What are some professional quality lenses for wedding and studio Photography?

I'm getting into a little bit of wedding photography and hoping to get into some portrait photography (Fine Art, family, studio etc) and im just wondering about some good, no great lenses. I use nikon gear so the lenses will be on either a Nikon D80 or D700 and im looking at:

hehee, I like you already, your shooting and that D700 is looking quite tempting.

I'm going to tell you flat out the 70-200 VR is the finest chunk of glass ever made for full frame 35 mill photography. Other lenses are judged against this one.

It is clear, fast and it's usefulness has no comparision

Draw back include, heavyness, a long lens and a giant price tag.

If your into portaiture, a fixed 100mm lens is god, but that lens is limited. Not to say you shouldn't have it, I would get both, the 70-200VR and the 100mm.

Of course the D700 will smoke all the half serious people in here, so I strongly suggest that one too.

Your probably looking at 2600-3000 for the D700 another 1500 to 1900 for the 70-200VR, but if your not serious, then why buy crap? Get these lenses and forget all the jokers that don't know a lens from a hole in the ground.

p.s. usually the 70-200 is hard to find, most if not all pro's own this lens, they can wait months for it to come around. Nikon only makes it for a short period every year. If you wait you may miss out on probably the finest glass ever made for 35mm photography.
