They look perfectly fine to me too, unless you want to add some glow or highlight diffusion - that some people seem to love in wedding photography.
Maybe you could smooth down some areas of the bride's skin in #2, like the visible vein on her arm or some shadows on her chest that could be lighter, but that's more a matter of the couple's taste. _________________ C&C and editing of my pics are always welcome

I usually add 'glow' I make a duplicate layer in photoshop. Make sure that foreground colour is black and background colour is white on your toolbar. Then select background image, turn off background copy. Then go in filters > distort > diffuse glow. Switch grain to 0 and adjust the glow amount until the face has almost no details - just the eyes and mouth will be great. Switch on top layer and reduce opacity until you think its good. This has an opacity of 80%. Enough to make a difference but not enough to make it look odd. In print the slight glow looks really good,
left normal, right with glow.
Not the best pic but I have only a few photos that I can use on a public forum.
Oops! I guess this may be better
