I am going to try and get a cord to use it off camera too between now and then.
I have seen the venue,it is a small community center, it is pretty well lit with florescent lights and has windows running up both sides. The ceremony itself will be in the middle of the room so I am hoping the light spilling through the windows won't effect the WB too much. I am planning on doing the formal shots in the park outside as it will be about 7 pm by that time.
Any suggestions,or advice is appreciate.

Ambrosia, I am new at this, I bought my camera Monday, ( Sony a55) found this site yesterday, in hopes I can learn how to use it. I was up till 1 am reading everything I could to learn from you all. Not sure if my advice is of any help to you at all. But I would say, get the bride, and her maids together a day, or 2 before the wedding, and go somewhere there is a nice setting, and take lots of pictures, and do the same for the groom, and the groomsmen. That way you are not taking up a lot of time trying to get them all together during the wedding. Which can be a nightmare in itself. You can also have someone help you take the, Getting ready for the big day pictures, that day as well. Same for the guys. Then at the wedding you will only have to focus on getting the group shots, and the memory shots. I hope this will make your special day more enjoyable.........good luck and best wishes to you all......................Laura
