Mama June wears bizarre camouflage dress to tie the knot with Sugar Bear... while Honey Boo Boo opts for poofy pink ruffles

A real redneck wedding

She is one of the most larger than life personalities on reality television.
And Mama June outdid herself as she wore a bizarre camouflage dress for her nuptials with her beau Sugar Bear in their Georgia back garden on Sunday.
Not to be outdone, her pop culture phenomenon daughter Honey Boo Boo was dressed for the occasion in an outlandishly poofy pink and peach gown.

The 33-year-old reality star, real name June Shannon, will be shown tying the knot with her partner of nine years Mike Thompson on the family's television show Her Comes Honey Boo Boo.
And for once the seven-year-old was happy to play second fiddle as she finally watched her parents exchange vows.
Her sisters Pumpkin, Chickadee and Chubbs were also important attendees at the event.

But despite appearances, June told People they had been careful not to have an extravagant ceremony, which was marked with a family barbecue.
She said: 'My sister baked the cake, and we spent most of the money on barbecue.
'We stayed true to our roots and made the focus on the family and my commitment to Sugar Bear.
'You can definitely plan an event on a budget!'

She said: 'The day was very special mostly because my girls were able to take part in it.
'I felt like it was important for them to see this moment and celebrate my love for Sugar Bear.'

And the reality favourite says she has plenty of tips to pass on to her family about finding the ideal husband.
She said: 'Never settle for a man who doesn't treat you right. If a guy doesn't love everything about you, move on! There are plenty of other fish in the sea.
'I give this advice to my daughters because I always want them to be themselves and surround themselves with people who love them for them.'

Mama June and her daughter shot to fame after appearing on reality show Toddlers and Tiaras before landing their own programme.
Last month Honey Boo Boo enjoyed a trip to New York where she picked up yet another accolade
was crowned Miss Trump Hotel New York 2013

The young reality star has already garnered plenty of accolades, but with her new title she may have her sights set on something even bigger.

As Donald Trump is both the owner of the hotel and organiser of the Miss Universe pageant, it seems as though Honey Boo Boo would have a slight advantage should she ever want to enter the pageant down the line.
For now, though, she seems happy to be a youngster, comfortable in just her jeans and sandals – saving gowns and high heels for her later years.
To celebrate her new title, Mama June took Honey Boo Boo to FAO Schwarz to shop for toys, which is where Angelina Jolie took her sons on Friday as well.
