I agree that an assistant would be extremely useful. If I had an assistant, then I could also use a wheeled case because I wouldn't have to worry about both hands being free.
The last reception I shot, I used 6 flashes - 4 off camera (rectangular but somewhat irregular reception requiring 2 flashes at special positions where the other 2 wouldn't reach/were giving bad shadows) and 2 on-camera. I do often use 5-6 flashes for a reception, but that does include on-camera for fill.
Today is only pre-ceremony photos. I will bring 2 flashes, two fully ready cameras, and about 5 lenses (14, 24, 35, 50, 85). It won't be hard to carry around, and I could always not take 50 if I wanted to. If I had my 16-35 fixed from Canon (gone back for the 4th time without fixing it yet), then I could get by with 16-35, 35 and 85. These smaller, shorter sessions are definitely becoming more desirable to me.
