hi there it is not a job to be taken on lightly. My best tip is to be an assistant on a few jobs as a wedding is not a place to make mistakes. But the essential skills to master are portrait technique (controlling depth of field and careful focus), shutter speeds (for confetti and bride walking down aisle) and also people skills - there is a lot of charm and cajoling groups required. You also need a good editing workflow in Lightroom. Maybe go on a course?
