Thanks Ric, but the problem is that I will not know their TV so I can't do 
that. I was hoping that if I produced to 4:3 it would stay like that when 
shown, with a black edge on a 16:9 screen but it stretches sideways to fill 
the 16:9 screen making the people look fat - not what the bride and groom 
want at all!

There must be an easy setting somewhere that will stop this happening - 
maybe in Aperture/iPhoto?
