Blue and gold wedding?

Since my FH is Swedish, I want to incorprate a lot of Swedish elements into the wedding…and I got kinda hooked on having the color scheme be the colors of Sweden, blue and gold. I was thinking of a nice rich blue and the gold would be nice with the flowers I want to highlight, sunflowers. Has anyone seen a good wedding design with these colors?

Thanks for all your help ladies—I’m brand new here and loving it!

Mine was navy and yellow (and ivory), not exactly blue and gold:

But I think it turned out well. I didn't go crazy with the color theming, though. I really wanted pale yellow, but it was impossible to get pale yellow roses, so they ended up being that bright color, which I did like.

Good luck! Sounds like it will be lovely, and different. So many weddings choose the same colors without realizing they're fashionable.

Check on the knot.com. You can search for weddings based on color. Good luck.

Thanks! I thought I had found all the info I could on Swedish wedding traditions, but I never saw the second webpage you listed. I can't wait for my reception in Sweden with all the crazy drinking songs!
