Camouflage Weddings
January 19, 2009Look out! There’s a raccoon behind you!
This one is kind of pretty, by Erkia Sarkozi
This is a wedding invitation, in case you were wondering:

Um, your wedding cake is staring at me.
Hey, wedding or prom, there’s still no excuse!
Yikes
Does there really need to be a severed deer foot cake knife holder?
Oh. My. God.
That veil is THE WORST!
Do you ppl not have anything better to do than judge others.I agree these weddings are not my style but they ment a lot to these people. Are you all so unhappy with your selves that you must make fun of others. YOU ARE ALL TERRIBLE PEOPLE.
Oh jeezus. The drippy-poop-looking-cake is so nasty. And there’s more than one!!! Why, people, WHY?
Oh, no. Where to start. I am speechless. The cakes, the veil, the revealing camo dress on Daisy Duke (the best looking women in the photos), the cake toppers, the decor. I never thought I would say this…bring on the clown weddings.
Some of these pictures are from the American Cable TV channel CMT show “My Big Redneck Wedding.” If you think these are bad you should see the episode where the couple got married at the demolition derby. Mud, big trucks and the bride wearing combat boots. Yeesh!

In one of the new episopes the couple rides away in a camouflage limo.
Hey I was proposed to at the demo derby, its the best sport in the world. if i could id get married at one too
Hey, to each their own.
At least they all look like they’re having fun and not trying to outdo each other with lots of bling.
Personally, I’m sick of all the con$picuous con$umption around weddings and I think a break from the $100,000 red carpet wedding is a nice change.
Camo weddings are big around here, because the whole hunting culture is such an integral part of peoples lives. Let them have a wedding that reflects who they are. My son wore a camo tux to prom, and his date had a matching dress. (and a limo? heck no, a 4×4 truck!)
where did they find the tux and dress at . . cause that is wat me and my date want to wear mto my senior prom this year . . . plaese let me know thank you
this is awesome. in a completely ridiculous way. but like others have said they all look happy, so good for them!
i’m all in when it comes to expressing yourself but this is just ugly. honestly when these people look at these picutres 10 or 20 years from now, they’ll just be ashamed of themselves from making this special day tacky
You’re very right about the special day. We ‘tacky’ people as you say, are having the exact wedding WE want. Its not for any of you who happen to look at it. Granted, some people make it seem tacky. But that can be done with ANY type of wedding. I believe its tacky to go so over the top and spend the same amount on a wedding that it takes to support a family for X amount of years. Thats ridiculous. The point is, if you take the good parts of some of the weddings shown above, a person can make a very beautiful and memorable wedding-in camo, that reflects who they are (that they’ll still be proud of 20 years later). Thank you very much. So, all of the people who turn their nose up at a camo wedding, if you don’t like it, don’t look at it. Mind your own frickin business!!
I agree with jessica.. “WE” tacky people as you call us… we are doing EXACTLY what we want and how we want it.. if we wanted to go out barefooted w/ some cut off overalls and get married we could. We like our weedings and what we pick is our decision… NOT YOURS! so honestly we post these pictures for you to see not for you 2 criticize and run your mouth we are not ashamed of the way we did our weddings and in 10-20 years i will not look back and regret ANY of it! thank you!

Yea, I agree with the LADIES here, you nose thumbers need to get a life, a real life, not a fake one like you pretend to have. I’ll tell you what’s “TACKY” Flashy dresses, flashy cars, $10,000 wedding dresses, thats “TACKY”. Pretty on the outside, but as empty as a hollow tree trunk on the inside. Only a real women who is secure in who she really is can dress in camo and be happy at her wedding. You fakers cant take it because well, your fake. So take the lady’s advice, if you don’t like it, DON’T LOOK AT IT! I think its really as simple as that. Go back to your pretend to be somebody that your not lifestyle and talk your daddy into giving you another new car after you wrecked the Mercedes you’ve had for a week. Oh and by the way, for those of you who read this and think that I’m probably some dumb redneck, think again, I have 2, yea thats right 2, Phd’s, more education than most of your little fake pea brains can comprehend. So I am an educated redneck and well, quite proud of it, yea I love my guns, dogs, bible, truck, 4 wheeler, boots, and snuff, Anyway, I think your wedding is classy and shows character which is missing in todays world, good luck…
I really like alot of the dresses
I was looking for ideas on how to make my camo prom dress. Im going to my boyfriends prom this year and then i have mine the next year.
I want a sleek looking camo strapless or flat shoulder dress with orange accecnts.

