The camouflage wedding theme doesn't happen much in the big cities. Camouflage is a
newer wedding theme favored by hunters. I originally believed it to be an off shoot of
military weddings, but I was corrected by a bride using this as her theme. According to her,
she and her fiance are avid hunters and they decided to make it their wedding theme.
To the best of my knowledge, there aren't any major wedding gown companies making
camouflage wedding dresses. The camo wedding dresses are custom, but the wedding
dress with the green top is by Justin Alexander.
The bridesmaid dresses are by Mori Lee and Winnie Couture.
A word of caution: a bit of camo goes a long way and can get too busy in your
photographs. There are a lot of camo prints. Don't blend camo prints, it won't work. Stick to
one pattern of camo and go with it and use colors that compliment the print you've chosen.
Use solid colors that compliment the camouflage print or it will get overwhelming. Use rust,
orange, browns and olives to compliment the camo. Accent with citrus colors: lemon
yellow, lime green, orange from light to deep. Plan the color palette so that the camo is a
backdrop and the colors set it off.
There are camo garters and guest books, camouflage tuxedo vests for the men and I even
found a web site that has patterns to make camo kilts for men. The web has a lot of sites
that sell camouflage for the wedding, so obviously people are using this as their theme.
The shoes below are just amazing, LOVE THEM! The cute schnauzer is the flower dog,
wearing a camo outfit. OK, so I'm a shoe freak who has a schnauzer, but I'd totally wear
the shoes with brown or olive to work.
A burning question: If the bride and groom wear camo in the woods for their wedding, can
you see them? Hmmm.
Use the pictures below to get ideas to put together your camouflage theme. Happy hunting!
