Mike, congratulations to you and the bride to be.
I endorse the advice given by others.
By all means take along an OM4T and 35~105 - sharp and good range, even
if the aperture is a bit small, and take candids when it suits you and you are
then not torn between taking photos or being the proud Dad in the midst of it
all.
As a Dad I'd choose being a participant (and enjoy that side of things) and
not having to worry about whether or not you are doing a good photographic
job.
Give the worries and cares to somebody else this time. Whether I had just
one daughter or more, I'd probably say the same. Each one is unique.
