>Canon 40mm 2.8 STM X 2
Sharp lens but sluggish AF. Use the Sigma instead.

>2 battery grip
Not useful, but keep charged batteries at hand.

I would go with a 24-70mm, but you can manage it with the 18-135mm.

Both models have do pretty well with AF but I'll try and stick with the sigma. I might try and rent a 24-70

Dont rent anything unless it is a 2nd body. Showing up to a wedding without a backup camera is irresponsible. Shit can go sideways and if your main body dies you need to be able to switch and continue shooting without your clients knowing anything is wrong

Are you the main one or just tagging along?

You can keep the 50mm on one body for portraits and couple shots, and something wider on the other for group shots.

Tripod rarely is of much use, you'll be moving around a lot and the place will prolly be crowded, people will trip over it.

>>EOS 80D + Battery Grip + 3LPE6N
OK but lose the grip. Bring a charger.
>>EOS 70D + Battery Grip + 3LPE6
OK, as above.
>>Tamron 70-200mm 2.8 VC mki X 2
OK, but you have 2? Take 1.
>>Sigma 50mm 1.4 Art
OK
>>Canon 40mm 2.8 STM X 2
OK, but you have 2? Take 1.
>>Tokina 11-16mm 2.8
>>Canon 18-135mm STM
I'm inclined to say leave one of the above lenses at home. Too much gear to drag around. Probably leave the 18-135 at home. Use Tokina as main lens.
>>Yongnuo YN560III x 2 + Speedlight controller
OK
>>Promaster ballhead tripod with quick release
Leave at home
>>32GB SanDisk Pro + 64GB SanDisk extreme
Too high. Smaller 8GB cards to reduce risk of a card going dead.

For my first weddings I had a pair of Canon 100Ds, one had a 24-70mm 2.8 and the other a 50mm 1.8. It covered a good range and held up OK in low light.
