There's something weird about the pose/expressions in #2, but I also like 6. Pretty sky!

I love 3 and 4, but 6 looks a little bit ruined cos the lighting on the couple looks a bit off, was there flash?

I think they are all fine except for number 2. That pose doesn't work for me because SHE is in the dominant position that I might typically have put the man, and the short sleeves and position of her arm make the white skin detract visually. I think I know where you were going when you put her arm up like that, it shows her engagement ring, but at the cost of having him look "trapped". No matter, you got lots of great shots that I'm sure they were thrilled with, so congrats on your good work!

But he IS trapped! LOL! In all seriousness I agree with your points about the positioning on #2.
