I have a wedding to attend vs I have to attend a wedding

Both sentences are correct and natural. They convey a similar meaning but have a difference in emphasis. 'I have a wedding to attend' emphasizes the event itself, while 'I have to attend a wedding' emphasizes the obligation or necessity to attend. The choice between them depends on the context and the speaker's focus.
