Getting the photograph right in camera without flash

I was having a conversation about photography which led on to me saying when I reach a venue I always talk to the officant to see where they would like me to stand throughout the wedding ceremony and whether I can use flash or not. I described a wedding where I couldn't use flash for parts of the ceremony.

Me: I shot the whole wedding ceremony without flash.
Them: How did that go? Did the wedding photographs come out?
Me: Yes.
Them: I guess you could lighten them in the computer.
Me: I guess I could, but I got the exposure right in camera.

Professional wedding photographers carry cameras and lenses to allow them to work at low light levels without flash, should it not be permitted during your wedding ceremony.
