Best Answer

Vestments are considered a sacrament and are blessed by the Church to elicit good feelings and devotion. Gold garments are special festival colors meant for joyous celebrations. Generally, they are used during Christmas and Easter, the holiest Christian holidays. They may also be worn during weddings, ordinations, confirmations and baptisms.
