The wedding banquet in this parable was prepared in all detail, not just the food and entertainment, but multiple rounds of invitations and a wedding garment as a gift for everyone invited. If the king represents God and his son is Jesus, then we are those invited to the wedding. And the wedding garment offered as a gift is the pure, righteous life of Jesus when He lived among us, which we receive as a gift when we come before Him with a broken heart to confess our sins.
