I have been thinking about your situation for a few hours now and man, I am so excited for your big gig! Weddings are such an amazing adrenaline rush. I remember one time I brought a long lens to a tiny church and I was literally trapped against a wall... it was a total nightmare trying to get those tight shots. If you want to be safe and save some cash, you should totally look at these instead of blowing the whole $2000 on one lens. Quick question tho, how small is that studio space exactly? If it is a tiny room, you will definitely regret going too long.

• Sigma 85mm f1.4 DG DN Art for Sony E is fantastic and saves you a ton of money
• Sony FE 85mm f1.8 has lightning fast autofocus for a fraction of the price Honestly, going for the Sigma gives you that pro look and leaves you with enough left over for extra cards or even a backup body! You really gotta have a backup for a wedding to be safe.

If you are working in tight studios, you might want to consider the Sony FE 85mm f/1.4 GM as the safer bet for your upcoming wedding. I have shot with both lenses and while the Sony FE 135mm f/1.8 GM has arguably faster autofocus and insane sharpness, it can be a total nightmare in small rooms. Youll find yourself literally backed into a corner trying to frame a simple portrait. Make sure to think about the wedding reception too, because a 135mm is often way too long for crowded indoor spaces. I would suggest the 85mm because it gives you that high-end pro look while being much more practical for your $2000 budget. The bokeh is top tier and it wont leave you struggling for space. Honestly, the 135mm is beautiful but just too specialized for most indoor gigs... go with the 85mm if you need versatility tho.

Yep been there done that. Can confirm everything said above is spot on.
