Navy Blue & Friends
Certainly navy looks terrific with white or cream, but for your wedding, get a little more creative. Consider pairing navy with tangerine, turquoise or lime for spring or summer weddings. For fall and winter affairs, navy with burnt orange, silver, or chocolate brown looks stunning.

Late Night Blue
For evening, navy blue partnered with other deep shades of blue and purple can provide dramatic impact.
 
Blue Flowers

Delphiniums come in all shades of blue and can be just the perfect flower for your navy wedding. You can also have hydrangeas, lilies and other flowers dyed navy blue to match your wedding colors. If you aren’t sold on blue flowers, select flowers in your secondary color instead and limit the amount of greenery in your bouquets and centerpieces (unless green is your complementary color).
 
Navy Cake
For your wedding cake, you can select a traditional white cake accented with navy trim or blue flowers.

Or for more drama, you can select a cake that is iced in navy blue frosting. Keep in mind that a dark cake may not photograph that well unless the lighting is very good and the backdrop is simple.
And… here is another idea palette (from the finestationery.com blog that should provide some inspiration for navy choices.)
 
From the above, we have seen plenty of options when creating a navy blue wedding. That is wonderful, everything blue! As to the fall birdesmaid dresses color suggestions, please refer to my post FALL BRIDEAMID DRESSES.
