It's not just about whether you get caught though. Here in the UK there's now absolutely now way a wedding videographer can be accused of not being able to get the appropriate licence to include copyright music - there's several sites available to do this. And it's not expensive.
But what's more important is that we're all creative people that want to protect our right to be considered the owner of our material. As such, it seems somewhat counter-productive for us to use other people's work for commercial gain without permission and without paying. After all, if a videographer uses music without permission, he should expect his clients to simply make their own copies of the DVD.
