Red.
It sounds beautiful! I would go with a navy umbrella or a tan. You could even do a light cream for contrast. However, having had many, many umbrellas over the years I can tell you that unless the navy is a Sunbrella fabric it will fade and the lighter tan will get stained if it's under a tree. So you may want to keep that in mind when choosing.
I suggest a bright, happy solid yellow....maybe with white stripes.
The daker colors will likely fade more quickly and not be as striking as yellow.
I would do a white or cream umbrella
I would go with a print that had both blue and tan in it. Have fun.
Hi Tina: I bought a hunter green swing cover from Walmart. The company was Camel something or other. Before 2 months were up it turned gold! Faded like mad. They did give me a refund, but geeze! I should paint it, but I think I can live with the gold. I might just make another one. But, I think whatever brand you buy, it will fade in the sun. I'd get a tan umbrella just to keep from being disappointed when it fades :) Good luck
Here are a couple of links comparing the different fabrics that umbrellas can be made out of, and how they might effect the durability.

Go with something patterned that has a bit of blue & brown/tan as well as other colors.
I think a tan that will match the cushions would be great!
Beige would work well
Tan blue. And brown if you could find one that color big y usually caries ones like that that would tie all together
White, a shade that will compliment the color of the wicker or navy. Or go bold with a big pop of color.
Hi,
Navy Blue if you can get it, or a very bright coloured one with lots of colour in in.
