Thank u so much for your encouragement! I did get a bit overwhelmed with all of the great advise I've gotten thus far. I went to the laundrymat, where there is an abundance of fourecent lighting, to practice. I tried everything everyone has suggested, as much as I could with what I have, and it looks fine, I hope. This couple knows I have no wedding experience so I told them I promise nothing but will try to give them the best I can. lol. SOunds funny, huh...'TRY to give them the BEST I CAN. lol. What a cop out. lol. ANyway. Thank u again.

If you buy a flash from B&H, you can get a rosco sampler for $0.01 which has several green gells in it.

Flourescent lights are all different. Cool white is different than warm white. Some older fluorescent lights are 60Hz but most of the new ones have a higher frequency. Some fluorescents have a good CRI (ie not much extra green) and some don't.

The only way to tell which gells to use is to go to the church and take some test shots. If you can't test, add a rosco tough plusgreen gell to your flash and hope.
