Keep reading for everything to know about throwing a rose gold wedding (plus some gorgeous inspiration).

What color is rose gold?

Rose gold is a dark shade of pink with warm golden undertones. Rose gold is an alloy (a metal created by mixing two different elements) made from copper and yellow gold. It can vary from extremely pink to slightly more brown, depending on the amount of copper that is used.

What does rose gold symbolize?

Rose gold is often associated with vintage and romantic styles, especially when it comes to engagement rings (Lauren Conrad and Blake Lively both wear rose gold rings). Its pink hue makes rose gold feel very feminine and sophisticated, but it can also look edgy and trendy when paired with black or silver accents. For the ultimate pink engagement ring, look for a morganite stone in a rose gold setting. If you're considering rose gold for your engagement ring or other wedding jewelry, you'll be glad to know that it's a fairly durable metal—even more durable than yellow gold. The copper element in rose gold makes it less likely to bend or scratch with everyday wear.

What color flowers go with rose gold?

Since rose gold is such a statement color, it doesn't need much else to shine! White, blush, light blue, burgundy, and purple flowers are all complementary options, along with greenery, which is a beautiful addition to any rose gold wedding.

What colors go with rose gold for a wedding?

Jewel tones and pastels are two popular color palette options for rose gold wedding decor. In general, most colors will look great when paired with rose gold, except for those that are very similar in tone, such as orange and yellow. If you're planning to use either of these colors for your rose gold wedding, we recommend incorporating another accent color, like white or blush, to prevent the palette from looking too monochromatic.

Rose gold wedding invitations

Your wedding invitations are one of the first wedding details your guests will see, and they're the perfect opportunity to provide a little sneak peek of your color palette. Adorn your stationery suite with metallic rose gold foil on the envelopes, RSVP cards, menu, or all of the above!

If you're treating your bridesmaids to curated gift boxes, you can match them to your wedding theme by including some rose gold items. Wine tumblers, sunglasses, and jewelry are just a few options (check out the WeddingWire Shop for even more ideas).

Rose gold bridesmaid dresses

Rose gold sequined gowns are a fan favorite for glam bridesmaids. And if you're feeling particularly fashionable as the bride, why not ditch the traditional white dress in favor of a rose-hued style instead?

Rose gold wedding bands

We're pretty sure rose gold wedding bands are here for the long haul, but mixing metals is an option, too. Don't be shy about pairing platinum silver and rose gold pieces together—the end result is gorgeous.

Velvet engagement ring box

You need a safe place to store your engagement ring or wedding band whenever you're not wearing it, so you might as well find a stylish box that you'll love looking at all the time. A rosy velvet keepsake box looks pretty in wedding flat lay photos and long after the big day.

Wedding day perfume

When your wedding day perfume looks as pretty as it smells, is there anything better? This rosy pink bottle (complete with a dainty bow) is a timeless choice.

Rose gold letter balloons

Not only are these letter balloons a fun wedding photo prop, they're also an easy way to add rose gold into your decor. Spelling "bride to be" is an option for a bachelorette party or bridal shower, but for your wedding, you could display your date, hashtag, or other welcoming phrase.

If signage is playing a big role in your wedding decor, finish the look with a rose gold frame and a touch of fresh greenery.

For a fall wedding, spruce up your reception place settings by completing them with painted rose gold leaves. You can write guests' names on the leaves to create seasonal place cards, but we think they look just as pretty without any calligraphy.

Laser-cut wedding place cards

These ultra-chic place cards are a gorgeous option if you're looking to take your rose gold wedding to the next level, or if you want to bring a highly-personalized element to an intimate wedding reception.

Copper pipe wedding backdrop

Since copper and rose gold look so similar and color, we say go ahead and incorporate both into your rose gold wedding decor. A copper pipe structure can be personalized with flowers and greenery to match your specific wedding vision—ask your venue or check local event rental companies to find one. The end result is an industrial chic wedding look.

Wedding reception chairs

While many wedding venues offer chairs, it can be fun to play around with decorative wedding chair options to give your wedding a unique look, such as these rose gold metal chairs. Costs can add up depending on the types of chairs you rent and how many you need, so consider renting special chairs for just you and your spouse if you're looking for ways to save.
