Jung interpreted a dream wedding asconiunctio oppositorum- the merging of opposites. The wedding symbolizes the integration of two aspects of the psyche: Anima and Animus, consciousness and unconsciousness, reason and intuition.

These may be career decisions, moving, or changing careers. The brain uses the symbol of a vow - a lasting, irreversible commitment - as a metaphor for any serious choice.

In Polish tradition, a dream about a wedding predicted an important event - not always a literal wedding, but often a groundbreaking change. Dreams about getting married in mourning attire or with bad omens (rain, torn veil) were interpreted as a warning against a hasty decision. In the Hindu tradition, a wedding (vivaha) is one of the most important sanskaras - rites of passage. Dreaming about him means entering a new karmic stage.
Nowadays, getting married in a dream is increasingly interpreted psychologically - as a symbol of covenant with oneself and emotional maturity, readiness to fully commit to something that we really value.
What to do after a wedding dream?
Think about what you are willing to commit to - a project, a relationship, a decision about yourself? Is there something in your life to which you want to be "true" - values, a dream, a relationship? If the wedding was terrifying - identify what's keeping you from fully committing. A wedding in a dream is an invitation to reflect on commitments and readiness for a new chapter.
