Parable of the Wedding Feast

In Matthew 22, Jesus gives the parable of the wedding feast where he describes a king who prepared a wedding for his son, but the people who were invited by his servants ended up killing the servants. Jesus then says that the king sent his troops and destroyed the murderers.

Then the king sends servants out to invite all they could find in the streets to fill the wedding hall.

Strikingly, the king comes across a man who is not wearing the proper attire at the wedding and has the man bound and cast into "the outer darkness" where men "weep and gnash their teeth."

What is Jesus talking about in the parable of the wedding feast? What does the wedding feast represent, as this is no ordinary wedding feast?
