Flowers are washed out, but it does help to draw your eyes to her face.
I may not have cropped it so tightly on the bottom and right - her wedding ring is only just in the photo and you've lost some of her hair.
Not sure what era of style would be but was going for a old vintage style magazine effect. I am pretty pleased with the results but perhaps should of explained in post one that it had been processed like that and not straight from camera.
I like the warm colour balance. Gives it a bit of a warm summer day atmosphere.
Since the flowers aren't completely blown in the original, I'm sure you could retain the highlights with an extra layer and a mask to paint them back in.
TBH I think these would be much better without the overkill on the processing - for example no. 2 has very obvious haloing around her boobs, and also round her back - no 3 is also overblown.
I do like no. 4 though its the best of the lot by a long way, more natural and less forced
no. 5 needs straightening and I'm not sure how you've processed but you've introduced a colour cast to both his shirt and dress.
i do actually quite like the low saturation / washed out look, works very well imo, but each to their own, and as someone said, as long as the bride and groom were happy...

Personally, I like the washed out look. Horses for courses & all that. My ex is a wedding photographer who is absolutely brilliant at this style, & she is now charging around £2,500-£3,000 per wedding because it's a really unique look & feel. Not every couple will like it, & obviously you'd want to discuss their needs/desires well beforehand, but it's a highly worthy outcome
