The Bride of Christ

When Christ talked about the time He would return, He very often spoke of it as a great wedding celebration which He wanted everyone attend. Was He using simply using the universally understood festive wedding as a way to describe how joyous the event will be… words to stir up emotions? Or is Jesus referring to an actual future event?
