They both look a little stiff. I think I'd crop in let the couple fill the frame.

I like the placement of the couple within the setting, and the overall pose. I would have had him turn in toward the bride a little more. For some reason, the faces seen a bit out of focus to me. Could be the distance. The details just don't seem crisp, but that could easily be more from the web resizing.

The light is a little flat and I would warm up the tones just a tiny bit. That's a great spot to catch one with them looking at each other as well.

I like the shot very much, and see only those few places for improvement.

Thinking the same! Great shot

What is working well here are:
- The pathway lines on the left and right of the couple and how the curve stops right where they are.
- The tree to the left of them.
- The bride being on the right. (had she been on the left, the lines would not have worked so well)
- Her pose with her head tipped towards the groom forming an S-shape with her body

Areas for improvement:
- His left hand is sneaking out behind her, underneath her elbow.
- His stance is a little stiff. (mostly forgiven because I think everyone is more likely to look at her than at him!)
- Where the natural light was fairly flat, a little dodge & burn could add some emphasis to the picture.
