Camo-themed wedding
Filed under: Fashion, Alternative Weddings
I grew up in a small town in Michigan where, on November 15 (first day of hunting season) a good 50% of the guys in high school skipped class to try to bring home the season's first buck. My dad owned a store selling hunting and fishing gear. At one point, I even owned a pair of camouflage boots (What? Olive green was hot in the early 90's!).And so, when I saw this picture, I took a long, hard look to make sure I didn't actually know anyone in the wedding party. I didn't. Turns out the wedding occurred somewhere "on the bayou", according to Never teh Bride at Manolo Brides, which is where I picked up this gem.
Well. Okay. I'm all for the theme wedding, and I love unique ideas, but this ... well, I just can't get on board. I give them points for effort, to be sure, and to be honest, it looks like everyone is into it, so who am I to judge? However, should I ever be invited to a wedding requiring I dress in camo, well ... oh, who am I kidding? Nobody who would invite me to their wedding would choose this theme and expect me to participate!
But what do you guys think? Creative? Unique? Terrible? Awesome?
What's in a name?

If I say whatever makes you happy for your wedding, does that mean I have gone over to the dark side. And altho this would not be my choice, nor would I probably be invited either, they all seem pretty happy to be there...

To each his own. It's not to my taste, but so what? It's not my wedding and they're not inviting me -- and, as Rae points out, they seem to be having fun.
Whatever floats your boat.
