FI wants to pick my garter

My fiance has requested that I get an Army camo garter. I think its cute, but I'm worried that it'll look silly with my white dress (that has black details) and red flowers.

What do you ladies think?
I know I am probably over thinking this. But less than 3 weeks before my wedding, I'm not sure I remember how NOT to over think anymore...

    I think as long as it makes him happy you are set.  I say go for it and let him have some fun.  Not many people will see it under the dress anyway.

    It will only be seen as he's taking it off and throwing it.  I wouldn't worry about it clashing at all.  www.etsy.com has some great specialty themed  garters.

    Ditto to what PPs said. One of my BMs was married a month and a half ago, and she wore a Nebraska Cornhuskers garter. Her DH LOOOOOOOOVED it -- they're big Huskers fans. It's fun to get a tossing garter that the hubbie would enjoy.

    Nobody will be worried about that. Only men will be handling it, right? So I'm sure they'd rather catch camo than lace.

    I will also be getting a camo garter to surprise my FI. He is a huge deer hunter and I am anti-hunting, so I know that he will be very surprised and excited to see the camo.
