what do you think of this sequence of images.

In terms of composition it was as i had envisioned it prior to the event. My second flash failed to fire for any of the shots ( it was tested 1 hour previously ) and the groom did the whole 1- 2- 2 and a bit - 2 and a bit more count down so only around half of the shots were exposed properly as the main flash failed to recharge quickly enough (again new batteries fitted just prior) . all in all i am happy with them especially as it's only my second wedding, and my first attempt at the bouquet toss.
Would you have shot this any differently, and would you try to even out the exposures ie darken the correctly exposed ones a bit and lighten the dark ones or just leave them as they are.

Thanks Stewart.

I'd leave them as they are - you captured the emotion of the event beautifully - and invest in a CP-E3 battery pack before your next wedding...

Thanks Jamie, i'll leave them as they are . I thought about the battery pack but i will have to wait a while until i can buy one ,but if the need arises i can always hire.

Thanks Stewart.....

I think the images are fine, but you could tighten the presentation by taking it down to 3 or 4 really strong images and skipping a couple of the repetitive images.