I love these ideas. My fiance and I are having a camo wedding and it is sooo hard to find any camo stuff for it. I have found lots of ideas from these pictures, now I just have to find someone that makes the kind of cake we want…..and again….I LOVE THESE PICTURES!!!!
Hey, I dont know if you’ve gotten married yet or not but I am also have=ing a camo wedding and I have a few ideas, you could use mason jars with candles inside for tables or use a small to medium size log for a centerpiece with a hole cut into it to fit a candle inside with fall leaves on the table instead of rose petals (if your wedding is in the fall). And for your little ring bearer, instead of the usual pillow you could let him carry an unloaded gun, small, with the rings on the barrell. I think these are very good ideas and as for all the above bad mouthing, most of you are probably jealous that you spent thousands more and still didn’t get what you wanted and the “tacky” people spent way less and got exactly everything they wanted!
I love the idea of the ring bearer with the gun idea except my 2 yr old I dont think that would be such a great idea… I am getting married next Oct and Iam haveing a camo themed wedding. I am SO EXCITED… I have seen a few cool center pieces you take empty shotgun shells and stand em up hot glue them to a saucer then you put a clay pigon in the middle of that with a candle.. IT LOOKS REALLY NICE…CHEAP… but creative. AND I LOVED THESE PICTURES..I FEEL BAD FOR THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE TO TAKE OUT A LOAN TO PAY FOR THERE WEDDING. I KNOW I WILL SLEEP JUST FINE AFTER MY WEDDING SINCE EVERYTHING I HAVE BEEN GETTING IS ON CLEARANCE FROM CRAFT STORES.
This hits too close to home for comfort. Kind of glad I moved hundreds of miles away from my hometown.
I wonder if the bride and groom with the cake featuring two deer heads as toppers realized that both deer were male? (Female deer don’t have any antlers — not even little prongs.)

Sadly enough, that’s pretty common around here. I used to work at a local banquet hall and my former manager regaled us with stories of the worst wedding theme that took place there: Realtree, Home Depot orange and Nascar posters. I shit you not.
I love these weddings! We almost did a real tree/mossy oak theme because FH is big into hunting. I’ve seen it done really nicely but obviously, most of these are taken from the “my big redneck wedding” show on CMT, which I’m fairly certain is hammed up to make it as tacky as possible. And as for the male/female deer head cake- that was originally going to be our groomscake!
Im from a small town and I think that the camo would add a different touch to things. I like it
My fiancee and I are planning our wedding. I grew up around huntin and fishin and he is a roughneck. So we are planning an all out camo weddin complete with our trucks and mud! There isnt nothing wrong with this type a weddin if you are havin fun!
Wow, some of those bride maids were hot, in those camo clothes. I wish they would have had camo tuxes when I was in school and when I got married. Oh well. Im divorced now, and had I been in camo then, I proably wouldnt have been standing at the altar, Id been deer hunting.
Hey Eli i hate to tell ya bout some female deer have been known to have antlers. So dont say somethin until you know all the facts. I mean i would have choosen 1 deer with antlers and 1 without but it was a good idea. (And oh yea by the way those little prongs are called spikes!!!)
I would like to know where Krista07 got her dress in the picture above if someone knows where she got it or how to get it please send me a email and let me know thank you

