<p>Hi Christopher, I have just had a very similar situation regarding shooting a wedding as a favour to a family member. I shot the whole thing over 2 days solely using a D700 with a 24-70 and can't recommend the combination highly enough.<br>

As an extra point I would definately advise bringing a flash unit as well. I brought along an SB900 and was so glad I did when I was told during the ceremony I was only allowed to be along side the registrar looking at the couple and out to the guests. The back of the room was a whole wall of windows and without the flash I would have struggled not to silhouette many of the shots.<br>

Good luck, have fun with it.</p>

<p>Hi Robert, I'm with Bob on the Think Tank suggestion. I have recently bought an Urban Disguise 30 and I carry a D700 with a 24-70 2.8 attached, an SB-900 flash plus cards, batteries, phone wallet etc. I recently used it on a weekend trip to Kuala Lumpur and found it to be easy to carry and easy to use while walking.<br>

I also bought an additional strap from an Urban Disguise 40 which is wider and more comfortable to carry for extended periods. Fits perfectly on the UD30. Downside I would say is they are quite expensive but then construction feels bullet-proof.<br>

If possible I would recommend the suggestions from a few previous posters about taking your kit to a store and testing it, its the only way to really know its right without taking a gamble. But hey, a gamble can be fun!</p>
