I love the color contrast between her hair, the yellow flowers and the red in her dress.
Nice shallow DOF.
Good composition of your wife.

There are three things that bother me and would make this a super photo.

1. The small or lack of catch light in her eyes.Though there is a little bit from the reflection of the flowers. Bringing me to #2.
2. The yellow cast on her face is distracting. Adding in a white reflector (or skrim) or even a little bit of pop from a flash would fix both the catch light and the color cast in her face.
3. The horizon dead center of her head. If she had knelt down etc, then the flowers would have been the majority of the background.Also, if you had brought a step ladder that would have allowed you to raise the camera angle. Sometimes this can also be achieved by backing further away and zooming in more.
