A local official says the victims were travelling in a minibus though Farah province when the bomb ripped through their vehicle.
Most of the victims have been identified as women and children.
Provincial police are blaming Taliban insurgents for planting the bomb.
Roadside bombs are the weapon of choice of the hardline Islamists.
They are fighting Afghan forces and the 100,000 NATO troops in an effort to topple the government of President Hamid Karzai.
Afghan weddings are often lavish affairs, drawing hundreds of relatives and guests from far afield.
The latest blast took the total toll among wedding guests on the roads to 46 in less than a month.
