Judging by these shots you look technically solid--these are all well-exposed and color balanced.

It seems to me that that your awareness of background and proper positioning needs work, which isn't surprising if this was your first.

I'm okay with the white blowout in 1 (congrats for exposing that one properly), but the red on the side and the green plant bother me. And if there was a door that was letting that light in, you may have missed on opportunity to 'frame' them.

Shot 2 may have been taken after getting straight on shots from the aisle--but just in case you did all your processional shooting here, you can see that this position doesn't exactly leave with an ability to control the background (note the gentleman behind them who sort of stands out in the shot.

3 could have been framed way more closely to focus on their expressions.
