He said to use SRGB because that is closest to what labs use. He also said that most people would be hard pressed to see the difference between a shot done in Adobe and srgb. If you shoot in adobe rgb then have it printed in srgb you're slicing off information at either end of the spectrum and your picture is going to look like it is lacking colour information. He showed a demo of the photos done this way. The one shot in adobe then printed in srgb looked like crap compared to the ones shot and printed in srgb.
Supposedly the end of the spectrum in adobe is the same as the end in srgb, there is slightly more in between in adobe this is why their spectrum is slightly larger. But in the end he says there isn't much difference and you're better off to simply shoot srgb. That's what he shoots.
I figure if it looks good, clients are happy and it is adequate for what you want to show, then why waste the extra steps doing conversions. For weddings it isn't necessary as no one is even going to tell any difference.
One other tidbit of info that he mentions a few times is that he only ever shoots in medium jpg for weddings. He also had an 8x10 which was shot on a 3 megapixel camera and one shot on a 12 megapixel camera and it was very hard to see the difference side by side, if you weren't comparing right beside each other it would be very hard to know which is which, the photographers there couldn't tell unless they were side by side.