Is it just me, or is that the granddad from King of the Hill in the 3rd pic down

[...] Look, we get it, you’re either into hunting or you’re in the military or you’re in a crazy militia. Whatever the reason you thought it was a good idea to go “commando” for your wedding, you were wrong. Camouflage and weddings just don’t mix. For more terribly wonderful camo wedding images, check out this post from Tacky Weddings. [...]
where you get the cake topper the deer heads
OMG, OMG. Why? Why? Why would anyone do anything so gross?
Wow, the proportion of good to bad is very skewed here. In general I think the advice should be, don’t do it!
Like to watch Stargate Atlantis episodes and also Lost. I found your blog on google and read a few of your other posts. I just added you to my Google News Reader. Look forward to reading more from you in the future.
Yes, I’ve watched My Big Redneck Wedding, and alot of these pics are from that show, but I give kudos to those who include what they love in their ceremony. So many stress about everything being so perfect on their wedding day, that there is no fun in it. I look forward to the day when I get married. My significant other introduced me to hunting and I absolutely love it. I plan on having a more relaxed “feel” to my wedding, including possibly a little of camo in my attire in some way or another. We also plan on having a laid back reception where everyone can have fun and not worry about “OMG I don’t want my make up/hair to mess up”, just have a blast and make it a day to remember.
Personally, I’m disappointed–why does the bride not have a small handgun tucked under her camo garter?
i think this is awsome it has given me ideas about my future husband and wedding, its not trashy its ju8st the way of the south!!! Get-R-Done
wear do you find the cake topper of the to deer heads
oh wow.. well, not my cup of tea, but this is something that would be VERY popular where I’m from (AR..shameful). Some are actually not that bad.. especially maybe just a touch of camo here or there if you’re really into hunting.. and a couple of those cakes aren’t that bad, especially if they are grooms cakes (which i think the chocolate ducks def could be). In my hometown, i think the MAJORITY of grooms cakes are hunting themed! LOL.. (the rest are football or the generic chocolate covered strawberry crap). Yeah, most of these pictures are SUPER tacky.. but a couple are ok. And some of the brides do at least have very unique/cool bouquets!! lol. I much more enjoy the tacky ass ones though.. lol!!
Some of them cakes actually look tasty xD
where do you find the deer heads cake topper
you can find it at Bass Pro Shop…it’s hitch over and a beer can cover.
The camo garters were actually pretty cool, though having two on one leg is a bit much.
But that cake? THAT CAKE. It looks delicious with all the chocolate drizzling down.
I actually like the fist brides wedding dress… But thats a hick wedding if I’ve ever seen one…Does that make me a hick…
This site is a disgrace. To try and make fun at how anyone wants to have their special day is TRASHY. Ever think of that?
Not to mention the show My Big Redneck Wedding. Which also mocks peoples’ special day, no matter how country or hillbilly or redneck the wedding is, its a reflection of the couple and their union WHICH IS WHAT A WEDDING IS SUPPOSED TO BE. And as for the couples that participate in My Big Redneck Wedding, they are selling out and that is what makes their wedding a trashy disgrace.
I am very proud to be planning my very beautiful wedding with many camo touches. And this will be the best wedding for me and my fiance.
You people putting this down should be ashamed of yourselves. Get a life. Really.
The clothing and weddings shown here capture the true spirit of what a wedding should be. These couples are having fun expressing themselves and not subjecting their family and friends to one of those completely overdone, expensive, bridezilla type weddings that leave everyone in debt and exhausted from the demands for expensive things that they cant afford. Couple with those big weddings usually have debt that usually last longer than their weddings.
The camo wedding couples are having fun and aren’t worried about impressing anyone. I can assure you that the guests at the camo weddings definitely had a more fun time than the guests at one of those over the top bridezilla type weddings.
I guess you have to consider the source when you read the mean comments about these weddings. They are made by people who live their lives trying to impress others and always worried about what people think. So to the camo couples : Congratulations and many more happy years to you. I think you are off to a great start and had weddings that people will always remember as a fun wedding.
Okay I love camoflauge, I am a true country girl/redneck/hick or what ever those big city people call me..Well I live in a small town in Arkansas! In the woods and I absoultly love it!Im an outdoors kinda girl! I don’t care what others think cause my little town is more Crunk than their big Cities! (= I really want a Camoflauge dress for my prom next year! && One day when I get married it’s gonna be Camo. all the way. I just love all of these pictures, alllllll of them. (=
