Hello Takero,
again a very good photo. I like facial expressions of all the three people! especially the lady who is on the right (she seems to be looking directly at you).
The crop seems to be too tight on both sides but I think you yourself know about it. It appears there were other people standing too close to these three...
The bride's white dress looks a bit overexposed to me to see all its details (but maybe it's the colour gamma of my monitor?) Anyway she seems to be in the limelight and, of all the three, is the first who attracts attention in the photo.
best regards,
Elena
