I have a Canon EOS 20D and will be using it for wedding photography. What do you recommend I use for the OTL flash (other than the one that comes built in to the camera)?

Thanks!

What do you mean by OTL flash?

The on-board flash is totally inadequate for a wedding , I would have thought, you need a 430EX at a minimum, preferably with a bracket.

Are you planning on doing this as a pro or simply as a guest with a camera?

The 580EX is an excellent flash, if you're shooting for pay. If you're just a guest, the 430EX should suffice.

You might want to check out the Weddings forum also. Loads of good advice there.
