Dump the guy and make him feel that he deserves to be dumped. Wear the shit boot and make sure to leave a footprint on his ass for entertaining story to tell others.
There are plenty of young and talented photographers around with an excellent equipment.
I'd personally pick the one with Canon 1D* body and L-class lenses. RAW files and full copyright ownership is mandatory and no negotiable. Make sure to pay flat, all inclusive decent fee for everything. Pay 25% upfront + 25% upon wedding end, 50% upon inspection of finals. Make sure he carries external lights and knows how to use them.
