My current recommended wedding photography gear:
Tamron G2 lenses or Sigma Art lenses can be swapped for any of the below. If the native 70-200 is out of your price range, the Tamron 70-200 f2.8 G2 is a fantastic lens.

Also, while more expensive (f1.2) versions of a lot of lenses exist, this is what I would be looking at for wedding photography. If you want to step up to the f1.2 you're going to get even better quality, it just adds weight and cost.

These are also all lenses and cameras that I've personally used and tested over time.

Nikon Wedding photography cameras and lenses:
Nikon Z6II x 2
Nikon Z 50mm F1.8 or Z 85mm F1.8
Nikon Z 24mm F1.8 or Z 35mm F1.8
Nice to haves: Z 24-70mm F2.8 and Z 70-200mm F2.8

Canon Wedding photography cameras and lenses:
Canon R6 x 2
Canon RF 85mm f2 OR Samyang RF AF 1.4 (if only doing photography)
Canon RF 35mm F1.8
Nice to haves: Canon RF 24-70mm F2.8 and Canon RF 70-200mm f2.8

Sony wedding photography cameras and lenses:
Sony A7R III or IV with newer LCD update (I prefer the screens in these over the A7III) and an A7III.
There are a lot of choices for lenses with Sony.
Cost effective and still quality solutions:
Sony 55mm f1.8 or 85mm F1.8
Sony 35mm f1.8 or 24mm 1.8 (If you have a side interest in Astro - consider the 20mm F1.8 G which I use for a lot of the videos you see on YouTube)
Sony 24-70mm f2.8 and 70-200mm F2.8 are great to have, but rent at first to see if you like it.
Or step to the GM 1.4 versions of any of those lenses and you'll be happy.

Fujifilm wedding photography lenses and cameras:
Fujifilm XT4 x 2 (or even XT3 if you have limited interest in video - or one of each)
Fujifilm 56mm f1.2 or Fujifilm 50mm f1.0
I personally use the Fuji 23mm f2.0, but you can go for the 1.4 or the 18mm if you want to be a little wider.
Fuji 50-140mm f2.8 or either the 80mm or 90mm prime. The 80mm is also a macro for ring shots, so it's a great choice.

Flashes and speedlights:
Godox V1 and X2T or XPro
Additional V1 for backup or Godox AD100Pro (Or AD200Pro if you spend time in the studio)

I use Sony cards most of the time. Specifically the Sony TOUGH cards for my main slot when possible.
