Diffuser Softbox Nikon

Starting wedding photography?!?!?
Alight, first off...I have to start sometime or somewhere, so why not now.
1) I'm 17, and I am starting up a little side business for my photography.
2) I have had tons of experience with the aspects of photography: http://www.flickr.com/photos/vangorkumphotography/sets/72157623193786470/ and people tell me that I need to start charging for photos, which I want to do.
3) I think I have "decent" gear: Nikon D200, 18-55mm, 50mm f/1.4, 70-300mm, speed-light, 24" softbox, reflector disks/diffuser disks.
4) My question is, what to shoot for the portraits? I think I've got the "event" type for the reception, but I really need some help for posing, or "rules" for the portraits (engagement photos for example). I clearly understand that it's a creative art and you shoot what you want, but is there kind of a guide line? Maybe a book...?
5) Can someone point me in the right direction to get some understanding of what to shoot for a wedding?
Thanks!
from my understanding, wedding photography is HIGHLY stressful and is an 95% chance you take a terrible photo due to the amount of people at the event. if you're asking about the rules of posing etc then i think you should go and talk to a local wedding photographer in your area. many photographers will be happy to let you join them on work experience to get a taste of what its like, and while you're at it take photos of the wedding yourself to get a better understanding of what the bride and groom are after.
a wedding couple are arguabley the worse clients a photographer could possibly have as their demands are so high. if you are hired and get it wrong, you can't retake the images. so i strongly suggest working under a mentor until you feel confident enough to do it alone
Hope this helps.
