Have a client wanting us to shoot there wedding in a few weeks. Wedding will be outside during the evening, from what ive been told not many quest, no reception or anything like that just pre ceremony portraits, ceremony shots, and post ceremony portraits at sun set is what there after. Should only be 2-3 hours of work at most. Just wanting to make sure I have everything covered from a lighting stand point. What I own and can bring with me is,

Godox ad600pro
Two godox ad200
Godox xproO trigger
Godox v1 (if it arrives in time)

For modifiers,
Glow ez lock 38" deep parabolic
Glow ez lock 48" deep parabolic
Glow ez lock 28x39" soft box
Glow long throw reflector

Plus gels and stands and sandbags for everything.

Planning to meet with the client this weekend at the venue to go over more but just wanting to make sure I have everything covered from those who have shot weddings before.


Gripped Nikon D810, S35 F1.4 Art, S50 F1.4 Art, Nikon 85 F1.8G, Tamron 70-200 F2.8 G2, Godox Xpro N, (2) Godox AD200, Godox AD600pro

You have more than enough lighting gear, I would keep it simple and stick to one modifier if you don’t have an assistant. Setting up big modifiers during a wedding can be rather cumbersome.

Meeting with the client and taking a trip to the venue is a must and will help you plan where to set up your lights. Depending on the area you will be shooting the paras might be over kill and TTL speed-lights will be handy.

Those Sunset portraits sound fun!

I agree with the above statements. Keep it simple. Since you will be doing all your shooting outdoors, one folding soft box or umbrella is all you need in terms of modifiers.
