There's a park in town that is packed tight with wedding parties every
Saturday. Last time I went, I noticed that all of the photographers were using
medium format film (no exceptions). This wasn't the case two years ago.
I guess that couples who signed-on for "all digital" weddings did not like the
results. And told their friends.

Mind you, these were formals. They may have used other equipment for the
ceremony and for candids.

I mentioned this to a friend at a pro shop and he confirmed that all but the
cheapest wedding photographers in town are shooting film.
