2 clips on same event

I'm editing a wedding cermemony. Two clips were shooted on the same event. They have different angles taken on same event with same audio background. How can I put the two clips on a project, and choose the better scene to be on the resulting output?

You have what is known as a Two Camera shoot.

Put one clip on one track and one on a track below it.

Try to sync up the audio.

Then cut the top track anytime you want the bottom one to show through. Also are you using Vegas or Vegas Movie Studio?

Take a look at Vol 1 #9 of my newsletters for three manual methods of cutting a multi-cam event. You might also try searching here for "Multi-cam" or "Multicam".
