I recently purchased a new pair of EV ZXA1-Subs
which I will be pairing with my JBL powered speakers as tops...
But I will wait until I get to set it all up at a gig before I post some pics.

I did, however, realize that I was bringing the JBL's as backups,
and to use as a ceremony system.

SO today, I was shopping for cables for the new subs...
and I saw this little beauty.
The Samson Expedition XP40iw.

only 40-watts, but plenty enough for a ceremony.
It comes with a built in wireless mic I can use for the officiant.
It has an IPod dock.
It is super light, can be mounted on a stand..
and best of all..it has a rechargeable battery that lasts 8 to 10 hours.
(so I can place it where "I" want to place it...not depending on where the power is)

Let us know how it sounds.
 
Toy is right. Neat little unit...but this is not enough to properly handle someone's wedding ceremony.

I suppose it depends on the size. The basic need is to hear the vows, and it will probably handle that for a crowd up to 150 given the event is generally pretty quiet.
 
Looks like its about $300.

I can understand if this is to mic the officiant...only...but I was thinking more about ceremony music. One six inch 2-way?

in my area, a wedding with more than 150 guests is rare.
and naturally, the outdoor ceremonies are even smaller.
I can always use my backup system as a ceremony (as I have done until now)
if I get a real big one.
 
Nice find! I have a neighbor who was looking to buy a small ceremony system for ~10-20 people. This would be perfect.
