Art,

I got sucked into this for my granddaughter's wedding last summer.  After
talking with some Luggers, I used Kodak TMY 5053, T-Max 400, pushed to 800
and Kodak TMZ 5054, P3200 at 1600. I took all be available light (or
darkness in the case of the reception) and had them developed and printed
by San Miguel Photo Lab.  I used two M-6's with the 35/1.4 ASPH on one and
the Noctilux on the other.  I was quite pleased with the results and my
granddaughter liked them also.  I had a hard time explaining why I used B&W
rather than color negatives.  I had taken some color pics at the reception
place and they showed a distinct reddish cast from the incandescent lights
and the store here I took them too (Wolf's) said that they could not
correct it very well.

Hope that this helps.
