Top 10 Champagne Wedding Color Combination Ideas

Champagne is associated with joyful celebrations, and there are few celebrations that are as joyful as a wedding! Not only do many brides and grooms keep plenty of bottles of bubbly on hand the day-of, but many couples also look to its effervescent shade when deciding on a color palette.

Champagne is a great alternative to traditional bridal white, as it complements every skin tone. And because it’s a neutral, it looks great when paired with a wide range of colors.

Here are our top ten champagne color palette combinations for 2023 and beyond.

Navy Blue

Navy blue is a favorite among brides and grooms. It’s a stunning choice for fall and winter weddings when paired with shades like burgundy and emerald, but this color can look gorgeous in the spring and summer when you pair navy blue with champagne wedding colors.

Navy suits are a favorite choice with bridesmaids wearing shimmering champagne, but you can turn this idea on its head by having groomsmen wear linen suits and bridesmaids wear navy dresses. Use navy to provide pops of color, like creamy-colored roses in a navy compote bowl and dark blue charger plates scattered among a champagne-colored table runner.

Dusty Blue

If you love the idea of using blue, but you aren’t in love with using a dark shade like navy, lighten things up with dusty blue!

This color combination is a fresh way to decorate a winter wedding, but it also lends itself well to springtime celebrations and ocean-side fêtes. Dusty blue cheesecloth is a great choice for a laid back, rustic wedding, while cloud glass charger plates can give your waterside wedding a sea glass look.

Berry

Berry is a shapeshifting wedding color. It can go from spring to summer and winter to fall, all depending on the colors you pair it with. When it comes to champagne and berry wedding colors, you don’t have to pick a season. Choose your décor carefully and this color combo looks gorgeous all year long.

Embrace the snow and decorate with birch centerpieces at a winter wedding, incorporate fresh crème and peonies in the spring, and raspberries, cherries, and boysenberries in the summer. In the fall, let vibrant leaves be your backdrop with amaranth and mums in floral arrangements.

Dusty Rose Boutonniere with a Cream-Colored Rose: The Perfect Palette, Bridal Bouquet With Dusty Pink Roses and Protea: Wedding Forward, Desert Rose Color Palette: Pantone Connect

Desert Rose

Unlike shades of pink that are overly girly, shades of desert rose are a bit more mysterious and friendly to all genders. It looks stunning at a desert wedding, but its rosy, neutral hues are beautiful at garden weddings, castle weddings, and even industrial weddings.

If you're going for a boho look, incorporate dried florals, like bunny tails. Roses are an obvious choice, but they aren’t the only choice. Carnations, hydrangea, and even protea can provide your centerpieces and bouquets with an unexpected twist.

Chocolate Brown

Brown was not a popular wedding color in the past, but that’s changing in 2023! Chocolatey shades of brown add an earthy depth to a wide range of color palettes, which includes champagne wedding colors.

Pampas grass is a popular choice at boho weddings, but this color palette can morph to suit any wedding theme. Lace is a great choice for couples searching for an antique look, faux wood charger plates are a great choice for rustic weddings, and brown bottles and hobnail glasses are right at home at a pub reception.

Metallics

Metallics are great accent colors, but they can also be the star of the show. Mix shades of gold, silver, brass, and copper with champagne to create a dynamic, shimmering look on your wedding day.

Keep things interesting by choosing metallic details that will surprise your guests. For example, they will expect your silverware to be silver, so opt for gold silverware instead. Choose patterned metallic tablecloths, include gold leaf on desserts, and serve alcoholic beverages in copper mugs.

Terracotta

Another one of our favorite champagne wedding color combination ideas involves pairing these bubbly shades with terracotta.

Chiffon table runners provide the perfect backdrop to terracotta bud vases filled with florals. Terracotta-colored flowers—dahlias in the summer, mums in the fall, and roses all year long—look stunning in flower arrangements. Bridesmaids can wear terracotta dresses, but you can surprise guests by choosing champagne for your girls and having the groomsmen wear terracotta-colored suits.

Goldenrod

If you like the idea of incorporating brighter colors into your wedding day, but you don’t want to go too bright, consider a champagne wedding color scheme with shades of goldenrod yellow.

The trick is to achieve a combination of champagne and yellow colors that works for you. Lean into a brighter wedding with bouquets of yellow flowers, yellow velvet bridesmaids dresses, and incorporate yellow fruit, like pears. If you want to mellow out your goldenrod color palette, provide pops of yellow amongst rattan lanterns, neutral tablecloths, and vintage champagne colored drinking glasses.

Moss

If you’re planning a forest wedding, or you simply want to go green—literally—with an earthy wedding, combine shades of champagne with moss green.

Moss can be incorporated into your décor by placing Marimo balls in bowls of water or including moss balls in table décor. Greenhouse weddings with potted plants are perfect for this color scheme, as are retro weddings with green ribbed glass candle holders and mid-century modern details.
