Depends on whether you want to take photos or not.
The main advantage I see for the DSLR (when shooting as a guest) is the
flash doesn't turn on automatically as it does with many P&S cameras.
That could be a factor in some church weddings where they don't allow
flash during the ceremony.

Christine,
I always take my camera and shoot photos.
I stay out of the hired photographer's way and
often shoot from the pews or background.
I usually put the best shots up on Picasa and
send the link to the bride and groom.
Mothers of the B&G often love the quick feedback.
