If by any chance your wild life lens is the 17-55 f/2.8 IS (yeah, right ;)), then you have a good lens to start off with, esp. since you have a crop body (the XT). Otherwise, many here will recommend it to you before anything else.
Your may also need a medium telephoto lens, in which case I would recommend the 70-200mm f/2.8 IS. You need fast glass for weddings and the IS is just great for handheld shots.
