yikes... well not to repeat things that have been said but I agree. Your processing is all over the place.
1) the color is off, it makes their faces look purple! You need to do a selection around them and adjust the levels/exposure and color.
3) definitely too soft and over processed. Did you use an action for that? Is your monitor calibrated?
5) Again too soft and red imo.

Here's some re-edit samples I did for you.

#3 would be awesome if it were in focus but it's still OK. I just used Silver Efex on it using the Antique Plate I on it and it looks SWEET!

Shampoo sounds like an unfortunate name for a hair product.

None of them are flattering to either bride or groom. No real emotions caught.
Processing is not consistant.

I think that anyone who are not sure of the basics should not be acting as Wedding Photographers.
Looking at the watermark and website.

Sorry to sound harsh but just saying what I see.

I'm sorry, but I would not count #3 as a keeper and try to avoid sending to client.

EDIT: I see from the EXIF in the second number #3 that you shot at f/1.2. That wide open it's often hard to get anything in focus and with two people there it's surprising the picture is in as much focus as it is. You should've have shot that more around f/5.6 depending on how far away you were standing. F/8 or more wouldn't have been a bad idea to ensure both people were firmly in focus as you have to focus on one or the other.

On #3 it looks like you just focused on the middle of the door and were standing kind of far away so the picture is just generally out of focus which saves it somewhat.

This photo (external link) taken at f/2 on a 135L shows the kind of picture that f/1.2 will usually produce when done right.
