First Impression - the most important one:
What a lovely impression this couple makes .. I kinda hope their kid wins!

Composition:
This is ok .. not fantastic wow type. Things to look at would be having a person on their left side with a good DOF type blur on them as well as those on their right side ... hard to do I know.

Subject:
It met the challenge, and I think that you met the challenge well ... what is funny is you got the same comments I got ... "would like to see more of their faces"... hard to turn when you can't let them know you are photographing them without giving up the game :)

Technical (Colour and light):
As you said ... light was not good but I think you did good with what you had.

To get a Ribbon?:
It was a good solid photo, it just lacked the added wow that the ribbons got this time ... I think it is a very good shot though.

Summary:

Good shot, maximised what you had ... and going on to do better and better things ... it was a good try.

This is interesting, but I find it confusing as the black and white melds together the image and the mirror image.
