Get the best zoom for the Canon you can, and, if you haven't already got one, borrow / hire a good quality (bright, quick recycling) flash, with a bounce / diffuser device. Don't bother with the prime - no one cares really, and the stress of trying to get good images with 1.4 will destroy any enjoyment you have of the wedding.
As others have said, use the Fuji for the informal stuff at the evening reception.
The big thing that I always got wrong was the backgrounds - put the gear on auto, and pay attention to the backgrounds, the framing, weird venue stuff (I photographed the bride coming through a door with a "Exit" sign above her head once).
