Sorry, coudln't resist: Not if you're a Nikon user :)
That having been said, every thing that you shoot is good. I think that you would make any bride proud with a point and shoot, you care enough about what you do and what you provide your clients: you're that good.

The high ISO capabilities of the a7 III along with a high dynamic range is what sold me.
Thanks for the kind words :)

Dont forget the silent shooting and eye-AF!!
...really tempted to get the A7iii as a backup to my 5Dmkiv.
Its about the only thing that I am missing for weddings and what I want in mirrorless.
I then would be able to hold the composition/framing of the bridewalk at low aperture and fire off 10-20 frames and pick the best leg/arm angles....knowing that 70-80% of the shots will be sharp.
The silent shutter for those pause moments / prayer time or general solemn moments where even the silent mode on a DSLR still gives a mushy but audible click.
My high ISO and DR are good enough on the 5DmkIV :-)
Jason Laniers video on adapted canon glass showed great eye-AF performance but it was great lighting. Would love to see how the eye-AF performs in low light (ie most weddings I shoot :-)
My 5d shoots in the dark and I trust it .
Any camera decisions I make start and end with AF performance and ensuring dual slot.
Sadly, Canon EOS-R has a single slot....lost my business there, otherwise, -6ev focus is a killer.
I may still change my mind and risk the single slot but holding back for now...
