Introduction
Wedding dreams are among the most significant prophetic dreams you can have. In Scripture, marriage is a profound symbol of covenant—between humans and, most importantly, between Christ and His Church. Whether your wedding dream is about your own marriage or you're a guest at someone else's, there's deep spiritual meaning to uncover.
