I believe the answer is:

married

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'getting wed' is the definition.
'married' can be an answer for 'wed' (I've seen this in another clue). I'm not certain of the 'getting' bit.

'i dream about taking a hand' is the wordplay.
'about' indicates an anagram.
'taking' is an insertion indicator.
'a hand' becomes 'r' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'i'+'dream'='idream'
'idream' is an anagram of 'maried'.
'maried' enclosing 'r' is 'MARRIED'.

'and' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for married that I've seen before include "having a wife" , "Closely linked" , "Spliced" , "disqualified from new romance?" , "Not single" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
