It's the main reason I stay with full frame DSLRs.
My slowest lens is the 70-200 f/2.8. Apart from that, I never shoot at apertures smaller than f/2. There's just a 3D quality I enjoy in a photo with sharp in-focus areas, surrounded by areas falling out of focus

I ventured into mirrorless in the last few years - at first because of lower cost of upgrade, and then later because of the versatility and portability. Still, I miss the accurate and fast autofocus of DSLRs.
Although I can still do bokeh on my mirrorless, the focusing for moving subjects has trained me to shoot with f/4 or higher almost always to reduce out of focus shots.

Plus SPP with anything Merrill or above is an absolute nightmare. It takes a solid 5 seconds to see the effect of moving a slider, and this is with my hyper-threaded quad core machine. Night. Mare.
Good to see you I also ventured into mirrorless. I love the size and convenience for street photography etc, haven't really looked back. It's rare I want bokeh for my style but as you say its easy enough with mirrorless anyways. My panasonic 50mm 1.7 is quite creamy!
My kit these days is two Olympus EM-5 bodies (sold OM1 as I didn't think it was any better) and 3 lenses. 15mm, 28mm, 50mm, (in 35mm equiv) I also own a Fuji X100 which I use for portraits. Yes its 35mm equivalent, but I like this amount of distortion to play with.
So.. I can fit my whole kit into a smallish camera bag. Much better than humping around two DSLR bodies and large lenses.
I don't shoot weddings (yet). but it seems that your subjects are always at ease with you. That is an excellent asset as a photographer. Great job! I have no doubt that they will be happy with your photos.
Also, you should add an "About" section to talk a little about yourself, and hot-link your instagram link and email. It is helpful for prospective clients to know a little about you, your experience, and where your work has been featured, etc.

No experience with the Micro 4/3rds system here, but I definitely love mirrorless for their portability.
I adore the Fuji cameras. The controls are intuitive and has an excellent analogue control layout, and the colour rendering is gorgeous. This saves me alot of time when I edit the photos.
Currently shooting with a Fuji X-T1 90% of the time. My Sony A7 collects dust despite its technical prowess; I just find no joy in using it.
If you haven't already, I highly recommend trying out the X-Pro2. It may suit your style of photography quite well. The images had significantly more discernible detail than my 24MP full frame A7.

Great stuff. I would love to be all Fuji, as I also think their cameras are amazing. The X pro2 looks fantastic and I've read a few reviews of it. Its out of my price range for now so I could only go for the pro1 at present. I've also owned the X1, X2 as well as my current X100 and I haven't got anything bad to say about them. The lay-out, style and pic quality is fantastic. The only thing that doesn't compare to my Olympus is the AF speed. The Oly's are fantastic in this regard.

Also, I am toying with the idea of getting an older Canon 1Ds Mk3 body for my Canon lenses (50 f/1.4 and 135 f/2), but not too sure right now.
