Wireless Lav wind jammer advice?

Hi guys.
I'm mostly using an Azden 320 wireless kit for weddings and I like how the foam windscreens are securely attached to the mics (wheras my Samson UHS Micro 32 ones fall off rather easily).
However I sometimes run into wind noise problems at windy weddings so I am looking for advice to remedy this problem.
The furry windjammers I have found won't fit over the large Azden foam screens and I am afraid of taking them off and them never staying on good again.

I typically mic the pastor and the groom.
What do you guys do to beat the wind and is there a certain model/brand that is better for using secure windjammers?
 
In the film world the mics are normally hidden in the wardrobe and out of direct wind. 'Rycote Undercovers and Overcovers' are a common hidden mic accessory for wind and rubbing noise issues. Furry 'windjammer' type windscreens are abundant from many manufacturers. Rycote, Windtech, K-Tec, Rode, ect, ect, ect.
Some mics and mic types (cardioid) are more susceptible to wind.
FWIW, Azden gear is not highly regarded in the pro audio community..
