Wedding lens?

You have a choice to take 2 lens for a wedding shoot.
What would your choice be?

Who's restricting me?

I would ask in the wedding forum.

24-70(17-55) -70-200

simple!

24L II + 50L

Would be helpful to know what format you are using.

24-70 and 135L

or 17-55 and 100 f2 or 85 1.8 or something

24-70L + 35L

I might question the wisdom of doing this wedding.

I shot a ceremony today using only the 35L and 135L. the boss man shot his half of the day with a Tamron 18-200 and a Canon 70-200/2.8 L. It takes all kinds.

Playing it safe: 17-55 F2.8 IS and 70-200 F2.8 IS
More fun: 30 F1.4 and 100 F2.8 macro

In reality: 17-55x2, 70-200, 100 2.8, 30 1.4, 10-22.

I find the less decisions I have to make on a wedding day the more I concentrate on the emotions, and I get better photos that way. Having said that equipment does help.

Perhaps it's just silly me, but I can't understand the replies without knowing what format the OP is going to use. Also, some of the replies don't identify which camera the respondent is basing the suggested lens choice on. The AOV with the same lens on each of the three possible formats different greatly.

I'd pick 24L and 50L and bring my 1DmkIII and 5DmkII... that would get me the following focal lengths, 24, 31, 50 and 65.

another good choice would be 35L and 85L, which would give me 35, 45, 85, and 110.

24L and 85LII

I didn't get the impression that OP was asking for advice/recommendations​. It came across to me as another pointless theoretical/what if/survey thread.
