Lastly, when you are thinking about selling your K-x, drop me a line!

The DA50/1.8 or DA70/2.4 are much cheaper than the DA50-135, and would be good for portraits in controlled situations. The Tamron 17-50mm f2.8 would be a cheaper alternative to the DA16-50mm, as a fast general purpose wide-zoom. The Tamron has better IQ, but isn't quite as well built.
The old Pentax DA16-45mm is also worth a look, although it's slower at f4.

If the K-5's image quality is any better than the K-30's than it's extremely marginal. What the 14-bit vs. 12-bit RAW means, however, is that you're more likely to be able to rescue an incorrectly exposed shot in Post Production.
The K30 looks like 95% of the camera that the K5 is, at half the cost. (In fact it's actually slightly better in some areas, like AF). For weddings, two K30s in white would be sweet!

Luckily the Kr and K30 give you the choice of AA or L-ion rechargable batteries.
