I've gotta shoot my step son's wedding in May, looking for suggestions on wide angle glass to catch a whole wedding party...

Thanks

17-55 2.8 IS .....without a doubt! :) At least for me

expensive glass, but worth every penny! You might wanna try renting it first, if cost is a real issue

What camera do you have? That helps with what people recommend.

I moved this thread to Talk as you don't have an image to share but need help.

17-55 2.8 IS as said above. If that is out of your budget, tamron 17-50 2.8 is about half that price.

If it is a HUGE wedding party, canon, sigma, and tamron all make UWA lenses starting at 10-11mm in the $500-$600 range.

17-55 2.8 IS - I use no other. That lens can easily shoot an entire wedding for me.