I think people can and should be able to make the choices they want for their weddings without others criticizing them so much…. the only person you need to impress is yourself on your day. People who have time to make fun of others have way too much time on their hands!!!!! Who cares what others think…… it’s not their wedding so why do they care so much???? Maybe they are just jealous because they didn’t think of it themselves!!! I think the camo weddings are unique and awesome!!! Anything different is good to me! I loved the pictures!!!!!! I think they were all beautiful!
I love it every last bit of it!!! Plan to have a very camo wedding myself… It don’t make you a redneck just because you like to hunt, its not the same oh white dress so people think it trashy… Well they are wrong. I think camo is pretty for a outdoors type of girl like myself.
Who ever said weddings had to be all glitz and glam… I am getting married next year and we are are having a camo wedding. The men are wearing camo vests, I don’t know what the woman will be wearing yet.. not sure what colors will match that we both like. Any suggestions wis GREATLY appreciated!! Anyway .. anyone can have a tacky wedding.. doesnt have to be just camo I say to each his own. Not everyone has $50,000 to spend on their wedding so they do what they can to make it their day and I say good for you. SO all you with your noses stuck in the air, go find somthing else to bitch about and leave us alone obviously they are happy!
I am doing a white dress with a camo strip on the top and on the bottom. My bridesmaid dress’s are a dark grey but black look cool with the camo on the top and bottom as well. you can find the camo at snydercreek.com I LOVE IT…. Good luck my wedding is in Oct of 2010. Maybe we can share some ideas….Take care
my fiance and i are planning an outdoor earthy feel to our wedding and he is wearing a mossy oak camo vest(he’s and avid deer hunter) and we are thinking a chocolate brown tux along with the groomsmen. my dress is champagne and ivory and my bridesmaids are wearing chocolate brown and champagne dresses. the colours are coming along very well. and still is very classy.
Any one with any camo theme ideas please I would love to hear…. Love the mason jar idea! I am just now starting and I am doing most of it myself so any thoughts are welcome thanks!
LOL I love it!!!1 The cake with the dear on top is awesome and probably what I will have at my wedding that is going to be out in the mountains right next to the river. Everything is going to be camo and in 20 years from now we sill still love to look back at our picture, so for those of you who think it’s a horrible way to have a wedding why don’t you come on out to the mountains and go camping, fishing, and hunting and see why we love it soooo much. May not be your thing but there is people like us who think it is the greatest thing ever and your wedding day is supposed to be the best day of your life so to each their own……and if you don’t like it…….LOOK THE OTHER WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
[...] then: how come I never get to go to this America?! Where are you hiding, elusive shamelessly illiterate and trashy hillbilly land?! And I [...]
White Trash, no more no less. Hunting is big where I live in Texas but that does not negate this is white trash. Only thing worse than camo is tails
where do i find out how to get the camo. Tuxes with orange vests they are so cool. And the camo cake with the deer head topper on it.
I love all the camo! my bedroom is decorated moderately with it and so will my wedding. I don’t understand all the negative comments! yes, there may be people who might over do it a bit but to each their own right? there may be cause to laugh but don’t continue to harp on all the bad look they really tried to make it the best, with most there is much creativity!!!
who are u all to say anything about their wedding. i was actually looking up a camo dress and found this site. your all fucking pathetic. people have real hobbies and like to do real things. Hunting fishing relaxing. just because us “rednecks” go hunting (im a girl by the way) dosent mean people like you who sit on their ass all day and look up websites to hate on other peoples creative weddings dosent matter because we dont give a fuck.
i am 15 yrs old and a very redneck person and in a couple of years me and me boyfriend plan to get married. Our weddin is ganna be just like this- all camo! i cant waitt!
Really its their choice what they want to use for their wedding. Everyone has their own different styles that they like. When you get married you can choose your own theme
Some of these aren’t so pretty to look at, but I love every single one! I plan to have camo all over my wedding! There are no rules when it comes to your wedding. It’s one of the most important days of your life and you should be able to have it anyway you want!
btw, those of you looking for cute idea checkout lacesandpromises.com and there’s a link to ‘a touch of camo’ they have alot of really pretty things!
I don’t know whether all of this belongs in Field & Stream, or Soldier of Fortune magazine.
Wow nice weddings some are a little goofy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pick a new theme though everybodys goin camo!!!!!!!!!
