Army Brats Unite!  Putting Together a Camouflage Wedding Theme

Are you looking for an unconventional theme for your wedding? Why don’t you go for a camouflage wedding? Since camouflage is no longer limited for use in the military or hunting, there are countless of camouflage wedding ideas that you can use for your big day. Here are the steps to undertake in putting together a camouflage themed wedding.

Shop online

It may be a challenge to find camouflage related items in the traditional market. The same cannot be said for the online market, which offers a wide range of products including those that are usually hard to find. Camouflage-trimmed wedding gowns and camouflage accessories such as guest books, ring bearer pillows, and tablecloths can be purchased in online specialty bridal shops.

Make a list

Make a list of everything that you need to buy or create. From the ceremony items such as unity candles, pew decorations, and aisle runners to the reception items like the table centerpiece, buffet décor, reception décor, stationery items and so on—you need to make a list of everything. If you’re not able to find something in camouflage theme, then you can personalize it so it would complement the theme. For example, if all you can find is a traditional guest book, you may cover it with camouflage wrapping paper.

Inform vendors and suppliers

See to it that you inform vendors and suppliers about the theme that you’re planning to have. Why is this important? For one, you don’t want to shock them when they enter a venue that doesn’t seem to be a far cry from a military outpost. Second, you want them to be in line with the theme. For example, the florist may use camouflage-patterned containers for the floral arrangements.
