The song seems to be about his father, and the emotion of his wedding brings it to the surface. It sounds as if it could be his second wedding. He recalls the first in the first verse, then the second verse hints at relationships going sour (will they ever look so happy again?). He then laments the lessons he has had to learn as a result. And he looks to his father as a figure of strength to inspire him to sort his own life out, and walk like a man.
