There is no color that glitters like gold, so we've put together a collection of gold wedding ideas that you can use to create a look that shines with personality. Known for its symbolism denoting luxury, generosity, triumph and fortune, gold adds opulance and can be used in numerous brilliant ways throughout your wedding day.

To start with, wedding dresses don’t have to be all white. In fact, they look wonderful with golden threads and fabrics. Obviously this bride had a great time wearing her appliqued dress …

and this one looks stunning in her chic metallic bodice ...

Try wearing a veil with golden sequins and a golden belt to add a bit of magic to your fashion.

Then choose shoes with gold rhinestones and satin heels to finish your look.

Coordinate your style with your bridal party, and let them wear silky golden gown and shimmer in photos as they catch the light. No doubt, they will thank you for it.

Of course, golden rings are worn all over the world and are the most popular option for wedding bands. 

While extravagant golden jewelry is worn with elegance by Muslim and Hindu brides as well. 

Of course, gold wedding ideas don't just apply to fashion and the color can be incorporated right from the start by bringing a bit of gold to your invitations. Use a shiny gold wax seal or use a golden die-cut design to make a beautiful first impression.

Decorate your cake with gold ribbon or icing. Gold leaf can be wrapped around fondant, gold flakes can be applied to buttercream, and gold candies can be used on any type of frosting.

Display your cake on a golden pedestal, and look for cake toppers and decorations that gleam.

Serve dessert on golden plates or use golden silverware. 

Seat your guests on golden chairs. From classic chiavari chairs to specialty chairs with golden accents, rental companies have numerous options for adding gold to your seating arrangements.

And finally, light your venue with golden lights that flicker on the dance floor way you dance the night away!
