Light

Turn them into the window, not the room

Flat indoor light is usually a facing problem, not a gear problem.

Find the brightest window. Turn the subject 45 degrees toward it so one cheek is lit and the far cheek falls off. Do not add a flash yet. Take one frame, then take a step left. If the catchlights disappear, you rotated too far. On a wedding morning this saves you when the room is yellow tungsten and the window is daylight. Expose for the face, let the room go a little dark.
