How to Blend in at an Outdoor Wedding

The owner of Arnold's Tuxedos to Go says bright colors are all the rage in the tuxedo biz, but camouflage is something that only her store has available.

If you're the groom and want to blend in better at your outdoor wedding, what better way than with a camouflage tuxedo?

But if you opt for the camo look on your wedding day, the only tuxedo store that will be able to help you in the St. Louis area is Tuxedos To Go, 1703 Jeffco Blvd., Arnold.

Co-owner Jill Swanson, who bills herself as a consultant, says her store is the only one she knows of in the St. Louis area that carries camouflage formalwear, which is available in the jacket and pants. And if you want to highlight the camo ensemble with hunter orange, you likely could do that as well, as Swanson says bright colors are currently the hot colors in the tuxedo trade.

With prom season coming up, Swanson says bright colors will be in demand, if for no other reason than to match a date's prom dress colors.

Swanson and her co-consultant, Tina Ruth, also operate Arnold Florist, located next door, and connected to, Tuxedos To Go. The full service florist provides boutonnieres to match or contrast with tuxedo colors, or in the case of a camo tux, provide something that will blend in with the background.
