    Try Cabella's. I've been drug there before for camping supplies and I thought camo would overtake me - it's everywhere!

    maybe since the camo idea is your fiance's, you could make the favors more of your own style (if that doesn't mesh with it as much?) why the camo - is he in the armed forces, or in the military, or is it a school color? maybe you could go off one of those themes instead when looking for favor ideas...

    My sister went to a wedding where they bridesmaids wore camo dresses, and the men were mathicng in vests under their suits....

    They had candy hearts for their favor, which is obviously not camo - but she also said that on top of their dresses being camo they have chair covers that were camo, only for the head table. Other then that the theme didn't carry through all the way - just things that complimented it.

     

    You're one great fiance! I coulnd't do camo!

     

    Hope you find great favors!

    Toy cap guns? Camo fabric photo frames? Target coasters. Deer placecards... Wow, that's a tough one. In google image searches I did find a camo guestbook and ring pillow. Never knew those existed!

    Here's a whole thread about a camo wedding.  Hopefully the pictures of camo dresses give you some ideas.

    why do the favors have to follow a theme? here's an opportunity to inject some style of your own!

    do whatever you want. just remember, if its not USEFUL or EDIBLE its more than likely a waste of money.....

     I wouldn't waste my money....of course i am on a tight budget.....

    Ok, first off, I didn't realize this post was quite so old... if you've already found favors, then awesome! (and yep, we wanna see pics!)

    Here are a couple more ideas:

    chocolate bunnies (or other animals?)

    anything made of wood (coasters come to mind)

    something with pinecones...

    or maybe a favor box that looks something like the woodland favor box here(scroll down): http://www.checkernet.com/favors/?Cobrand=CB&Site=Checkernet&vk=651867321

    Can't think of anything actually camo.  But maybe you can do something in colors that coordinate with the camo - like sage green (I am assuming forest camo, since you didn't say).  You could do votive candles (Yankee Candle Sage and Citrus is sort of sage green), and you could put whatever favors you have in sort of sage green boxes (try bayleysboxes.com) done up with forest green ribbon and maybe design and print a camo label with your names or monogram?

    glittergrl    Planned my wedding in just under 6months. Had the most super fabulous enchanted, eclectic, bohemian forest wedding on the planet! :)   CA

    are you going to do a machine gun wedding cake? that would be badass.

    how about draping that M*A*S*H netting all over the place in the reception.
