With all due respect, I don't need a lesson in light and you clearly don't understand the type of setup I'm talking about. I have no issues with my main on-camera lighting...I'm talking about settings on remote distributed flashes that are used to build ambient lighting. They point into the center of the room and aren't bounced at all.

Really? If you know how it all works, why ask for the advice in the first place? After hundreds of weddings, I tend to use my lights to control my lighting. I tend to bounce my flash not only for a softer light, but for less fall off. Before this, I never realized I just could use the same 'ole power setting on each flash and it would simply create the lighting ratios, contrast, etc that I envisioned. Thank you for setting me straight. I wish you the best.
