Dream About Attending a Wedding
Detailed Interpretation
You're at a wedding, but it's not yours—you're a guest, witness, supporter. You watch others commit while you observe. This represents your relationship to others' unions and commitments.
Whose wedding is it? If known people, you might be processing their actual relationship or what their union means for you. Friends marrying might change your relationship to them. Family wedding might represent family changes.
Being a guest positions you as supporter, not star. The dream might process your role in others' lives—important but peripheral, present but not central.
If you're single, others' weddings might trigger feelings about your own partnership status. If partnered, others' weddings might invite comparison to your own commitment.
Consider your feelings at the wedding. Happiness suggests genuine support for union. Jealousy suggests wanting what they have. Sadness suggests loss in their gain. Anxiety suggests worry about what their commitment means for you.
