Want to throw a fancy party? Gold party supplies will make your guests feel distinguished while adding a classy look to your party. 

There are so many ways to add gold to a party. We’ve put together some ideas to help you integrate the shiny beauty gold can offer your party.

What Colors Go Well with Gold?

If you want gold to be more of an accent color, consider these classic color pairs.

• Black and white or grey and white
• Blue
• Pink
• Green
• Purple
• Turquoise and red

How you pair gold with another color will set the tone for your party and will speak somewhat to your party’s theme. For example, you might mix pink and gold for a soft look for a baby shower. Or you might accent black and white with gold for a sophisticated office party.

Want a softer look? Consider how to add instant party glamor with rose gold party supplies.

Gold Party Supplies Ideas for Your Next Party

Ready to start planning a party that uses gold as a primary or accent color? Here’s a roundup of some fun ways to incorporate these shiny party decorations.

1. Use Number Candles for Birthday Parties

These gold number candles in 0-9 offer a fun way to celebrate a birthday party. Perhaps your cake is decorated in one of the above listed primary colors and you just want gold to be a nice accent for your cake. This is a great way to celebrate a sophisticated landmark birthday, such as 30 or even 90. They’ll add class to any cake.

2. Add Gold Cake Numbers

Not interested in using candles on your birthday cake? No problem! Just use these gold cake topper numbers. The guest of honor won’t have to be pressured into blowing out the candles or enduring people singing “Happy Birthday” if they don’t want to. 

Another option is to top a standard cake with this LED Star Happy Birthday Cake Topper. That way, you don’t have to special order your cake but you’ll still have a fancy, themed cake for any party.

4. Use Gold Cutlery

The gold-trimmed plates will go perfectly with your gold cutlery. It’s a great price for 50 plates and you’ll get both dinner plates and cake plates so you only have to order one set and you’re ready for your fancy party.

6. Create the Perfect Backdrop for Photos

Buy a metallic sequin backdrop/table cover to make an ideal photo location. You can use the backdrop to create a makeshift photo booth where guests can take photos with their guests. The backdrop is 4-foot by 8-foot but it should be enough for small groups of 2-3 people to take photos with a classy backdrop.

7. Get Gold Balloons for Birthday Parties

This 34-inch Mylar Balloon Set spells out “HBD” or the abbreviation for happy birthday. You can get it in gold, silver or rose gold to match your party design and unique needs. Add it to your sequined backdrop and you have the perfect photo booth. But you might not want both to be in gold because they’ll blend too much. Consider purchasing the balloons in silver to go with the gold backdrop for outstanding photos.

8. Hang This Acrylic Gold Happy Birthday Sign

This 15-inch acrylic happy birthday sign is ready for you to just unwrap and hang. It’s an instant party decoration that will look great as part of a centerpiece or wall decoration. Create a wall collage using the sign and some balloons for a makeshift photo booth.

This is a creative way to incorporate balloons into your party but without having them just floating in a bunch. This 3-pack of HBD balloon blocks frees you up to place balloons of any color inside and stack them to make a focal point in your party room. The blocks are available in both gold and silver.

10. Use Gold Balloon Banners to Set the Tone
