We did the disposabl camera route, and got the usual assortment of weirdness that goes along with it, but they were some of the most fun.
Our photographer was also more expensive for this bit, and we didn't do a cake cutting, so didn't need formal shots of that.
I have done a few weddings myself, and I can tell you as the photographer, it is the least enjoyable part for doing photos - it is the end of a long day and getting shots of people eating/drinking/giving speeches is not the reason you do photography. Granted there is lots of time to get those candid shots, but I think that having 12-20 (how many tables) of cameras with different ideas and shots is the way to go.
One of the other things that is worth checking into is whether you get the negatives/digital images as part of the price. Some photographers include it (that's how I do it), some make you wait some period of time and then let you buy them and others only let you buy prints from them.
