How do I start in the wedding photography field?

I shoot mostly nature and landscapes and I have no portraits in my portfolio, but I would like to try shooting a wedding. How do I get into this? Maybe I could offer to be a second shooter for a lower end but established wedding photographer in the area?
Also, I am shy and uncomfortable with people having fun at parties.
 
Hi. As a wedding photographer myself I started out talking portraits of friends. I then did a wedding for $200.00. You have to get practice though. Try different backgrounds and locations. Just focus on people for a few weeks. I would also recommend browsing other photographers websites like this one: http://pinpointphoto.net. Practice makes perfect!!! Good Luck!!
