So im filming a friends wedding pretty soon and I'm not sure what I need exactly for a microphone. I know I need a laviler mic but idk much about. Like how does it go from the mic in the bride and groom wirelessly to my camera. I have a dvx100a. Any help would be greatly appreciated
 
You're going to need more than a mic. A mic on the groom and a mic on the preist/pastor/officiant at the very least. But you'll also need a way to record ambient sound (the room/crowd), plus any music and readings. One camera with two record channels won't suffice without a mixer. At least a second sound recorder, if not a second camera, will give you much more flexibility. You may be better off renting what you need rather than buying something that won't do you much good.

There's an entire forum here dedicated to Audio. You might want to check out the stickies there for some helpful sound resources. Here's a starting place:
