In that situation I would calmly step into the aisle and hold my hand up to temporally stop the bride and groom. I would have told them several such prearranged signals before at the rehearsal, my most used one is hand moved up and down to slow the processional and recessionals down, they always walk to fast.Not if the camera freezes up.
Bride and father start walking down the aisle. Camera freezes. You frantically switch it off. Nothing happens. Still frozen and on. You yank the battery. Put the battery back in. And then...a) you try again and it immediately freezes or b) you switch from "record separately" to recording to the SD slot and maybe that works.
Bride and her father are already at the altar.
Option 3 would be to immediately yank the lens off the R3, yank the lens off your second body (R5), put the lens on the R5 and start shooting. Bride and father are just walking past you.
