| 50mm 1.8 should be around $100, it is very very fast. |

| Lenses for low light work have wide apertures and lots of glass - which makes them expensive, though second hand may be an option. You really have no choice about this if you want decent results, wider lenses tend to be cheaper than longer ones, so I'd work out what you'll need in terms of focal length to get your images in the bag - make a choice accordingly. Look for f2.8 or so on a zoom if possible... across the range. A fixed focal length lens will be much cheaper but less flexible, in which case you could be looking at f1.6 or f1.2 - great quality! |

| Your best bet for the money is the 50mm f1.8 Nikkor. This is the best quality lens, and can be found for $130. However, you might be finding yourself needing more range, which in any case, you might consider spending a bit more for the 85mm f1.8, or as someone else suggested, the 35-70mm f2.8. |

Everything About Your Wedding
Wedding Marketplace

Where and How to Start?
There’s so much to do, it can be mind-numbing. Don’t worry. I planned and held my first wedding in two months and my second wedding in three months. If you have the luxury of a year or more, feel lucky!
Wedding Invitation
Ideally, invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the big day to give guests time to make arrangements to attend and RSVP back to you.
Wedding Attire
Where I come from, buying a tuxedo is virtually unheard of. Renting is probably the way to go to realize the ultimate savings on the groom’s attire.
Wedding Flowers
Cheap doesn't mean that your wedding flowers can't be beautiful. All flowers are lovely no matter what they cost.
Wedding Ceremony Decoration
Most wedding ceremonies are short and sweet, so why spend a majority...
Wedding Music
Music for your wedding ceremony could consist of live or recorded performances.
Wedding Photography
Pictures are priceless, and you want to be sure you have plenty of good pictures of your special day.
Wedding Favors
Some brides don’t like the idea of giving gifts to her guests, but we think it’s a nice gesture as a thank you...
Wedding Food
Wedding food can take a huge chunk out of your wedding budget.
Wedding Cake
Your wedding cake is the centerpiece of the reception. It is a scrumptious dessert as well as part of a tradition
Wedding Party
The question of whether or not to serve alcohol at your wedding is one that can cause dissension in the ranks of family.
