I am getting married in a few weeks in the eve/night. The wedding is outdoor with 2 indoor rooms. The outside will have calm lighting with lights in trees and on the ground. I have a photographer to take the pics, but I am also having my father take other pics. My equipment is a Canon EOS 1 with 85mm F1.8 Lens. I have an EZ540 flash, but would prefer to use ambient light--thus my question. Is it gonna look bad with film pushed to 1600 or 3200 for candid/photojournalistic b&w shots? I know bad is completely opinionated, but quality wise, is it worth doing?
Sometimes questions are easier to ask in person instead of typing out....hahaha
I think it's going to depend a lot on what film you use. I had to push Velvia 50 to 400 last year and it came out pretty darn good considering. The grain was still smaller than 400 film would have been I think, but that's subjective obviously.

But if you're looking for grain I'd shoot fast film from the start.
Without some experimentation it's hard to say which would be better for you: high speed film or pushing a slower film. A wedding is not the time to practice, so unless you have time to experiment with a roll, I'd say stick with Fuji 1600, Tmax 3200, or Delta 3200. How fast will Intel push P4s::

is shooting a show with 400 speed film good enough?::
I wouldnt recommend pushing unless you know your film. Push processing is VERY process/film Its not for everyone. My opinion.
