In this work we introduce a class of discrete groups containing subgroups of abstract translations and dilations, respectively. A variety of wavelet systems can appear as $\pi(\Gamma)\psi$, where $\pi$ is a unitary representation of a wavelet group and $\Gamma$ is the abstract pseudo-lattice $\Gamma$. We prove a condition in order that a Parseval frame $\pi(\Gamma)\psi$ can be dilated to an orthonormal basis of the form $\tau(\Gamma)\Psi$ where $\tau$ is a super-representation of $\pi$. For a subclass of groups that includes the case where the translation subgroup is Heisenberg, we show that this condition always holds, and we cite familiar examples as applications.
