girls have begun to quite often choose artificial wedding compositions, which are in no way inferior to real ones. On the contrary, in some ways they give natural combinations a head start. Firstly, such a wedding bouquet will never wither; it can be kept in the family for many years. Secondly, it is durable and will maintain its original appearance throughout the wedding. Thirdly, artificial flowers do not smell, as a result of which they cannot cause headaches or allergy attacks in the bride or guests. Fourthly, you can make such an arrangement yourself; it will be much more economical than the services of a professional florist.
You can make a wedding bouquet of satin roses, chrysanthemums and other flowers, everything will depend on the imagination of the bride herself. There are different techniques for making artificial buds, ranging from the simplest to the most difficult to master techniques, which, however, any girl can master if desired. You can complement satin flowers with beads and other decorative elements.
Brooch bouquet
Another fashion trend in recent seasons is the composition of a wedding bouquet from brooches, this is especially true for a golden-colored composition. You can choose a wide variety of combinations of gold-plated jewelry; the bride can give free rein to her imagination. Such a bouquet can be made in the form of a sphere or hemisphere; brooches can be complemented with beads, bows, ribbons and other elements.
Such a composition can be mounted on a self-made portaquet holder, the handle of which is decorated with wide ribbons or lace of gold and a similar shade. The brooch-bouquet is suitable for both a classic wedding ceremony and a celebration in a vintage or retro style.
Beaded flowers
Artificial flowers can be made from beads in gold color; such compositions will look very unusual, delicate and shiny. You can make artificial buds yourself or entrust this task to a professional; the choice will depend on the bride herself. There are different options for composing inflorescences; using beads and wire you can create almost any flower.
Depending on the girl’s capabilities and free time, she can create both a miniature and a curvy combination. There are also no restrictions on the shape; it can be round, hemispherical, spherical, cascading and even fan-shaped. To secure the flowers, you need to use a porta bouquet or a wire frame.

The choice of a wedding bouquet for the bride should begin only after the choice of dress has been made and the style of the future holiday has been determined, so that everything is in harmony with each other and is in the same style.
Attention! It is better to entrust the preparation of a bride's bouquet in gold to professional florists, since such a combination of colors requires a responsible approach.
If you make the bouquet yourself, you should follow the following tips.
- The bouquet should be in harmony with the bride's dress, accessories, decorations, as well as with the overall design and style of the wedding. It is important that the bride's flowers match the groom's boutonniere.

Color meaning
Before choosing one or another shade to decorate the bride’s image for a wedding, you need to find out the meaning of the color, since not all of them are suitable for such a celebration. Different cultures may have different shade symbolism, so you need to take into account all interpretations in order to choose the best option for yourself.
The golden hue has always been considered a symbol of grace, noble blood and rich decoration; it is not for nothing that the interior of many emperors and kings was made in gold in combination with other colors. Gold is a noble metal that many girls like; thanks to its shine and bright tints, it suits both very young brides and mature ladies.
In terms of its symbolism, this shade is ambiguous, since it has contradictory meanings in different cultures, but for the most part it still evokes positive associations. There are the following interpretations of this color:
- in Ancient Egypt - a symbol of the god Ra - the supreme deity, patron of sunlight and warmth;
- in Indonesia - truth and enlightenment;
- in Ancient Greece - immortality and higher intelligence;
- in Indochina - enlightenment;
- in Renaissance countries - longevity, carefree life, absence of suffering, freedom from work and bliss;
- Masons have purity and nobility of motives.
Today, the golden hue is considered the personification of the sun, along with yellow, it symbolizes warmth, radiance, wisdom, divine beauty, glory and victory. There is also a negative meaning - sadness and martyrdom, but it is taken into account extremely rarely. In general, a gold-colored wedding bouquet is suitable for a wedding, since it does not burden the bride’s image and at the same time makes her irresistible.
Dress code
The theme of the wedding is most evident in the bridesmaids' outfits, but they don't have to be transformed into golden statues.
For this, fabrics with gold sequins and a cream base are enough.
The same approach applies to the suits of the groomsmen. They should choose the same gold accessories as distinctive details.
You can have a truly white and gold wedding according to the scenario of a royal masquerade ball with all the necessary attributes: golden masks, brooches, boutonnieres for guests, crowns, a carriage, wands for the newlyweds.
How to dress wedding guests in a golden style
There is no need to force all guests to come in gold-colored clothing. Many people may simply be embarrassed to wear something sparkling, while others may simply not like it. You can simply ask that the emphasis in the outfit be on one gold detail: a tie, brooch, hairpin, bolero, belt, shirt, etc. If the bride wants her bridesmaids to come to the wedding in gold, then perhaps you should give them the opportunity choose the shade and style yourself. After all, gold is a very demanding color. Plus, he makes you look fat. It might be better to choose beige with gold trim.
Decoration of a wedding hall in gold color
Let's start preparing the wedding decorations! Golden color is capricious and demanding. The most important thing when decorating such a wedding is to choose a single stylistic solution. There can be either few or many details, but the most important thing is that they must be combined. One single “lost” part can ruin everything. That is, if the dishes are luxurious, royal, then the furniture should be the same, and the vases on the tables, and the tablecloth, and the curtains. If you decide to choose a laconic, noble style, everything should match. Candles and white roses go very well with this style. In general, it is better to combine gold with some color. Ideally it is white, but ivory, beige, brown, and black are acceptable. Candles will add coziness and warmth to the celebration. You can use matte gold, bright metallic gold, and sparkling gold sequins.
And, of course, don't forget about the luxurious golden cake.
