I was told, mostly by the bride's mom, that I should not take pictures, but should have fun. Well, fun for one.... The affair was pretty formal with scads of attendants and came off very nicely. Sitting up front, I was able to take a few unobtrusive shots during the ceremony (which was ok by the church as long as no flash was used, and the movement was not disruptive) Brought the Fuji S2 and the Olympus 5050 since anyone at the table could pick it up and use it. Worked like a champ. Had debated the M7 but did not want others fooling with it (surprise, surprise) and did not want to overload the table with photo gear (spousal unit's suggestion). Between my friend, the official photographer's 400+ pictures and our 250+ pictures, they had a great selection to choose from. So my advice by now should be obvious. Bring what you are comfortable with and snap away. You never know who will get the prize winning shot...
