It might be helpful to know where this text comes from, it's not easy to understand without some context.

Please provide some additional context. My first impression is that the sentence was written in jest to let the reader know that the wedding was not going to be a formal affair.

What do you mean by "written in jest"?

Is it some kind of attire? Something worn?

Thanks

Could it by any means mean the army jacket where marine corps carry their ammunition??? This suits my context. but I don't have any reference and i'm not sure of what I'm saying.

Thanks.

I have seen tuxedo t-shirts - they are t-shirts but their printing makes them look like a tuxedo.

Not really, of course - everyone can see it's a t-shirt, but where the tux jacket would be, it's black, where the shirt buttons are, there are printed buttons, etc.

It seems that there are t-shirts that look like tuxedos, but instead of black, it's camouflage, military style.

This program seems like the strangest way to plan a wedding I've ever hear of. People will do anything to have their moment in the spotlight, I guess.

Ammunition crates, ie storage boxes for bullets and missiles.

Crates = wooden boxes.

I really, really hope this silly wedding show doesn't have real ammunition in these crates!

It's a program called "Whose wedding is it anyway" it's nice.

You can't have a shotgun wedding without some live ammunition!

Whether they have live ammunition, or not, I'm sure everyone will still have a blast! ;-)
