Nice!

#1: the blur added in PP seems like it's distracting me too much. It may be because I know it didn't come naturally from the lens. Or maybe it's because I want to look at the chair, mirror, and flower girl dress since they all seem to stand out, even if blurred. If the B/G like it, then good job.

#8: Did you use a lung shutter for this? How long? Or was it done in PP?

#1 is in lens, my 24mm TS-E creates that look.

#8 is multiple 30sec exposure stacked in photoshop.

Very nice. I especially like the ring shot and the shot of the cake. The pictures of their family on the cake were, well, icing on the cake..

Please keep on sharing more CTP. I like your work and would like to see them more often.

I usually do not write C&C b/c I still have a lots to learn myself but since you are welcoming them, here are my 2 cents:

1. TS is nice but there are still a little too much going on to look at and there are taking the focus away from the dress IMO. I wonder how it would look if you shot portrait to include the whole light fixture. I don't move too much stuff around me to get my shot, but if I were you, I'd move the bench behind the dress away.

2. It's a hair bright on my monitor, especially the left side of her dress. Nice dress setup!

3. Nice angle. Were this taken by your 2nd Photographer or you were racing with them to get back to the Ceremony site before them?

4. Looking good!

5. I would include the entire reflection or not but cutting by the main rock.

6. I like the idea of showing the whole table with picture frames include here as well. The vertical beam on the left and the black metal plate behind the cake top are distractions. I'd move 1 or 2 step to the left and step on a chair to frame the cake somewhere b/w window w/o having the cake top chop off by the horizontal beam.

7. Beautiful light! The orange lens flare in the middle is a distraction, I'd clone it out. I'd have them step out of the tall grass b/c those tall grass covered their feet and it make them look short.

8. It's stunning and I am drooling. If possible please share your technique in details. I'd love to learn how to make this awesome shot.

Sorry , if I didn't make sense on my C&C. English is my second language.
