50mm standard lens F1.8 or even better F1.4-for low-light situations
Not essential, but handy for candids and from back of church images- 70mm-300mm zoom lens
large capacity digital storage cards
At least triple batteries as you think you will need
Two white reflectors
Diffusion (soft-focus) filter
85c warming filter for grey days
Tripod for formal photos
Lens hoods to control flare
Ken, I notice you list an 85c warming filter in your 'essential equipment' list. I am shooting my sister's wedding in the UK just after Christmas so it will almost certainly be a grey day. Should I be using a filter or can I achieve the same effect by adjusting the white balance? I would just be worried that I might mess the photos up as I haven't used filters before...

Thanks, Anna
