    Get comfortable with that 30d. Rent two fast lenses, its going to be dark – so at least 2.8s at like 200mm and something like a 24mm+ zoom for the close stuff. I would only shoot RAW – with Lightroom, its nearly as fast as using just jpg, and you can shoot higher ISO with less noise.
    Get a diffuser for your flash.
    Don't shoot wide open for the wedding party shots, you definitely want everyone in focus.
    Remember, your are essentially doing this for the Bride, if she's happy, thats all that matters. That being said, take a ton of pics of her to increase the likelihood of getting a good one. And don't miss the parts with her daddy.
    Good luck.
