I have never rented a lens, so I can't answer your question, but why
would you want a fisheye to shoot a wedding? Perhaps it might be
okay for a few effects photos, like a church exterior or something
on that order. But you definitely don't want to use it as your main
wide. Can you rent a 16-50 or if you already have a medium wide to
normal, maybe a 12-24? I bring my 12-24 when shooting a wedding but
rarely use anything wider than the 16=50

It is just for the effects photos. I have actually met with a few
couples before who wondered why I didn't have anything in my portfolio
with a fisheye at the back of the church during the ceremony. They do
also have the 12-24 or the Sigma 10-20 available, but my friend/2nd
shooter has that range covered with her D700. Since the couple has a
beautiful location for the ceremony and reception, and because they
are an attractive couple, I really want to use this wedding to expand
my portfolio. The lensbaby is going along too...
