Peter, we shoot mostly vertical images, the only horizontal ones are the
"formal" family-everybody-including-Aunt-Mabel images and some images of the dance floor. The PJ style stuff we shoot is predominantly vertical. I exaggerate when I way 90%, but 75% would be a realistic number. http://www.shadowcatcherimagery.com/cm1.html If you're shooting horizontals at a reception, for instance, you're getting too much detritus and not enough of the couple in question, in my opinion.

I recently wrote an article on the million dollar wedding Oprah gave away and the majority were horizontal. Here is a link with a few images: http://www.rangefindermag.com/magazine/archives/Feb05/todds.tml
There are others PJ-style wedding photogs who use promarily horizontal images, but this is an individual choice. Either way is correct and both are PJ style. I will leave this one alone.

I'll agree, compositionally the 8 or so horizontals work well, as do the 4 verticals.
