To keep it simple for my client's I give them Edited High Res JPG images and if they specifically ask for RAW then I provide them those. RAW format doesn't work on most consumer's pc's and JPG works for most of their needs, they can enlarge prints up to 20x30" or greater without any noticeable loss in quality.
Cyberdemon mentioned that his wedding photog only took JPEG images, no RAW. We discussed that for a while and went back to the advantages and disadvantage and the last page or so has been maximizing RAW images with lots of DR.

I've printed JPG up to 50" and, looking at the image in my office, probably could have gone up to close to 72". It's from a full-frame body with only medium pixel-density.
