I think the meaning of this song is pretty straight forward....
IMHO It's something of an unrequited love song.
He (the singer of the song) has been in love with a girl, who is now getting married... They have had a relationship historically and it has broken up, leaving the on good enough terms for him to attend her Wedding to another guy.
He is still in love with the girl (bride) and wishes he could be getting married/back with her but he accepts that she doesn't love him back and she is happy with her new guy. He accepts this and on one hand is happy to see her happy, but secretly longs for her. He really wants to stop the ceremony but doesnt as he knows it wont make her love him.
Been there, done that, been to the wedding, chocked back the tears and went home. :-(
