| learn about exposure, flash et cetera, if you knew both these things you wont be asking the questionshould be enough flash depends on the appetures you use and how far from your subjects you are, if your shooting on anything other than manual dont get to far from your subjectswhats the GN of that flash?all that said congradulations and best of luck, carry lots of batteries for the flash, use rechargables if you can they have more grunt (2000mha+), spare mem cards or film etc |

| Yes, it will do if you're shooting with a Canon SLR. Be careful, though. E-TTL II is a good tool, but it tends to overexpose if you are not careful. Bounce the flash off walls/ceiling whenever possible. Check histogram on your images to make sure you get the exposure right. Make sure you practice a lot before the wedding and carry spare batteries. |

Everything About Your Wedding
Wedding Marketplace
Buy and sale all wedding related products.
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.
