Default Re: guests taking photos during formals ?

During the ceremony and speeches you are the only one moving around so you should have better pictures than everyone else so this is mostly only an issue during the formals.

I try for a couple of locations. Most guests only come to the first one. Make the first where you do all the more traditional formals stuff and invite people to come. You are the totally reasonable photographer and the other photogs get their nice shots. Make the second location where you plan to get the really killer creative bridal party shots and ask for bridal party only. Parents leave with the rest of the guests for the reception. Parents may well settle for other people's shots but the bridal party will want the killer trendy shots you get at location 2. Even if it's just bride and groom to location 2 keep the location quiet and just tell the limo driver. Just let the Bride and Groom know the time frame for events so they don't stress about the reception.
