Bad Manners! Now that is the key!  What about courtesy to the Bride and Groom?
The Bride and Groom are paying someone to photograph their wedding.  If they
picked an good experienced photographer, they are paying a lot of money.  It is
uncommon but we (my wife and I) have had other people interfere with the
photography.  This ranges from running over my wife with an amature camera to
running up to hug the Bride during the photo session.  The people that lost are
the Bride and Groom.  They had the opportunity for once in a lifetime
photograph taken away.

I guess that the way this thread has gone it should move to alt.manners :-)
