In the morning I’d get some interviews because generally prep will have the couples closest friends/family. They will want to hear their perspectives. Get parents and bridal party interviews as a priority then work your way out to other guests. You can always ask the couple if there is anyone they would like to hear from specifically

You got this! When you arrive get the drone out do your establishing shots (no more than 10/15minutes) then put it away. Focus on the nature of conversations and listen for build ups to emotional moments. If you’re nervous use the gimbal, it will slow you down and make you consider movement more. If you’re shooting alone set your diffuser/reflector up in an area that over looks the drinks reception and bring people to it for interview content. Remember that an emotion packed and sincere interview will be far more value to the couple than a 50fps shot of a flower so work out your priorities early.

My team and I live streamed one of their national conferences for them here in the UK. I don’t know what your equivalent is but we will require required to submit our details for background checks prior to confirmation of the job as well as ensuring that no hardcopies of anyfootage left with us after the event we had to show formatted cards

i use them, never had any issues with them at all. the only thing id say is its going to take a while to charge 8 of those unless you get a v mount charging dock so you can do four at a time

I actually like it. No one is ever  as critical of the work as its creator so have faith in your ability to recognise the areas where you see room for improvement. For me, the edit could do with a change of pace. I always think of a trailer as an overview of the whole story so when I make them I try to reflect the pacing of the story. if you think about a wedding as a workflow: 

The Morning: its a big build up of nerves, excitement and anticipation. - here I try to introduce the characters my focus is always on relatability. I try to find an authentic character trate to highlight. 

The Ceremony: This is your Main Event. Be big, be bold, be dynamic. focus on reations over reveals.

The reception: use cocktail hour interviews to create a drop and allow you to switch pacing for dance montages and energetic interviews - end on a hook of some kind. 

hope that helps
