You might also take a flask of Scotch, just in case it hits the fan.

With so much pressure and responsibility, I would bring out the Flask on the drive to the shoot!

I am not meaning to make anyone feel badly about a rainy situation, but here is what happened to me.
My son got married this past Monday. I flew out(Ontario to Nova Scotia, Canada) as the father, but also as the official photographer.
It had been raining for a few days and the prediction was for more rain, heavy at times, on the wedding day. The wedding was to be outdoors on the ocean beach.
That morning, the clouds moved out, the sun and warmth and mild breeze moved in. The wedding was perfect. That evening, long after the wedding, the rain returned.
Someone had the right connections, I guess.

You must feel quite prepared and confident. The last thing on my mind on my first few weddings would have been posting a message on this site and I prepared for weeks before. I didn't get time to break out the flask until well into the night (around 11pm).
Im on GMT time and its around 1:30pm here so I am guessing you are in full swing now. Good luck all the same and we are all thinking about you. Can't wait to see your results.

best of luck, I brought two dslrs with me for my daughters wedding. ones with the 20mm f2.8 for quick shots and wides. and a 70-200 f2.8 on the bid dslr . . took videos and pics. takes tons of pics. its the "second" best day of your life . watching your kids grow up is even better than being the pic taker. if your like me you'll take at least 1200 shots . remember to take a cleaning kit and a box of Kleenex...

I remember the first wedding I photographed in 1971. I had a drink and it was the last drink I ever had at a wedding. Two thousand weddings later and now I can relax.

Marty, that is 4 lenses to switch out if you only bring one body. Are you bringing two camera bodies? A second shooter? I only ask because my first wedding is coming up and these are the options I am wieghing!
