I just shot my first wedding. What you need for a wedding and what you need for a reception are two different things. For a wedding, I needed everything from the 10mm of my Sigma 10-20mm F/4-5.6 to the 200mm of my Nikon 80-200mm F/2.8. For the reception afterwards, I used the 10-20 and 18-50 only. Never broke out the 80-200. For both you will need a flash. My inverted dome diffuser made life an incredible amount easier and made the photos much better. Is it possible to shoot with a 35mm and 50mm 1.8? Sure. Are you going to be miserable the whole time? Definately. Without zooms covering at least 18-150mm, I think youre making it harder than necessary. Also, stock up on batteries. Mainly for your flash, but also for your camera. I only used 1 battery on my D300s, but used 24 NiMH batteries in my SB-600..
