Definitely a 1D. The original 4 megapixel version.
What's amazing is how good the BIG enlargements are from 4 megapixels.
Of course, this is wedding portraiture, where low noise and high
accutance are more important than ultimate resolution. The big sensor
pays dividends here (this should cross over into the Erwin Putz digital
sensor thread) because when you have only 4 million sensors and a big
1.3 crop area in which to put them, each individual pixel can be very
large. The benefits of this really have to be seen (in the form of large
prints, not pixel-peeping on a computer monitor) to be appreciated.
