Despite appearances, this dream is rarely about a wedding — even for people who are actually planning one.
The much stronger reading, especially in Jungian work, treats it as union: two parts of yourself coming together, independence merging with connection, an old identity integrating with something new.
Just as often it's commitment to something entirely outside romance — a decision, a direction, a project big enough to deserve a ceremony.
If there's no actual wedding on the horizon, the better question is what you might be quietly committing to right now.
Your own wedding. Most often reflects commitment to a new identity or direction, rarely the literal relationship.
Someone else's wedding. Tends to reflect witnessing a change you're not at the center of.
A wedding that goes wrong. Usually reflects anxiety about a commitment already in progress, not doubt about marriage itself.
Never arriving at the wedding. A telling variation — often reflects a commitment that feels unfinished or delayed.
