I had the same dilemma as have many others - I opted for the 24-70mm which is an amazing lens, since owning it I have taken some of my favourite shots and it has become my favourite lens. The only negative point of this lens is the weight - it is a heavy lens to carry around all day and it can be tricky travelling with a lot of heavy lenses these days with airline carry on luggage restrictions. But I still love this lens and it is always either on my camera or in my kit bag.<br>
If you want to shoot mostly low light then maybe primes are your solution, but then if you are going to do wedding photography you will need a speedlight flash so either of the lenses will work well teamed up with something like a 580ex Mk II and a good diffuser.</p>
